It also failed to install OneDrive. Perhaps because it's a bus.
"My bus crashed today" "Oh my god are you ok?" "Yeah, it just messed up a OneDrive Update"

Welcome to /c/SoftwareGore!
This is a community where you can poke fun at nasty software. This community is your go-to destination to look at the most cringe-worthy and facepalm-inducing moments of software gone wrong. Whether it's a user interface that defies all logic, a crash that leaves you in disbelief, silly bugs or glitches that make you go crazy, or an error message that feels like it was written by an unpaid intern, this is the place to see them all!

Yeah, that would have been a much better joke title. Congratulations.
There can be only One Driver. que lightning strike
TIL the screens on a bus show a static html stored in a one drive directory. The gps location gets sent to an API which then updates the HTML file in the bucket. The screen just reloads itself every 10 seconds.
Something that could be done with a minimal Linux installation. But by all means, pay for a bloated windows license.
They probably didn't and are using the OEM license on a mini PC.
Yes, they are still paying for the license on the cost of the unit.
Yes, it would be much cheaper to use a NUC or ARM board, but you can't convince an administrator to stake their career on it.
Besides, if they are running a domain, and all their resources are on a domain, why would they use non Windows devices.
“Why would they use non windows devices?”
To avoid crap like what you see in the screenshot? 😆
C:\Users\Administrator...

I feel dirty.
Hello! Technologically inept person here. Is there something wrong with using Administrator as the device/user name?
Computers should never run day to day operations using an account with full administrative privileges and for Windows computers, the default full admin account is called Administrator. It's not so bad on a personal device but for businesses and public facing computers it's like asking someone to hack your computer. All anyone would need to do to compromise that system is plug in a keyboard and they could install remote control software or anything else they wanted. I hope that explanation helps!
Because one must drive the bus.
It should not fail to install OneDrive on a bus because it is a bus. It should install, drive the bus once and then uninstall itself.
Hence the name, OneDrive.
