Systems / Services Affected:
IT Services provides the N Drive (СÀ¶ÊÓƵ Share) for you to save your work files. However, running executable files (like .exe or .msi) from this folder increases the load on the file servers and may represent a security risk.
We are updating the N Drive to prevent you from running executable files from the following folders on Windows PCs:
You can still run executable files from your local folders (for example Downloads or C:\Temp), unless they require admin rights.
We do not expect any downtime or interruption to service.
