She had +reinstalled the Dropbox client herself, which created a fresh Dropbox folder and left her +original folder behind under a renamed path. The request had two parts: stand up her account +in GuruRMM (she had no client record) and install the agent on her machines, then resolve the +Dropbox problem. + +First set up GuruRMM. Confirmed no existing Bardach client via `rmm-search.sh`, then pulled her +canonical name from Syncro ("Bardach, Barbara", customer 3011084) to match the fleet's +`Lastname, Firstname` convention. Created the client + "Main" site (site_code DARK-WOLF-8508), +captured the one-time enrollment key, encrypted it to the vault, verified the decrypt roundtrip, +and pushed. Located her machines in ScreenConnect (BCB-OFFICE26 and LAPTOP-E5EKEJT8 both online; +BCB-OFFICE2023 and TRAVEL_PC dead since Feb 2026). Pushed the GuruRMM agent to both live machines +via SC `send-command` using the site-preconfigured install one-liner; both self-enrolled into +Bardach, Barbara / Main and reported online within ~40s. + +For Dropbox, ran a read-only diagnostic on the laptop confirming two folders both created that +morning: the new `C:\Users\Barbara\Dropbox` (default location, actively syncing per info.json) +and the renamed `olddropbox`. Howard had already done the hands-on remediation out-of-band: +renamed/moved the old folder, started the fresh sync at the default location, cleared Windows +Quick Links (which still pointed at the dead path and would have caused her to save into an +un-backed-up location), and installed/activated her paid Adobe software. Sync was in progress, +estimated 4-5 hours. + +Closed out in Syncro: created ticket #32528, documented the initial issue and resolution +(customer-visible), billed 0.5h remote labor against her prepaid block (16.75 -> 16.25 hrs, +invoice #1651008153 nets $0.00), set the block-hours invoice note, marked the ticket Invoiced +then Resolved, and posted bot alerts at each write. + +## Key Decisions + +- Named the RMM client "Bardach, Barbara" to exactly match the Syncro customer name and the + fleet's existing `Lastname, Firstname` convention (Wolkin, Robert / Shinn, Sharon). +- Deployed the agent via ScreenConnect `send-command` rather than emailing an installer — both + target machines were already in SC and online, so the site one-liner self-enrolls with no + staging/reassign step. +- Skipped the two stale SC sessions (BCB-OFFICE2023, TRAVEL_PC) — offline since Feb 2026, the + queued command would never run. +- Billed against the prepaid block (0.5h) per standard flow; invoice nets $0.00 and debits the + block.
