    "On its own" is a nebulous phrase.

    It is very likely that it did not happen spontaneously. That's different from "human-generated" though.

    The most likely explanation is that there was either a group policy update or someone fat-fingered something, despite the change freeze. That's not the only way it could happen, though. Depending on how the actual storage is set up (e.g. if it's a SAN that's attached to the server, or if it's a set of local drives within the server, and if it's RAID or not) and the technical nuances of your statement about it being "unshared," there can be glitches with the connectivity or the storage system itself which can disrupt it.

    If it's a set of local drives on a Windows server, and that server is set up with a normal Windows (CIFS or SMB) share, then it's highly likely that a group policy update or a person screwed it up - but not impossible that there was a glitch. Most of the time, even disruptions like a drive failure in a RAID will not cause the drive to become unshared.

    On more complex setups, there are other things that can go wrong.

    The local event log on the Windows server should probably be enough to identify the issue. I'm assuming Windows due to the language of a "shared" drive and the reference to group policy.

    So the wife was like i know we were planning to look at going to Disney Land next October, but our group of friends(she is friends with the parents, and our kids are all friends) is going February, do you want to go then?

    Well since work is slow, i was looking and flights and hotels. And just booked Feb1-8 at disney land. Flights and hotels are cheaper then i thought, but still fucking expensive.

    So expensive. My brother drove down there with his wife and four kids for 4 days and he said it was $3500 all in.

    You live in Alaska, right? You'll probably like the weather in Florida in February, better than October. January and February are quite pleasant in Florida. I went in February in 2021 and my kid could still swim in the pool and ocean, but I didn't die of heatstroke.

    Alaska is close enough, I can basically see it. California is going to be a hell of a lot better 15c/60f then -5c/23f at that time of year

    Unless it is raining, Southern California in February is pretty damn nice. If you happen to arrive between rain storms it might even touch 70 degree. It is not really warm enough to swim, but throw on a sweater and you will be fine for the day. Get your Park tickets as soon as you see some kind of a discount for them. Those two parks are very expensive to get into.
