Microsoft released the last and final version of Windows Home Server in 2011. Since then homes with multiple devices have had to find their own work-arounds in the absence of a consolidated way to connect up to 10 computers for all-in one centralized backups, health monitoring, files sharing, printer sharing, remote access gateway, media streaming, and more.

But now Terry Walsh, eight time Microsoft Most Valuable Professional awardee and founder of the helpful websiteWe Got Served, is attempting to carry on the tradition of Windows Home Server witha new booktitledBuilding a Windows 10 Home Server.

“Detailed walkthroughs include a full guide to building a home server PC, configuring network settings for local and remote access, managing storage pools and Windows RAID arrays, protecting family user accounts and integrating Microsoft’s latest cloud services.”

It also provides in depth coverage of how to keep your data secure as well as your family safe. The Chapter List for the book includes:

Part 1: Building Your Windows 10 Home Server

Part 2: Configuring Windows 10 as a Home Server

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
