hi there

the (new) computer is connected to a domain

logging in with the local user there are no problems

logging in with the domain user, two issues that were present in the
old computer are back:

- “There are currently no power options available” when I click on the
system shutdown button
- disk C: is not displayed in the explorer (but regularly accessible
writing C: in the address bar)

According to google, both are known issues since a long time ago, both
have a thousand solutions to try, none seems to work

The question:
since connecting as a local user everything works fine, I can limit the
problem to the domain user; the company sysadmin (the domain
responsible) says they don't exist settable policies to produce these
effects, suggests "check the profile", so I ask you: what to check and
where?

TIA

hiding specific drives in explorer, and preventing sleep are things that *can* b
set via group policy of the domain.

That’s a group policy setting from the domain. See, for example,
https://www.prajwaldesai.com/disable-or-prevent-shutdown-option-using-group-
policy/

That’s group policy, too. See, direct from Deepest Microsoft, just as an
example:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/group-
policy/using-group-policy-objects-hide-specified-drives

Someone set these as group policies at the ADDS level. You’d need ADDS
admin access. You also need ADDS admin access to check your profile, not
least because you need access to Active Directory Users & Computers. See,
for example,
https://www.windows-active-directory.com/ad-user-properties-profile-tab.html

If you have that level access, killing a group policy is not a problem.
