Win10 Wireless When APPS Disabled

[ITGURU]

I'm setting up the first laptop on windows 10.

At the setup, select the wifi ,connects,and all is well.

However once joined to the domain and inheriting the windows 10 policy which locks down the APPS, i cannot choose a wireless network any more and the icon in the tray disappears.

Any ways around this?

I am sure you can create a WMI policy which works with any OS. I would create one which allows you to search for a wireless network.

 

I am sure if you look at your current gp which is locking it and copy the same one but only allow wifi to be enable for windows 10 only if you have restricted it for all OS

In Windows 10 its when you left click on the network (LAN) icon and you select a wireless network.

once i've added to the domain that no longer works - it doesnt popup with any networks or if you go through adapter settings, right click connect/disconnect

i'm now going to add 1 policy in at a time and see which one breaks it.

Seems like the best way on a blank OU and to keep applying one by one.

 

 

Have a look at this link where it says remove network icon

Tried toggling, no change.

Clean install with no GPOs applied - added one by one making sure showing in gpresult /r got them all added and it's working OK (for Now)

Although i've clean installed about 4 times yesterday so know it wasn't a dodgy install.
