[1909, ou] UE-V on Windows 10

[ranj]

Hi All

 

I am trying to get UE-V working on Windows 10 1909 and Windows 2016 GPO.

 

I have configured the storage location for the stored profile data and configured the GPOs.

 

If I run get-UEVConfiguration and get-UEVstatus on client machines I can see that UEV is enabled and the settings defined in GPO are enabled on machines.

 

I can see settings being written to the shared folder and this has the permissions as per Microsoft documentation.

 

It's just that the two machines I am testing with, they dont seem to be getting the settings from the other machines, currently they both have independent settings configured and I dont know which settings are being configured to the network share.

 

What am I doing wrong?

 

Help!

 

Thanks

Following with interest as I have the same issue.

I think you need to import the default templates in to Windows 10. I can send you my MDT script tomorrow if needed.

Thank you for your response, I thought a template was only needed if you wish to employ custom applications, third party, or line of business applications?

 

Do I need to install and configure the UE-V template generator or can I just use the default mentioned in this article:https://www.systemcenterblog.co.uk/2017/11/windows-10-ue-v-deployment-guide.html

 

Thanks

I just use the default, no custom ones. Not found a need to yet.

 

This is the PowerShell script I have in MDT (Pretty much a list of ones to register:

register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\DesktopSettings2013.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\EaseOfAccessSettings2013.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\MicrosoftInternetExplorer2013.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\MicrosoftNotepad.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\MicrosoftOffice2016Win32.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\MicrosoftOutlook2016CAWin32.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\MicrosoftWordpad.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\RoamingCredentialSettings.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\ThemeSettings2013.xml
register-uevtemplate C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\UEV\InboxTemplates\VdiState.xml

Hi @robyholmes

 

Just a question on this, as I have struggled to find it, how did you know where to find these details on the uev default templates? It doesnt seem to be detailed in the documentation unless I have missed it?

You see now your asking. I seem to remember following a guide on how to set it up, but I can't remember if they provided that script or if I came up with it. It's quite sometime ago.

 

Did it work for you or not? I might be completely wrong in needing that, I just know my setup works and this is what I have as part of MDT. No idea if it's surplus to requirements as I've never tried it without it.

I am not using MDT at all. My understanding is UE-V is now built into Windows 1909 and later and you dont need to install any client side tools as done previously.

 

Yes I got it working partly. It doesnt seem to be sync certain settings but it is able to do some.

 

Have to say the documentation isn't great out there
