  1. id suggest for testing use /qb rather /qn as at shows a progress bar so you have some clue if its running or just quit without doing anything so msiexec /i something.msi /qb
  2. boo lol its one of my top 3/4 this year so much fun and one day i swear i will get to the dlc ive already bought and downloaded and that tbh could be a reason not to buy a one if you have a decent pc just play the exclusives on that as most are play anywhere. i just wish horizons 3 was more stable on pc (not tried it recently but when it came out i dont think i managed more than 10 mins before a crash)
  3. if youre looking at the smart 6065 just be aware a few things (i have 2 in a school) 1 no freeze/standby/remote there are literally volume/mute and sleep buttons on it and sleep is tied to some sort of motion sensor so if someone walks near it (manual says 5m) it turns on again 2 the inbuilt speakers arnt great 3 not running at even 1080p because of the monitor attached to the pc (and the pc is pretty pants) but picture is fine dont you need a hdmi 2/2.2 cable to even carry a 4k signal?
  4. no you just get the 40ish digit recovery key stored in ad on that computers account (obviously details redacted)
  5. you cant enctypt the image what you do is as above set up some gpos on how you want bitlocker to work (ALWAYS ALWAYS force it to store the recovery key in active directory imo) then just turn it on on the pc (if you have tpms you can do it as part of the mdrt/sccm deploy sequence i dont think that works if you dont have tpm chips in the pcs
  6. unifi install the software (or use cloud version personally id rather use local software) set it up, plug aps into poe and adopt them job done no licensing to worry about need more aps just add em and adopt/update(if needed)
  7. get zero dawn now then lol switch is also a good option (but the fifa version of switch is ment to be utter garbage (but then its ea so thats par for the microtransactions)) again its down to the games id recommend zelda botw to everyone its just so much fun (not sure about replay value but 1st time its just sheer joy running round the world) splatoon 2 is fun but short in single player, mario kart is mario kart, im really enjoying xenoblade chronicles 2, golf story was fun (though never finished it)

    well after saying xenoblade haddnt got me as much as botw etc ive played it at least an hour before work the last 2 days spent so long watching podcasts while playing it in handheld mode last night it had ~30% battery left and im 23 hours in since Friday evening lol
  9. tbh it depends what exclusive franchises you want as the hardware is pretty much on par (i still think at this point id go for a pro/x even without a 4k tv which is how i use my x) ms recently have had naff all exclusives and certainly no system sellers (im sorry cuphead is unlikely to get anyone to buy an xbox) wheras ps4 just this year has had persona 5 (granted also on ps3), horizon zero dawn(and its new dlc which is available as a single game now(or very soon) uncharted 4 (i think that might of been last year) uncharted lost legacy. the xbox has had another gears of war and yet another forza. controller wise its personal preference personally id rather use a duke/dreamcast controller than a ps4 controller i hate it(its too small the analogue sticks feel wrong and are placed wrong) but then im so used to my xbox elite controller or swith pro controller (damn backwards a/b x/y) unless you really want some ms game atm id lean towards the ps4 though and thats from someone who much prefers the xbox
  10. diddnt they bring the 2 versions together so you can use the built in windows client to sync/access into either/both versions now
  11. i dont think so i think i did manage to remove it one but decided its was more work that it was worth
  12. i wonder if they will match it with w10 and call it windows server 10 to be "on brand"
  13. true but they also add and remove some as well so you may as well assume you need to do this every 6 months or so for what its worth heres how i find em after installing w10 to a test vm Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -Online | Select PackageName >c:\appx.txt
  14. if you havnt got any id just go straight to 2016 as im not 100% sure theres an upgrade path i know there isnt an upgrade from windows 8 to 10 certification because of the way its now split so id have to start from scratch with client certification (i upgraded to 8 from 7)
  15. script at install time/1st startup BUT if you have roaming profiles/app data they may appear anyway if the profile knows say xbox exists heres mine for 1709 Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.GetHelp_10.1706.1811.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.Getstarted_5.11.1641.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.Messaging_2017.815.2052.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.MicrosoftOfficeHub_2017.715.118.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection_3.17.8162.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.Office.OneNote_2015.8366.57611.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.OneConnect_3.1708.2224.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.People_2017.823.2207.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.SkypeApp_11.18.596.0_neutral_~_kzf8qxf38zg5c Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_2015.8241.41275.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.WindowsFeedbackHub_1.1705.2121.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.Xbox.TCUI_1.8.24001.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.XboxApp_31.32.16002.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.XboxGameOverlay_1.20.25002.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.XboxIdentityProvider_2017.605.1240.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.XboxSpeechToTextOverlay_1.17.29001.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.ZuneMusic_2019.17063.24021.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwe Dism /online /Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage /PackageName:Microsoft.ZuneVideo_2019.17063.24021.0_neutral_~_8wekyb3d8bbwepause
  16. might be worth putting in the generic win 10 kms key in ive sometimes needed to do that

    HDMI issues

    my guess is that the pc thinks its sending sound but isnt my nuc does this from time to time if i turn it on before my amp(or if i turn the amp off while its on). If it dosent detect a hdmi device it defaults to some silly audio settings that my amp dosent like and i have to go in and manually change before i can get sound again. I suspect if the clevertouch is ever turned off it only detects the monitor and sends something that can handle but the clevertouch cant (again intel hdmi audio never did it on windows 8.1 but since 10 does it sometimes)
  18. ive also got some older hps that wont take an install of windows 10 1703 or newer from mdt (for some reason they will if i do it manually)
  19. my guess is the £50 option will be the least common as people will either go for the bottom 1 thinking nobody else will, the top one because its the biggest prize then you will get "clever" people who decide to go for the 2nd top/bottom thinking nobody else will have that idea so they will have it to themselves so going for one of the middle 2 will probably be the best bet (as again people trying to be celever might go for the 37.50 option avoiding the more obvious £50

    spent the weekend on and off playing Xenoblade chronicles 2. never played any other xenoblade game before but its fun (like persona its anime in game form so if "fan service" bothers you that could be an issue). Its not grabbed me as hard as botw/zero dawn/persona 5 in that i dont feel the need to play it every minute im awake lol but so far im enjoying it getting killed a lot but tbh its not a major issue just annoying and usually because 1 enemy attacks you then you get dog piled on i think earlier this morning /last night i got through about 10 enemies before i ended up dying because they just kept coming (and i diddnt think to run away lol). Definitely better in tv mode than in handheld just because its gorgeous to look at but you can see its pushing the switch to its limit and i have experienced slow down, texture pop and stuff just appearing enough to make me wonder how well it would run on an xbox/ps4 (never mind the x/pro in 4k). At least there are no pokemon/ff7 random battles you can try to avoid fights if you dont want to you just risk being underlevelled (and even at an appropriate level for the story there are things that will 1 shot you in the 2nd area there are monsters than knocked me for 7000hp (i had 1300)
  23. afaik its always done the same it should be fine on a real pc
  24. theres your problem it wont have a windows key in its bios so kms wont work as its only technically an upgrade license and with no key in the bios it has nothing to upgrade from
  25. what pc do you have it installed on it sounds to me like it dosent have a slic code in the bios and for that particular machine you may need to use a mak code
