Hi Nick, Do you run that script as the User logon script? or as the Computer startup script?

Gareth, I run the below script before provisioning the image to the user: Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | Where-Object {$_.PackageName –notlike '*store*' -and $_.PackageName –notlike '*Calc*' -and $_.PackageName –notlike '*Notes*'} | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage –Online The script above remove all Microsoft junk and 3rd party bloated apps but keeps the Microsoft Store, Calculator and Notes app.

What about executing the below user Logon script? Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "2414FC7A.Viber" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "41038Axilesoft.ACGMediaPlayer" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "46928bounde.EclipseManager" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "4DF9E0F8.Netflix" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "64885BlueEdge.OneCalendar" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "7EE7776C.LinkedInforWindows" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "828B5831.HiddenCityMysteryofShadows" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "89006A2E.AutodeskSketchBook" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "9E2F88E3.Twitter" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "A278AB0D.DisneyMagicKingdoms" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "A278AB0D.DragonManiaLegends" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "A278AB0D.MarchofEmpires" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "ActiproSoftwareLLC.562882FEEB491" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "AdobeSystemsIncorporated.AdobePhotoshopExpress" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "CAF9E577.Plex" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "D52A8D61.FarmVille2CountryEscape" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "D5EA27B7.Duolingo-LearnLanguagesforFree" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "DB6EA5DB.CyberLinkMediaSuiteEssentials" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "DolbyLaboratories.DolbyAccess" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Drawboard.DrawboardPDF" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "E046963F.LenovoCompanion" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Facebook.Facebook" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Fitbit.FitbitCoach" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "GAMELOFTSA.Asphalt8Airborne" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "KeeperSecurityInc.Keeper" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "LenovoCorporation.LenovoID" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "LenovoCorporation.LenovoSettings" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Microsoft.MicrosoftSolitaireCollection" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Microsoft.MinecraftUWP" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "Nordcurrent.CookingFever" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "PandoraMediaInc.29680B314EFC2" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "SpotifyAB.SpotifyMusic" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "WinZipComputing.WinZipUniversal" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "XINGAG.XING" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "flaregamesGmbH.RoyalRevolt2" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "king.com.BubbleWitch3Saga" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "king.com.CandyCrushSaga" | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers "king.com.CandyCrushSodaSaga" | Remove-AppxPackage Would that be possible to remove the Windows 10 non-work related ModernApps (AppX)?

Yes that's what I use daily to free up disk space. But somehow it doesn't fix this issue. The work around is to reboot the whole VM to release the username directory with username.domain.066 and so on numbering.

Hi All, I'm having some issue here when my terminal server users accessing TS-FARM1.domain.com from the Windows RDP application: The User Profile Service failed the logon. User Profile cannot be loaded. That's the error message they see when tried to login to one of the Windows Server 2008 R2 RDSH (TS) that is presented to them behind 3rd party Load Balancer (Brocade Steel App). It is affecting random people in random terminal servers. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated to prevent this issue happening. Thanks in advance.

People, Can anyone here please assist me with the troubleshooting method of why some of the AD username in my Terminal Server farm duplicated with numbers at the end of it ? C:\Users\User1.domain C:\Users\User1.domain.001 C:\Users\User1.domain.002 C:\Users\User1.domain.003 ... C:\Users\User1.domain.028 C:\Users\User2.domain C:\Users\User2.domain.001 C:\Users\User2.domain.002 C:\Users\User2.domain.003 ... C:\Users\User2.domain.021 and so on ? This is happening in all of the nodes in the farm and for all user account.

So does the command above still works with folder that are deeply nested and longer than 255 characters long ?

OK, so what about the overall implementation maintenance over the long term ? I'm considering between Vmware View and Citrix Xen Desktop but not sure which path should I follow.

Hi Guys, assuming that only using MS Office and no multimedia features, does Citrix VDI solution cost cheaper for VDI deployment lesser than 400 users ?

Cool, thanks to all for the reply. Initially I was just thinking to ping them one by one but it is too much time to create the powershell script.

Hi People, I am having a problem with my MSCS cluster that I have just built on top of my physical RDM VM with VMXNet 3 NIC, it always failed in the error 1129 during network validation process of the heart beat network like in the following page (Content not found in each ESXi servers, I have created: vSwitch0 - Administration console, VMotion and HA vSwitch1 - VLAN with access to the entire LAN and internet vSwitch2 - no uplinks just dedicated network label for the MSCS heart beat network (in which the two VMs is in this VMnetwork label) I have assigned class A address in the heartbeat network according to Microsoft article into 10.10.10.10 and 10.10.10.11 no gateway, disabled NETBIOS, not registering it in the DNS and binding order#2 I can ping both nodes from each other end and also have disabled windows firewall entirely. So far the test failed only in this cluster heartbeat network configuration no matter what IP address I assign. Any kind of help and assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, How do you check if a certain server object is no longer in used in the Active directory database ? because for some reason like: 1. the server has been decommissioned 2. the server has been renamed 3. something else As for me, I do the ping test, but wondering if there is another smarter way in doing it before you right click and DELETE the object. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

yes that's what I'm talking about, the Enterprise Administrator account. I agree, what I should do is to securely keep and manage the usage of that account, we have rename it to something else but of course the SID stays the same -500 which means that this is still the super admin account if the attacker knows it. log shipping into dedicated syslog server ? how can we do that on the desktop and Windows server 2003/2008 ? for Linux and CISCO devices yes, we've been using that and I know how to set it up.

Hi People, I'd like to know what's your suggestion or the practice in your organization about the usage of DOMAIN\Administrator account ? At the moment my Windows servers in the domain can all be accessed by this domain administrator and do everything, however this is not the best practice according to the Security Auditor and my Risk manager. Please share your experience and thoughts here. Thanks.

Hi All, I'm looking for Fax sottware for replacing my departmental server, ideally this software should be able to receive and send a fax just like email (integration with MS Exchange Server would be a plus). Any idea please ? Thanks, AWT
