Theldron

Hi @DaveR, hope you are well. I'm Theldron2.0 from the other post (found the login for my old account) I am still waiting on Tucasi to come back to me re the MSI. Do you remember what things you had to register in C:\Windows please? Also I have copied the C:\SCO directory to another computer, but the username field is just greyed out and can't be touched, any ideas please? I am sure I have missed something or not copied something. I have copied it into Program Files\Sco as I don't like things on the root of C. Not sure if that is the reason. Thanks

Hi all, Hope you are well. Weird one has just reared its head. Over half-term I replaced the 2016 DCs with 2022 DCs, all went ok, except for a STAS issue, but that got sorted. Anyway now when I try to image a desktop when the image is nearly finished I get the OOBE of "Checking the connection to Microsoft" and it just stays on there. I left it all weekend and it was still on it on Monday morning. I can bypass with ctrl-shift-f3, but that's just a workaround. I have setup the devices as hybrid at the school to use WufB for the updates, but it was working fine before half-term. Not sure if DC update related or just being a pain. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Looks like there is a way to link M365 and Google Classroom, without needing to use Gmail or new logins. Just need 5 mins to set it all up.

Hi all, Hope you are well. One of my schools is working with RISE (Regional Improvement for Standards and Excellence) through the DFE. I have been told by the Head that this is all done through Google Classroom, but we are a M365 school. Is this correct if anyone else is dealing with RISE? As I really do not want to have to maintain a second system and give staff separate google emails unless I really have to? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi all, Hope you are well. Strange one, in one of my schools they have lost spell check in their M365 emails in Edge. It was working fine on Windows 10, but not in Windows 11, and I have not changed much if anything. Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks for the replies both. I have found the issue. The MDM authority wasn't set to intune. As soon as I clicked and saved that, and sync and restarted a machine it downloaded the policies.

If I go to device configuration in intune should the upgrade ring policy show up in there, as I only have default admx policies?

I have looked I cannot see any other policies, I have removed all WSUS ones. We are using A3 licenses.

Hi all, Hope you are well. Trying to setup WufB on Hybrid joined devices. I can see the devices in intune and have created Upgrade rings and added the test device groups into assignment. But the policies are not being downloaded to the devices. All I see in Windows Update -> Advanced -> Configured Policies is I have setup MDM in GPO. I have also checked our Sophos XGS is not getting in the way. Any ideas? Thanks

Ignore realised you need user auth for Hybrid join and my admin server account won't be sync'd with Azure AD Connect. I have read about Azure Update Manager using Azure Arc, has anyone used this, or what are you using for Server updates?

Hi all, Hope you are well. Our WSUS server has finally given up and I cannot be bothered to mess with it any more, as it's been nothing but trouble since the off. I am looking at setting up our devices as Hybrid and using WufB, but we have a Sophos XGS, which uses STAS and only allows internet access through user authentication. I am sure I can find some URLs to add as exceptions but wanted to reach our and check if somebody else has been in the same situation as me and how you managed to get around it? Thanks. Also I was told WufB doesn't do server updates, is this right? Doesn't seem right to me. Thanks again

@DavR Thanks mate, but still stuck at 0%. This is driving me potty. 2019 is fine.

Ok thanks mate, ill give it a go.

Hi thanks for that. I have looked at the link you put in but I already have a .esd in place. Do I get rid of this? No I don't have anything in place for WufB yet. I use Server 2016/2019 and they download updates fine, it just seems to be 2022.

Thanks but would prefer to stick with Microsoft WSUS or is WUFB ok?
