Two Brand of Cars that come with Umbrellas in the door - Rolls Royce and Skodas! (tbf mines under the seat now - previous was in the door). On my second Octavia and love it. It probably has more road noise than a VW or Audi, but is better spec'ed for the money.

If the oscilloscope is generating print jobs with a specific nomenclature you try blocking by document name:

HEIC Images, deploying the codec/licence to Windows 10

MSI? http://www.edugeek.net/forums/how-do-you-do/222548-opening-heic-windows-10-a-4.html -
Won't ever be reliably able to block pre roll adds. They are served from same domains as videos. They are scripts that attempt to add user submitted domains but not so succesful.

I wouldn't worry about delay too much. Any gambling site will have the result before it is shown on live TV.

Not sarcastic Just something that should be simple - but Excel things

Complicated. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/display-or-hide-zero-values-3ec7a433-46b8-4516-8085-a00e9e476b03 https://excel.tips.net/T002174_Returning_Zero_when_a_Referenced_Cell_is_Blank.html For the most part I use: =IF(ISBLANK(Sheet1!A2),"",Sheet1!A2)

Just checking - Agents have to be manually created, are you logging in as an end user or an agent? We have Client ticked.

Strange, our users are 100% auto created at first login.

We use Osticket without pre-registration and AD. I think it is these settings on the User Settings page that are important IIRC

We had Modern Authentication turned on this weekend. For Outlook 2013 you need these reg keys: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/security-and-compliance/enable-modern-authentication?view=o365-worldwide Also had to update our Mosyle email profile for iPads - tick OAuth and get staff to re-login.

Might have to make the device web interface accessible to a computer and change it there ?

Breach reporting obligations
andy_b replied to gh5000's topic in Data Protection & Information Handling
When we had our LA breach pupil data our DPO had us contact the ICO. At the time the ICO said the LA should do the reporting, but we were welcome to offically bring it to the ICO's attention if we felt the LA weren't taking the necessary steps. -
If you wanted to use something like Autohotkey (https://www.autohotkey.com/) as an alternative, then something like this would do what you want and it would be fairly easy to replicate the rest of your script in a similar fashion: source := "C:\sourcefolder" destination := "C:\destinationfolder" Gui, +Toolwindow +Disabled Gui, Add, Text,, The script is working. Please be patient. Gui, Show,, Please Wait... RunWait, Robocopy %source% %destination% * /mov,,hide sleep 3000 # Just for testing to see message Gui, Destroy ExitApp

The problem is that spawning a message box using a "third party" be it Windows Script, Autoit or a custom message program, and keeping the message open while robocopy is working and then closing it when done from the current batch file. Could do it with taskkill but gets abit messy. As @ThomL said, might be better looking at another language.

It's ok, you can now do profile transfers... "We’re excited to announce that we’ve added a new feature called Profile Transfer to help make life changes easier. Profile Transfer makes it easy for anyone using your account to transfer an existing profile – including recommendations, viewing history, My List, settings, saved games and more – to a new account."

Tablets for assessment, safeguarding, etc.
andy_b replied to carlin_w's topic in How do you do....it?
We tend to lock down our "assesment" iPads so the only thing they can do is the assesment. Otherwise it is far too tempting to quickly load youtube and pass it to a pupil. We have tried a number of cases, and to be honest none of them will survive the kind of damage a pupil can inflict, so we tend to get supcases from amazon for ~£20 as a compromise. (I have seen an ipad in an otterbox case literally folded in half....) -
Firmware updates with many doors (and long RS485 lines) can be painful. Many years ago, Paxton recommended I that I untick the doors in Net2 Config and slowly re add after each "string" of doors had updated. Otherwise I had doors randomly locked out until the updates had been completed and it was chaos...

Chrome and Edge crashing and random user login!
andy_b replied to DalekSec's topic in Cloud Services
We have had a few reports of Edge causing BSOD this week - that is a new thing :/ -
Might be better using something like this? https://timeapi.io/swagger/index.html $timeData = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "https://timeapi.io/api/Time/current/zone?timeZone=Europe/London" echo $timeData
