  1. I have a scheduled task to run at 19:00 everyday which runs shutdown.exe /f pushed via GPO. Simple and works a treat! Get PowerMAN if you want reports etc but no need for software.
  2. -_- *Getting stabbed by teachers whilst you relax*
  3. 18/01/2012 - "Hi all, thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. Our technicians are aware of the issue and it should be resolved with a product update that will go live within the next 24 hours. Please let us know if the issue persists after that point. "
  4. Google don't communicate at all, do they?
  5. Reminds me of when I got stung with Lovefilm charging after 30 days of 'free' use unless cancelled.
  6. Can your LA do this? IIRC we paid our LA SIMS team to migrate ours for us. Don't have cost to hand currently.
  7. Our head did the tough mudder a while ago.. He was in pain on Monday!
  8. But is it started? Typically it does not start until an audio device is plugged in.
  9. I start the Audio service at logon for all users, this makes the PC think there is a device installed. Probably not the best solution but it was quick and worked!
  10. Just as a side note, you have your personal email address showing on a tab on that screenie Alex!
  11. As BKGarry said, we use this similar product for this: TintMy Screen | Software to improve your reading performance It is installed on every machine and the child must note what setting they use.
  12. And boy do they stick to that $220USD fine!
  13. To be honest, I can't imagine it's very pleasant to be playing 90 mins worth of Football in 50 degree heat!
  14. I have a Galaxy S3 and having just held a mates M8 I want one! The build quality feels far superior on the HTC.
  15. @kennysarmy What did you end up using? Would you possibly share what you used with me? I'd like to do this here.
  16. JunLib.net. As others have said, not free or cheap. I'm not aware of any free / cheap solutions that are any good.
  17. +1 for PRM Greentech.
  18. I use fine grained password policies assigned to security groups on Windows Server 2012 domain.

    GPO Advice

    I don't edit the default domain policy, its best practice. For things like that I created a GPO at the top level of the domain and set all generic settings there. Things like "Do not display last username, default logon domain, always use custom wallpaper" And yes, students GPO is at the Students top level OU.
  20. Then use Windows Components > Windows Explorer > Disable windows explorers default context menu. Note that this only applies to Windows Explorer and not IE or other applications.
  21. We make sure that a disclaimer is signed stating that they are AS IS and we take no responsibility for their use / performance / state.
