How to create mandatory profiles in Windows 10 Creators Update (1703) - HTG | Howell Technology Group
-
I managed to get it working in the end, followed the rankin guide but when copying the proifle don't tick the box for mandatory profile, it messes up permissions. I just need to try and figure out how to stop the welcome page popping up each time, tried a few methods none of which have worked.

Using 1703 and followed the guide earlier but I am having the same issue where edge pops up and then vanishes again straight after

Promethean ActivPanel issue with main display
mshill replied to mshill's topic in AV and Multimedia Related
Hi Jon Our version says AP5-FHD_r1.0.0028, what version is yours after the firmware update? Regards -
Hi All We are having numerous issues with our Windows 7 x64 computers and the new Promethean ActivPanel. We are finding that the main display keeps shifting to the Promethean panel and not the PC Monitor. We have tried swapping the cables round and setting the main display as the monitor and this works for awhile but when the machine is changed to extend or sometimes when it is turned on it shifts back randomly. Also, sometimes the screen adjust on the promethean is about a foot shifted to the right so the pen is also off and the screen is not displayed correctly. We have updated drivers, tried different orders of booting the screen and the machine but eventually one of these issues will always appear. This is on different machines around the academy and is happening about ten times a day! Any Ideas? Regards

Hi We are currently having issues with SCUP, we use patchmypc to publish updates to sccm and then deploy this out to client stations. The clients download the update but never seem to attempt to install the update. If I run the update manually it works fine. I can't find any errors in the logs, any ideas what could be the issue? Regards

Virtualbox + image for programming classes

Have you removed and re-attached the disk? and is it set to normal not immutable? -

Hi You need to go into Virtual Media Manager and release and delete the differencing vdi. Then change the disk to normal make the changes you wish. You then change the disk back to immutable after that and it will be remembered. Unfortunately you will probably lose the changes you have already made. If you change the disk to normal whilst the differencing disk is still attached it will always revert back to that. Regards -
I now have this working, but any idea how this could be set so it also works when scanning the document and printing

Hi All Trying to create a script that limits the number of copies a student can print, I have amended the number of pages script to try and achieve this but it doesn;t seem to work. Has any of the Papercut gurus got any idea why it is not doing anything. /* * Cancel large print jobs sent by students * * Members of the Students group are only allowed to print up to 100 pages. Jobs * larger than this will be canceled with a notification. This recipe demonstrates * group-level restrictions. */ function printJobHook(inputs, actions) { var RESTRICTED_GROUP = 'Students'; var COPY_LIMIT = '3'; /* * This script needs to check the number of pages in the job, so return here * unless job analysis is complete. The only job details that are available * before analysis are metadata such as username, printer name, and date. * * See reference documentation for full explanation. */ if (!inputs.job.isAnalysisComplete) { // No job details yet so return. return; } /* * If the user belongs to the disallowed group and the job has more pages than * the limit, cancel the job and send a notification (if they are running the * client software). */ if (inputs.user.isInGroup(RESTRICTED_GROUP)) { if (inputs.job.copies > COPY_LIMIT) { // in the restricted group and printing over the limit, cancel the job actions.job.cancelAndLog('Not allowed to print more than ' + COPY_LIMIT + ' copies.'); // send message to the user's client tool actions.client.sendMessage('Your print job has been canceled because the ' + 'number of copies (' + inputs.job.copies + ') was more than the maximum allowed (' + COPY_LIMIT + ')'); // log a message for debugging actions.log.debug('Canceling job from user ' + inputs.job.username + ' in ' + RESTRICTED_GROUP + ' group because the number of copies (' + inputs.job.copies + ') was more than the maximum allowed (' + COPY_LIMIT + ')'); } } } Regards

Hi All We currently use Virtualbox for running our programming software but have big performance issues when running software such as Visual Studio. What spec machines are you generally running the software on and what sort of ram are you giving the virtual machines? Regards

We are still using the same version of VBox and have not changed any of the settings. This has happened to every machine (160) at the same time which doesn't make sense.
