I have found some forums that suggest "grant the user exclusive rights" should be unticked (after all, administrator needs rights to backup) and others that look at offline files: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/929bb662-7576-46fc-a1ac-649a2848189b/folder-redirection-rights-issues?forum=winserverfiles

No we don't, I just looked it up because it seemed so outlandish. It does mention a "simulated" social media account later on in the SOW, but it is vague.

From the Scheme of Work for that BTEC: I've always hated Pearsons...

This one has me stumped. We have a Sharepoint site which acts as our Intranet. The home page has a series of web parts, and I use audience targeting to determines who sees them. We have one user, who, despite being in the same group as all other staff members, cannot see the web pages targeted to staff. Membership of the same group grants them the correct access to the libraries if accessed directly. It is only the audience targeting that appears to be broken, and only for one user. I've tried adding different groups she is a member of to the audience targeting, but that doesn't work either. The only things she can see are those that have no targeting. Does anyone have any ideas?

Just to add some detail to the above - you need a GPO - User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Control Panel - Settings Page Visibility. Enable and paste the "Show only" code above

Is it only happening for students? If a member of staff logs onto a student machine is it OK? If it is, that points to permissions - do students have the right to run Update.exe?

We are currently deploying Windows 20H2, which comes with Microsoft Photos 2019. The newer version of Photos includes the Video Editor. I have a package I can deploy post build to update Photos, but was wondering if it's possible to slipstream the newer version into the wim?

You could use a WMI query to only install to devices with batteries (only laptops have batteries!), just in case you ever have a reason to put a laptop in a different OU: SELECT * FROM Win32_Battery WHERE (BatteryStatus <> 0)

We have been fortunate that our trans students have chosen a name with the same initial, so our naming policy means they get the same username. I just change their display name as soon as I'm informed of the change.

We use admission number (stripping out leading zeros) and initials of preferred name for students, initial.surname for staff, with a number if we have a clash.

So you have an application that runs a bat file to set the wifi? Have you thought of adding a line to the file to copy a txt file to the workstation and set the existence of that file as the detection method?

I have one task sequence, and use a program called TSGui to ensure only laptops receive that particular step. You could alternatively put in a WMI query to look for a battery: Open the OSD Task Sequence and add the required step. Then open the options tab in that step, and add the following condition: WMI NameSpace: root\cimv2 WQL Query: Select * from Win32_Battery where Batterystatus > 0 TSGui allows me to run one task sequence for three domains, name machines and put them into the correct OU. It also allows me to filter applications to the machines that are licenced for it.

This is how I add the wifi settings in SCCM:

I would be endeavouring to move to two virtual disks, one with C and one with D. That will mean you will never have this problem again.

Are you using UEFI? Anything in the smts log?

I don't think the partitioning error is network related. I've build machines solely from a USB - you need to create stand alone media, build without adding to the domain, and add it manually later.

Me please!

With SCCM you can use WMI queries to assign drivers to the appropriate models of machines. Between WMI queries and TSGui I can rebuild every machine in school from one TS, putting on the appropriate drivers and installing the required software based on room number.

Use a script - taskkill /im cam.exe /t /f

Would a scheduled task triggered when the Event Log shows a logon work?

As a workround, create a Powerpoint Photo album with an image on each slide, then print 9 slides to the page.

No, just double checked, I'm not.

It hasn't helped, I'm afraid. To be fair, we were authenticating before I enabled IE mode. I'm fairly sure there is a site in the redirection chain I've not added to the list, but so far I've not found it.

Ohh no, I haven't. I'll give that a go, thank you.

We have a well developed Sharepoint 365 site, but have found that some features fail in Microsoft Edge, particularly the rendering of Forms that we use extensively. To get round this I have enabled IE Mode for our Sharepoint URL, and have included the ADFS sites required (login.microsoftonline.com, login.windows.net and our local adfs site) however users are still being asked to login. What have I forgotten?
