what happens when opening the html files to a browser and what is in the URL bar...

I mean using the server name/shared folder name in the url in a browser. If you navigate to the folder containing the HTML file and then open with IE what is within the URL bar?

We had this issue recently - I don't thin the fix was hard just needed some tweaking of URLs to load the content in a different way. I'll see if i can track down the ticket.... *****Edit***** How are you opening the SWF files? When open in browser does the URL start with file:// or http:// ? For us it looks like a switch from file:// to http:// on shortcuts solved the issue... I think.

As I said I'm sure I've seen this done an easier way, but yeah Azure is always a bit of fun - good luck

Something like this? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-microsoft-azure-backup I was sure I watched an ignite session where it was easier than the above with a built in setup for it though or a role that could do the job... not sure though...

@markwilfan that sucks, it has been a while since I had to deal with the things so I'm just gonna wish you good luck

I had this, I did something silly and used port 80 in the setup wizard instead of 443 and even after correcting this kept forgetting to use https:// in the address bar - not something easy like this is it?

Used to be able to jump out of guided access by doing a hard reboot (home + lock buttons) didn't really help much but got the iPad back to function for students without the need to rebuild ... been a while since i touched this stuff... this probably isn't relevant anymore **EDIT*** It appears i got the terminology incorrect - its a soft reset not a hard reboot - makes no sense to me, surely this is the same as holding the power button in on a laptop/desktop forcing it off (hence the hard part) and its to get the devices to reboot. unless this button combo isn't killing power in the same 'cold' way then i suppose it makes more sense. blarg whatever, it's Friday and I don't have to deal with iPads at work

use a script with a wait in to launch chrome? or maybe a scheduled event that looks for a network trigger to then open chrome maybe? just throwing ideas out there - never had to tweak kiosk based pc

You should be able to navigate to the desktops hard drive remotely from the admin machine and copy the file. Open file browser enter something like "\\Remote-Desktop-Name\C$\Users\Desktop" to navigate via hidden admin shares, job done.

Why don't you have access? seems like you are missing permissions - I'm running Windows 10 Education version 1709 (build 16299.15) and can move RDP to from this PC fine :/

so if you transfer the .rdp file to the Win 10 and double click it doesn't work?

Look like they are taking a script that is rather similar to what I posted, turning it into a function and then calling that function when then need inet access from powershell. What you could really do with is the function being part of your default powershell profile and connecting automatically when you launch PS - but I have never bothered with this as for me it's overkill. I connect using the script as needed. I think powershell profile might be the way to go as I said then the code could run with powershell launch and always connect or wrap the code as a function in the profile (I thin) meaning you could call with something like: Connect-ProxyInternet once powershell had launched

Not sure, this way worked for me - once I got the modules I needed and updated the help files I stuck with this way of doing it. There might be another/better way of connecting when behind a proxy. Anyone got an ideas?

Mistake on my part here, I deleted a carriage return when writing the post - this should be correct: netsh winhttp show proxy #show current proxy PS is using netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie #import proxy setting from IE #*****collect/apply proxy creds if required***** $webclient=New-Object System.Net.WebClient $creds=Get-Credential $webclient.Proxy.Credentials=$creds #***********************************************

As a separate issue it might be worth spending some time getting internet connectivity in powershell - updating of the help is a very handy thing and the easy modules etc. @Arthur should have you sorted for the module now though, good luck!

We run a smoothwall here, I use the code I posted to make sure PS has the correct proxy settings, then give it my domain creds and web sessions run correctly from PS via smoothwall following the script - my domain account is rather light on filtering though. Might be worth using the smoothwall - have you tried my code/monitoring traffic on the smoothwall

Running behind a proxy? netsh winhttp show proxy #show current proxy PS is using netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie #import proxy setting from IE #*****collect/apply proxy creds if required***** $webclient=New-Object System.Net.WebClient $creds=Get-Credential$webclient.Proxy.Credentials=$creds #***********************************************

Seems like you're getting this script nice and buttoned up!

Style the button with an SVG and be all fancy and modern

or you can just update the variable that holds the urls....... var items = Array('http://www.google.com','http://www.youtube.com','http://www.bing.com','http://www.bbc.co.uk','http://www.edugeek.net');

If its really needed we can track with cookie to enable this.

Currently it is random - I missed the part where we needed it to be sequential :/

This might work, i don't have a webserver handy to test with... This redirects a random URL from a variable with Javascript: >Click Me! <br /> function getURL() {<br /> var items = Array('www.google.com','www.youtube.com','www.bing.com','www.bbc.co.uk','www.edugeek.net');<br /> var item = items[Math.floor(Math.random()*items.length)];<br /> var win = window.open(item, '_blank');<br /> win.focus();<br /> }<br />

Slap this in a .html - much easier than setting up and learning PHP: This returns a random URL from a variable with Javascript: >Click Me! <br /> <br /> function getURL() {<br /> <br /> var items = Array('www.googel.com','www.youtube.com','www.bing.com','www.bbc.co.uk','www.edugeek.net');<br /> var item = items[Math.floor(Math.random()*items.length)];<br /> <br /> document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = item<br /> }<br /> <br /> Although this is just returning from a variable it shouldn't take much to initiate a redirect.
