Hi, are there any plans to somehow integrate immersive reader into exam writepad?

I always have to browse as guest or use an Incognito window to access ASM in my Edge, you can clear cookies etc. and it works for a bit and then breaks again so I've just got used to using it in guest.

No worries

We copied core rules from our existing AD set-up and I didn't see the sense in removing those in case it helps overrides and allow we've put in place for a publisher, ultimately it does no harm having them in there.

This is what we do (currently):

I think that's a similar guide to the one that I used. OMA-URI I am using is: ./Vendor/MSFT/AppLocker/ApplicationLaunchRestrictions/WBS_APPLOCK_001/EXE/Policy I can upload a new XML file to the same policy and it overrides the settings without having to redeploy or change the OMA-URI. PM me if you want a quick Teams meeting to discuss. He mentions in his guide that you don't need to do anything with the service and it will automatically start (see near the bottom). BUILTIN\Administrators is the one that you as Admins end up in, it's frustrating but you can't use any Azure AD or AD groups with the policies.

I'm running AppLocker via Intune and we are blocking a fair number of things, including EXEs, but also PowerShell. The only issue with the latter is that it means we can't use Intune deployed Powershell scripts (running as the user). We run Win 10 Education and I don't remember having to do anything with services to get this working.

Do you limit to just the private store? When I open the store the user has to sign in twice (normally it is SSO with no sign in shown), then I get a cannot connect, refreshing twice shows the full store.

I didn't think too much of it at the time (yesterday), but I had/have the exact same issue. We are also Intune and AutoPilot. I also have an issue whereby we restrict the MS Store app to only being the private store, this is not working. Intune have said that this is not an issue on their part, the CSP is missing from Windows 11 and therefore it won't work, they are hoping it will be added back in at some point, but they could not get anything concrete other than it was a Windows issue and not an Intune one.

It really sounds like you need an extra person so that you can concentrate on moving the project work forward and ultimately resolve the issues, or an extra person qualified to move forward the projects under your direction.

Hi Ollie, We run net2 with fobs and ID cards, although our fobs are blue and specifically say net2 (Net2 proximity keyfobs - Pack of 10 | Paxton (paxton-access.com)), so I'm not sure but if you wanted to post one I would be happy to test and send back. The net2 readers we have also have MIFARE compatibility in case we move away from the proprietary tokens.

I had a case open for a while regarding the setting to hide the C drive (a setting which has been available in GPO for well over a decade), eventually I got the outcome that the setting (via Intune) is preview and only supported in the next build of Windows 10, which was very disappointing! They were meant to be adding some text to let people know, but I’m not sure if they have done this yet.

It might be an idea to connect our finance departments as we’re all in a similar position. Let me know if interested.

We are likely in a very similar position, iSAMS for 11+ years and now moving the finance system from PASS to iFinance, lot's of fun and some intense training!

We are going through the training on this ready for (iFinance) go live in August, We are sending out invoices early July. In our case we are rolling over early as it’s a bit simpler, *but* you don’t need to, you can run and send out the Autumn term invoices before roll over. I assume that you still have a trainer contact? It might be best to contact them.

This is the error we had: https://www.papercut.com/kb/Main/KnownIssues/#i14526 But as I say it is resolved in the very latest version, and may not be the same issue you are experiencing, although there are similarities.

Hi, Have you installed the very latest release? We had a similar issue with our Canon copiers about 1-2 weeks ago, the workaround was to disable hardware page count, but shortly after we had the workaround they released a fix into the very latest build, basically the print provider keeps crashing and we were seeing big delays or jobs disappearing, albeit we are on all Canons (bar one Xerox, but that has a completely separate follow me queue and also we purchase everything from a single supplier).

We are using ‘UpSafe’, they will offer special pricing for edu which is by size of data backed up instead or per user, very cost effective.

Ahhh the joys of having a work credit card... hopefully they reply soon.

It's free to open a billing support ticket so I would just email them for it, they normally get back to you within 24 hours.

We got ours via the reseller as well, but I'm pretty sure they have VAT receipts in the Classic Portal: https://account.azure.com/Subscriptions click the subsciption, then billing history and you should be able to download it. If memory serves they also post out a VAT invoice about a week later.

Sorry for the delay, thanks for the replies - I'm just trying to work with an MS contact to hopefully get this resolved!

Thanks for the information, we’ve got Office via the OVS-ES agreement it just seems that MS make everything so difficult and you always end up getting told different things by different people (MS, reseller etc). I will keep pushing on both sides and see where we end up.

Hi, Just wondering if you managed to get Device Based Activation to work, we have OVS-ES and the pro plus licenses but keep getting an error that we don’t have the Education plus license, MS are telling me to go to the reseller and the reseller is saying they can only supply the free pro plus and sending me back to MS. Has anyone in the UK managed to get the correct license added?

Yes, we've had it done with Salamander.
