Check the required .net framework is installed, i had this exact issue, it turned out when i tested the manual install it worked because .net was installed on the test PC i was using but failed on other devices, when i checked the .net framework had not installed.

Because they can browse any of the folders and open any of the scripts they contain, the crux of it is i would rather the students not have the ability to search in the first place, that way the ability to do wrong is not removed.

the shares are secure, its the likes of netlogon and sysvol that worry me

So i have discovered that disabling cortana greys out the start menu for first use, clicking off and back on the menu resolves it. I have not found a fix for this so it looks like i either allow cortana and thus giving users the ability to UNC about the place or disable it and have the users live with the click. Anyone had this issue and found a fix for it?

You sir are a genius! first login now 40 seconds followed be 4 seconds for logins after that, now i just need to work out how to stop all the home folders displaying as documents.

Cheers bud, i will do that and give it a shot.

Yes i still use file screens to block these.

I was blocking the desktop.ini files on the server but as the profiles are now local it no longer applies.

So after quite some time i am eventually getting somewhere with W10, i am running 1803 i have tied it down nicely and got my start menu looking how i want it to now. There are however two problems i am now facing, and i dont seem to be able to resolve them no matter what i do: 1. First login takes almost 3 minutes, after that its down to 12 seconds 2. When i first click the start menu its greyed out and nothing is available, click off the menu and back on and its fine Anyone else having these issues or a workaround\fix for them?

I added the the credentials option and it did indeed work, strange how this worked in W7 though with the same scripts and account, the only change being the OS Thanks very much for your help with this problem.

its just referenced in the first file: Invoke-Command -ComputerName "WSH-SCCM-01" -FilePath "A:\Tools\PowershellScripts\Create-SCCMEntry.ps1" -ArgumentList $ComputerName,$MACAddress

i can run the called script manually fine, it seems to be how the script is called that is causing the issue, something must have change with W10 to cause this issue?

I have a problem running a powershell script since i moved to w10 as my workstation this is the script content: ###################################### # Script to prestage a computer in SCCM # Creates SCCM entry, puts it in the OSD collection # and then creates an AD account and puts # it in the Test OU. ###################################### param ( [parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName,Mandatory)] [Alias('Computer Name','Computer','Device','Device Name','Name')] [string]$ComputerName, [parameter(ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName,Mandatory)] [validateScript({ if ($_ -match '^([0-9A-F]{2}[:-]){5}([0-9A-F]{2})$') { $True } else { Throw "$_ is not a valid MAC Address." } })] [Alias('MAC')] [string]$MACAddress ) Process { $ComputerName = $ComputerName.ToUpper() $MACAddress = $MACAddress.ToUpper() $ValidateComputerName = $ComputerName.Split("-") if ($ValidateComputerName.Count -eq 3) { if ($ValidateComputerName[0] -notmatch "WSH" -or $ValidateComputerName[2] -notmatch "^[TD\d]+$") { Write-Host "This isn't a valid computer name" Exit } } else { Write-Host "This isn't a valid computer name" Exit } Invoke-Command -ComputerName "WSH-SCCM-01" -FilePath "A:\Tools\PowershellScripts\Create-SCCMEntry.ps1" -ArgumentList $ComputerName,$MACAddress New-ADComputer -Name $ComputerName -SamAccountName $ComputerName -Enabled:$True } the script ic calls is this: param ( [string]$ComputerName = $(Read-Host "Enter a computer name"), [string]$MACAddress = $(Read-Host "Enter a MAC Address") ) Import-Module 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\bin\ConfigurationManager.psd1' Set-Location WSH: Import-CMComputerInformation -CollectionName "Windows 7 Clients" -ComputerName $ComputerName -MacAddress $MACAddress #Get-CMDevice -Name $ComputerName | Foreach {Add-CMDeviceCollectionDirectMembershipRule -Collection "Windows 7 Clients" -ResourceId $_.ResourceID} start-sleep -seconds 5 #Invoke-CMDeviceCollectionUpdate -Name "Deployment Test" Invoke-CMDeviceCollectionUpdate -Name "Windows 7 Clients" and this is the error i get when i run the script: Cannot find drive.

Hi pal, Basically it was a problem with O365, I logged a call with Microsoft through the portal and they resolved the issue working with me over 2 days.

I didnt, but i just validated it there using an online validator and it didnt flag anything up, good trick to know though cheers.

Cheers bud, I tried applying this and it killed my start menu altogether will keep playing with it as the article does seem to provide the answer

so this is what my .xml file looks like at the minute:

So after playing around with the start menu layout I have now gotten my head around how to apply it consistently but I have an annoying issue with group positions. When I export the start menu it looks like this: and when I apply the .xml file to as user it looks like this: and I have no clue why its moving or how to stop it!, has anyone come across this and been able to resolve the issue? I am using build 1709.

So the script needed to activate which I used is:#Connect to the Azure Rights Management service. $cred = Get-Credential Get-Command -Module aadrm Connect-AadrmService -Credential $cred #Activate the service. Enable-Aadrm #Get the configuration information needed for message encryption. $rmsConfig = Get-AadrmConfiguration $licenseUri = $rmsConfig.LicensingIntranetDistributionPointUrl #Disconnect from the service. Disconnect-AadrmService #Create a remote PowerShell session and connect to Exchange Online. $session = New-PSSession -ConfigurationName Microsoft.Exchange -ConnectionUri https://outlook.office365.com/powershell-liveid/ -Credential $cred -Authentication Basic -AllowRedirection Import-PSSession $session #Collect IRM configuration for Office 365. $irmConfig = Get-IRMConfiguration $list = $irmConfig.LicensingLocation if (!$list) { $list = @() } if (!$list.Contains($licenseUri)) { $list += $licenseUri } #Enable message encryption for Office 365. Set-IRMConfiguration -LicensingLocation $list Set-IRMConfiguration -AzureRMSLicensingEnabled $true -InternalLicensingEnabled $true Set-IRMConfiguration -SimplifiedClientAccessEnabled $true Set-IRMConfiguration -ClientAccessServerEnabled $true which runs without producing anything of note, but when running the test: Test-IRMConfiguration -Sender [email protected] it returns the following error:Results : Acquiring RMS Templates ... - FAIL: Failed to acquire RMS templates. This failure may cause features such as Transport Protection Rules, IRM in OWA, and IRM in EAS to not work OVERALL RESULT: FAIL

I am looking to create a rule so if users include the word SecureMail in the subject or body the message will be encrypted automatically. I have activated rights management but when I create the rule I get as far as selecting the RMS template but none are available from the drop down.

Anyone using encryption via mail flow rules in O365? I am hitting a bit of a wall with this one.

All sounds very positive, thanks for the feedback.

Thats good to know thanks for the info pal.

Just wondering if anyone is using Schools Broadband for SIP trunks and IP Telephony? thinking of using them as a replacement for our Council managed Avaya phone system.

I have had it with Impero, without fail every single time they release an update they break something else! I am such a mug, when I log an issue they say "oh we have a new version that fixes that" I then proceed to tell them what I think of the updates they release, they assure me it is stable, I get the update and guess what? it breaks something else. Its like they use us to test the updates they release, well no more I will be looking to replace this pain in the ass.
