I'm after a bit of software for Windows 10 that can lock an applications position and size so it can't be moved? Anyone got any clues?

Done, enjoy and good luck!

Definitely agree there @dapaulio - we've just got rid of our Exchange server so it seems there is a space for one now! Fortunately for Drive Maps, the security permissions seem to have botched that one!

I LOVE YOU. I have been trying to source this all week so far with no luck. We don't have a WSUS server though, so removing on 300 machines may be difficult...

Had the upgrade deployed today, which also cleared our settings panel @rypowell - fortunately I took a backup of the Impero Server 'Data' folder (I think they should add this to their upgrade steps). Stopped the service, copied the folder, restarted - sorted. Credit where it's due, this version (5.3.25) does seem to be bringing a fair few of our clients back online. So hopefully it's positive from here on out.

Okay @Mic_Impero I've just emailed your support, but if you're recommending the upgrade to V5.3.25, please could we have it ASAP? I'm currently re-imaging our main ICT suite and without the aid of Impero, it's taking a fair bit of time. Thanks!

Oh good.

Is 5.3.25 available for all then, if this seems to fix some problems?

WORKAROUND/FIX FOR 'UNABLE TO CONTACT THE IMPERO SERVER' ERROR Uninstall the Windows Server 2008R2 KB3156417 Update. Voilà. Not ideal, but if you need Impero then that'll do it.

Any ETA on this or? // @ImperoMatt

My post above meant this too @DaveP @KibosJ

@Mic_Impero @Gez_Impero @ImperoMatt Getting increasingly bored of coming in everyday to find Impero not even working. Nothing is hitting the Impero Server, restarted the server, the services, the clients etc etc etc 'Unable to contact Impero Server' Would appreciate help ASAP. Currently don't see a reason to renew our contract when it doesn't even work? Also getting increasingly bored of being told by the Impero support number to 'leave a message'... "The lights are on, but nobody's home"

Is EMET an SCCM thing? Or can someone point me in a direction if not?

So not a lot... Haha!

So, let me be the one to ask the obvious question: In summary... What can we really do? We use SOPHOS here which, as mentioned, is hit and miss for deployment - never mind actually picking things up! File extensions are locked down in shared drives (exceptions in one folder, to allow Small Basic applications to run). But isn't this one of those situations where you can only be re-active? Not pro-active? WE don't know what hideous ransomware is going to come out next, so can't really stop it? Or can we... Am I missing something?
