My apologies - I misread OP as a script! Could you screenshot the GPO? Just so I can get a bit more of a perspective of what's written

Can you confirm what exactly it is you're trying to do? From my understanding: Redirect folders to a server path instead of a local one? If that's the case, you could just use GPO's rather than scripts? That's what they're designed for, after all!

1UP for permissions

Aside from the stereotypical 'gaming', I play guitar, golf and go to the gym! I also have a part-time job as a technician at a local Sound/Lighting Hire company working in local venues. This helps a lot when it comes to doing school shows at my full time IT job!

+1 Impero - 7 consoles, 205 workstations. Slowly upping it over time. Very costly, but very good.

Could you take one of the affected machines out of the OU with the GPO's and then try again? That way you're clearing the GPO's from it. Then, if it still does it, maybe it's a USER GPO?

Yes it does. AirServer does have some prerequisites however. Let us know how you get on and if you have any more questions! Remember to 'Thank' if you found any of my comments helpful!

Don't you have an 'end-user' iOS device to test with? I presume iOS 9 is on your own device - wouldn't be rolling out a beta version...! We find Reflector works well, provided network connection is strong. We do also have a couple of Apple TV's as well for AirPlay mirroring (and other things) and once again, so long as the connection is strong you're fine. They're both essentially the same product, just from what I've read Reflector does a little bit more. But if you're not going to use those features, don't opt for it!

Can't beat the boosh!

I am, @Oaktech, I know that may come as a surprise...

In case you're not aware, they don't actually take off like this when they're actually used commercially. Think about the weight that will be added for a commercial flight: People, cargo, fuel etc. - this makes the gradient for take off much more sloped. Plus, camera angles helped a lot in this video. It's just a flight for an airshow, to make it look fancy... ...and yes, I'm fun at parties...

^ This is disappointing

'It goes smoothly' - really? REALLY? In what world

There are a couple in our network that do, but we tend to avoid doing it now. Not even for more senior members of staff. Incidents where software has been installed in the past without the correct licenses has caused all sorts of problems. Not to mention seeing 'uTorrent' on the desktop... I'd stay well clear of it and make sure everything goes through you. At least that way, you can't be held responsible for something like that happening.

Ulverston? Which school in particular - I'm Cumbria myself (might even recognise my name). I know UVHS support a fair few of the primary schools in Ulverston.

We've got Reflector - don't actually use half of the features on it, just what we opted for!

Same here. HA! Never laughed quite as much, more than I would at the comedian...

My GPO for this is as shown below: http://i.gyazo.com/a2d732453a0c11211a6ff0404e8c18b5.png

Yes - so you're wanting to deploy a locked colour scheme that uses your house theme? If so, you're wanting to look at something like this and also set the 'Windows Components/Desktop Window Manager/Window Frame Coloring' options using the ARGB colour options. You can also deploy custom msstyles/aero theme files, but if I'm honest, I've never got these to work! Remember to 'thank' if this was helpful!

So, who uses Windows 8 in a school fully already and what are the most common problems you find/faced?

What do you mean by custom theme in particular? Customising the colours/backgrounds?

Yeah, we've had this - tried most fixes, all unsuccessful. In the past, creating a new profile fixed it. If not, I've had to delete and re-create the user account (then point them to their old home folder)

Open now: Chrome, Outlook, Remote Desktop Connection Manager, Stickies, Impero, Control Panel, SIMS, Custom 'Dashboard' application.

Can this/loop-protection be configured from the switch webpage? Or only via a console link

So we've just had a problem, where a student had plugged one end of a LAN cable into patch panel on the wall, and the other into another panel. As you're probably aware, it causes a loop and crashes the switch. This then fed back through the fibre and crashed other switches. My question is, how do YOU stop this from happening? Can you configure standard HP switches to essential block a loop like this? Any ideas would be great!
