  1. I've done this by packaging it as a win32 app and running a simple powershell script. $shortcut = "shortcut.url" $shortcutLocation = "C:\Users\Public\Desktop" xcopy $shortcut $shortcutLocation
  2. Lots of online services affected by this it seems. Happy Monday.
  3. Interested in more iinformation for exam.net. Does this go well with word processing?
  4. Is it setup as a shared device? Is there a config profile applied to the device using the shared multi-user profile? One of the options (Sleep time out) in these settings seems to over ride several other screen lock settings.
  5. Yep, had similar issue when i disabled TLS 1.0 and 1.1 on machines it broke Inventry. They are(?) still using obsolete TLS versions.
  6. They tried supplying us with a new unit with a CPU that was end of life. Their kit is anciant and costs a fortune to replace. We're going to be looking at Sign In app as a replacement.
  7. Great works. Feels very responsive. I can't seem to see the 'Theme' button though. Am I being blind?
  8. I had someone report something similar at the begining of the year over in our art centre. I couldn't replicate and I haven't heard anything since so assumed it just went away.
  9. Other: Fortigate
  10. The apprentice job posted a few days ago is paying almost this!
  11. We're a Google school but sometimes get sent .MSG files. In the past we've been able to open these in outlook but the new version of outlook forces users to sign into it but we don't have office 365. I've seen a few online tools available but don't trust uploading files to the net. Does anyone know of any program that can run locally to convert/open these files?
  12. I can't find a way to add .url or .lnk items to the task bar. One alternative is to create the shortcuts on the desktop.
  13. You paste your xml code into the start layout box in the settings catalog. Here is a screenshot: I've just tested UNC paths by creating a shortcut on my desktop and trying to drag it to my start bar. This doesn't seem to work so I think you need to remove these from your xml.
  14. Works for us and yours is very similar to ours. I vagueley remember there possibly being a change to the File explorer link in a recent update? Maybe see if changing your file explorer link to match this? We also deploy it via intunes Config Profile > Settings catalog > Start > Start Layout
  15. I believe a lot of places use Otter.ai. Not used it myself though.
  16. Thanks for checking. It's now resolved for us. It got passed to their devops team to fix.
  17. Thanks for checking. I suspect it's something to do with our iSAMS database as when I try to do an API call I also get an error about logs on our database being full. Still waiting for someone from iSAMS to contact me.
  18. I know it's the weekend so might not get much information but it's our Admissions testing today and we're suddenly unable to login to iSAMS. Luckily we don't need iSAMS to do the admissions but we would like to check some contact details. Is anyone else able to test their iSAMS login to see if it's working for them? I'm trying to get through to technical support as I suspect it's something their end. We usually login with our Google accounts but the Sign In with Google button has disappeared and the backup local account I have also isn't working.
  19. We have setup Outbound Firewall Authentication with Microsoft Entra ID as a SAML IdP For users signing into windows devices with their entra account this is a seamless authentication. If a device doesn't have authentication then they are presented with a microsoft login box to sign into their microsoft account. The only issue with this is shared devices as the device will remember the user that signed into the browser most recently. There is a URL you can visit to force the logout but this would require the users to do this.
  20. We purchased 25 new Macs this year and also had these keyboards/mice sugested to us. They seem very low quality but I guess you get what you pay for. I've not had any issues yet with them but one was delivered without an F1 key! Ours are only a few months old so still early days for us.
  21. What happens if you manually run the shortcut? Do you get an error. Test it as a normal user and admin user. View the properties of the shortcut to see if it has the correct arguments applied to it. If you have app locker setup you might be blocking exe's from running in the C drive. Might have to copy the files to Program Files as Program Files is usually setup to allow exe's to run in app locker.
  22. Are you running it as Admin? Also, you need a '\' at the createshortcut command: $Shortcut = $WScriptShell.CreateShortcut($strCommonStartup + "\BgInfo.lnk")
  23. We use this also. Very customisable.
  24. The website says: Beyond unifies three technology-driven brands, Wonde, Evouchers and Secure Schools.
