This is now confirmed by Trusteer. Google Chrome Version 55 Support | Trusteer (After previously announcing that version 55 was supported.) Oddly though, when we rolled back to version 54 it still didn't work, when it had previously. Anyway, it's gone now.

We think we may have narrowed this down to Rapport/Trusteer Endpoint Protection. Early indications are good but we've seen this before where something appears to fix it and then it stops working again later that day or the next.

I'm working with Matty on this and we're trying everything we can think of but can't find any pattern yet as to what's causing this issue with certain users/computers (currently we have only a couple of people affected in a couple of our schools - not the majority of users/schools). The latest test (following a full rebuild of the PC which didn't help) was to use the previous version of Chrome (54.x) and stop it updating. Same issue occurs. Is anyone else seeing freezes/"Aw Snap!" with Chrome lately? (Especially with Web Outlook.) (We can't use Firefox as it doesn't support NTLM.)

Fixed it! It's almost always something really simple isn't it!? Turns out it was something it didn't like with the proxy overrides. The same overrides I'd been using previously. A few tweaks (removing spaces mostly) and reapplying them worked! I can only assume that there was some update (server I'm guessing) since they were originally set that was no longer happy with the settings after I effectively re-set them when checking (even though the settings hadn't technically changed). Or something.

I tried that as well, also Block inheritance to isolate GPOs.

I don't think so; I don't think I ever used them. Before the introduction of the delightful GPP settings I used logon scripts to set proxy (why oh why did I convince myself to "go modern" and try to do away with scripts? I soon went back on printers, GPP printers are just too slow. ). But anyway, they were working and nothing changed GP-wise. I'm now testing computer settings/updates as I'm at a dead end with users.

Yes I did that. (Not a silly question I had no idea about that until someone told me - if anything it's actually a silly setting, what was wrong with normal hierarchy rules?)

It's users because the staff and students get a different port. Running the script as the user doesn't populate the IE proxy, even though it puts in the registry entries. Tried that too. Like I said, the registry entries are correct. The only way to currently get the proxy settings in is to manually enter them. When you do that the Internet Settings registry is exactly the same before and after (I did an export/compare). It makes no sense! Changes to other parts of the Internet Settings (e.g. homepage) work fine, it's just the proxy settings.

First of all, apologies if this is considered the wrong section, but ultimately the issue is seen at the workstation end so that's my reasoning. Clients - Windows 7 (IE 11) Server - Windows 2012 R2 Trying to set proxy settings for IE/system. I currently have a Group Policy with proxy settings in Group Policy Preferences Internet Settings. I have tried it using GPP Registry and even using a logon script. In every case the correct settings are in the registry for the user but the IE Proxy settings are blank. GP Results/Modelling also showing the correct settings should be getting applied. I have tried everything I can think of, does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? Two other people have looked at the settings and everything looks right to them too. Thank you for any help, it's driving me insane. (This was working but then after going through the settings (just to check) they stopped working. The only "change" I can think of is that this is the first time these settings were opened on a new 2012 server if that is relevant at all?)

We currently use a system written by our "Head of eLearning" which is coming to an end (I don't know why). I've been trying out all the main ones: mrbs, crbs, erbs. mrbs: hear a lot of positive things about it, but need documentation! I have it working (although can't get AD intergration to work yet, which I would like) but can't figure out how to set it up . I'm aware there are many threads and threads within threads for mrbs on here, but has anyone compiled any kind of central reserve of documentation? erbs: I quite like the simplicity but how does the "Use LDAP Authentication" work? It doesn't have any details - server name, account details, AD structure, etc. crbs: nice system, although it's a shame it doesn't have AD integration. I'm also getting various errors - error if you go past last week, error if you click the "Make Recurring Booking" button. Is v2 imminent? Should I hold off for this? Or is there still support for v1? Edit: I tried bookit and potentially looks good, but the popup's (logging in etc.) are too annoying. Edit2: Why oh why can't Liberum make a booking system!

It's possible that it's all going to be axed now anyway in our shiny new Con-Dem nation. Teesside Building Schools for the Future schemes in doubt

Now that is very interesting. It doesn't seem to show everything, but it is interesting all the same.

Thanks for that, although that's a bit overkill as we already have NetSupport (an old version admittedly, but those teachers who would use those features are more than happy with NetSupport). The Internet block might be handy (we have our own program we wrote to do this which I wouldn't mind replacing as I no longer have the source code). I will have a look though for sure. EDIT: I had a look, there are no prices (not usually a good sign).

I have used DeVeDe, which is free.

Is this a one off task? Can't you use something like this (vbs): Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("q:\common\q:\common\STUDENT RECORDS\A-D\") Set colSubfolders = objFolder.Subfolders For Each objSubfolder in colSubfolders ' Do the thing Next
