  1. The clients weren't all upgraded yet. Thank you all for your help!
  2. PowerShell 3.0 is installed on all computers in this collection. They have the same configuration because they were all deployed with the same task sequence. On the computers where the script ran, I can see the Script log file, but it's not present on the other computers where the script didn't run.
  3. Since SCCM 1706, you can run PowerShell scripts on collections from the console. I ran a simple script on a collection with 25 computers and when I look in "Script Status" under "Monitoring", it shows that it ran successfully on 3 computers out of the 25. I validated that the script had made changes on the 3 computers being listed and it didn't for the other 22 computers. Any idea why my script would run only on 3 computers when the collection has 25 computers in it? Also, I noticed that if I run multiple scripts on that same collection, it's always only the same 3 computers that run them.
  4. I was using gpp too before and was having problems with printers not installing sometimes. I converted everything to a powershell script and realised that the problem was still happening. So I did more research and unfortunately it seems to be something with the HP universal drivers. The solution was to still use the powershell script but send the command to install the printer 3 times in a row instead of just once. That fixed everything. When the printer is already installed, it doesn't matter if you send the command to install it again, it just skips it. It's not the cleanest solution but it works.
  5. Hi, I'm trying to enable Hyper-V during a task sequence using powershell and this command: Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V -All Can't get it to work, the task sequence just hangs on this step. has anyone done this already?
  6. Looking to optimize my Windows 10 deployment and I came accross the subject of Visual C++ Redistributables. For Windows 7, we are installing 2008SP1, 2010SP1, 2012U4, 2013 and 2015 so far in both x86 and x64 versions. Regarding Windows 10, only 2015 and above seems to be officially supported. So I was wondering if you guys were still installing the older versions on Windows 10 anyway even though they aren't supported or if you only install 2015 and above. Thanks For reference: https://gist.github.com/mmozeiko/de5d9b756bd11b77db8bf4253bed8b3e
  7. I tried that, it still opens a tab saying "Connection problem" instead of the Adobe message. I just want the extension to activate without opening the tab.
  8. Couldn't find any appropriate forum to place this in so I apologize if it's not in the right section. I'm installing the Adobe Acrobat extension for Chrome by GPO and it works fine but it always opens a tab like this one when it's a new user opening Chrome: Any idea how I could stop this tab from opening when a new user opens Chrome and the Acrobat extension autoactivates itself?
  9. Found the problem. I put all the configs in 1 file and it works. So, either my file for Chrome had a problem, or you can't have 2 file association xmls applying in different GPOs on the same computer. I'm voting for the later.
  10. I'm trying to set Chrome as the default browser by GPO using the method described here: https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/7009292?hl=en Here's my .xml file: For some reason, it just doesn't work. I find it strange because I'm using the exact same technique to set Acrobat to open PDF files by default and it works flawlessly. Here's the .xml for Acrobat: I verified that the GPO applies correctly by doing a GPResults and everything seems fine. I'm using Windows 10 Enterprise 1607 fr-CA all patched up to the latest build. Has anyone experienced the same problems or does anyone have an idea why this wouldn't work as expected? Thanks
  11. Did you read post #3? I posted a link explaining step by step how to do it. I know it works cause that's exactly what I did.
  12. How is that an issue? Isn't that the beauty of SCCM? Might as well use Ghost so you don't have to deploy the drivers?
  13. What's the issue with Office? We use it and I can't find any.
  14. Honestly I wouldn't bother with all that crap. We used that mehod for a couple of years and it worked "fine" but we ran into some problems that made us question the way we did things. And that is how we found this simpler, safer and more efficient solution which also offers more flexibility: 1 - Download the Windows ISO 2 - Mount with explorer or whatever 3 - Extract the file Install.wim. That is your image. 4 - Plug that in SCCM and in your task sequence. You're done with the image. It's 100% Microsoft. 5 - Now you can focus on customizing your image by task sequence. It's gonna take a little work to do everything you want by script, but it'll be worth it in the end, believe me. Then when the next build of Windows comes out, you just repeat steps 1 to 4, it takes 30 minutes and you're done. We couldn't be happier with this new method and I would NEVER recommend going the "capturing" route ever again. If you need some help with how to customize stuff by task sequence, I can try to help you. For example, enabling .NET 3.5 is quite simple with the right PowerShell script: Enabling .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 10 OSD using Configuration Manager - msitproblog Honestly it took me maybe 3 days to figure out how to apply all the changes I was doing manually by script and oh my gosh was it worth it. Cheers!
  15. We are experiencing a weird problem on our Windows 10 machines, would really appreciate some help. When trying to login, we occasionaly get this message, the login fails and we get taken back to the login screen. If we try again right after, it works. In the event viewer, we get this: At first we thought it might be related to the power management for the network card but we still get the error even after disabling it. We built a testbench and had 8 computers with autologins loop for a day (thats like 5000 logins) and we didn't get the problem once. But if we leave the same 8 computers at the login screen over the night, we get the error when we login in the morning on a couple of computers. Any idea?
