Hi all. For years we've relied on a group policy for Word built on this thread, but this year exams have started requiring students to create a Powerpoint with spellchecking disabled. Our current Word policy works fine with Powerpoint except for autocorrect behaviour. "Testingg" has its extra g removed for example. I was wondering if anyone else is having to deal with locking Powerpoint down for exam purposes?

We licence CC through the ETLA agreement and do Shared Device Licensing. One of our departments wants to subscribe to Adobe Stock and apparently this uses a different admin console. I've also been told a user can't use their Federated Adobe ID to access the Stock service. Is anyone here running both ETLA and VIP versions of Adobe and how are you managing access? If I have to sort out secondary email addresses for this department (and myself, presumably) to manage the VIP subscription, so be it, but it just seems messy. Thanks.

Good point - they can unsubmit any time. Even after the work has been considered finished. If the deleted doc is discovered within the Vault retention period, then great. But outside of that? We're screwed.

We've had an issue where some Google documents attached to an assignment in Classroom were showing as broken links. We determined this could only happen if the student deleted their own work and emptied their bin. We've been asked to investigate how a student can delete their work after it's been marked and judged to be 'completed' by the tutor. Particularly since an external verifier may need to look at these Classrooms at any point in the future. As far as I can tell, this is just the way Classroom is designed. When submitted by the student, the tutor becomes the owner of the doc. When a tutor marks the work it's returned back to the student, even if there's no amendments required of the student. The student once again becomes the owner of the work and can do what they like with it, including deleting it. The tutor can see the doc in their Drive Classroom folder, but this is just a link to the student-owned file. If the student purges their doc, the link is understandably removed. I'm considering recommending tutors never fully mark or return the work to guarantee a submitted assignment can't be lost. But this will likely come with its own problems. Has anyone experienced Google doc ownership problems with Classroom? Thanks.

I know I'm doing something wrong as I'm very much a novice at manipulating syntax but would someone be able to tell me why the following batch file won't work: set LISTFILE=C:\Cleaning_Scripts\test2.csv for /f %%A in (%LISTFILE%) do ( robocopy "E:\TEMP" "E:\%%A" /E /MIR ) I'm wanting to replace folder contents with the blank 'state' of an empty one (TEMP). A list of folder names is in the LISTFILE. The robocopy part works fine when run without variables but it's as if Windows is looking for an actual %%A folder instead of substituting in the proper name. I've used variables with AD account details fine, just not with folder names. I feel I've not understand the /f switch when using 'for'. Thanks in advance for any help. UPDATE: The problem lies with my csv source. The file was created by a separate powershell script and it seemingly can't be read by this batch script. If I create a text file myself with a few folder names in it everything's fine. Now I know I need to output in ASCII!

Hi all Instead of highlighting a list of music saved on a memory stick to play them, I'd like to know if it's possible to get a playlist file working. Editing a .m3u in notepad shows the filepath of each track - is there a placeholder I can use instead of the drive letter so the playlist can always find where the tracks are? Many thanks.
