BOOT

That's one method I suppose... I'm using Group Policy to set file permissions on the shortcuts in: C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group1\ C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group2\ C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\WinX\Group3\ Since scrapping roaming profiles, a lot of things are working well now.

Beautiful

Use Group Policy to set deny read permissions for a group of users on the corresponding sub-key in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModel\PackageRepository\Packages\ "Connect" app for example: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\AppModel\PackageRepository\Packages\Microsoft.PPIProjection_10.0.16299.15_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy

Maybe it's just my own experience; as most of the requests I've seen and the requests I make myself, do explicitly request data stored in backups.

...Unless you have backups.

I've never been able to get it working. Always seems to render the PC unbootable.

I've found that the DesktopApplicationID value isn't always the same, that's why it's so inconsistent.

£30-£40 a month seems very high. On my own with a meter, I'm only paying £8 a month.

Using [Group Policy Management] find the [RM TLS 1.2] Group Policy.Using the [Delegation]->[Advanced] button.Add the Computer you want to disable and set [Read] to [Deny].You'll still need to fix using the registry, but it won't apply the policy in future.

Random, inconsistent and unfinished are how I would describe mine.

I've not found a way to set the height ...yet.

Looks like the "This PC" tile is a pinned shortcut. I've not had much luck getting those to work outside creating a shortcut in "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu" and linking that in the .xml. The "Printers and Scanners" tile only worked once I filled in the empty "DisplayName=" attribute.

Turns out 1709 and later versions no longer generate that file. :/ Can you post the content of the exported xml layout you are using?

Compare the content of the [%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\LayoutModification.xml] file on both PCs.

Not impressed. Not much of an improvement... and the Start Menu still doesn't work.

... on the 7th at 7.

... welcome to my nightmare.

Suffering also. A dozen test users, all the same config... Totally different menu every time. There's just no consistency.

Looks like it's back.

Yes. Using it fine with a few tweaks to remove online server access.

Tried running tdlrecover.exe?

Buy food in tins. Metal tends to sink in the ocean.

If you've registered the VM successfully, vboxmanage startvm XP should work.

Try adding: VBoxManage.exe setproperty machinefolder "C:\ProgramData\VirtualBox VMs" at the top of your script.

This should reset global settings: "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe" setextradata global GUI/Customizations "" "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe" setextradata global GUI/RestrictedGlobalSettingsPages "" "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe" setextradata global GUI/RestrictedMachineSettingsPages "" "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe" setextradata global GUI/MenuBar/Enabled "" "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\vboxmanage.exe" setextradata global GUI/StatusBar/Enabled ""
