Hi, I reckon that the /s could be case sensitive. USSF suggets that its "xTool-Creative-Space-2.1.12-2024-08-28-11-19-25.exe" /S Tested that out and its fine. I grabbed the exe from here: XCS Software Download (xtool.com)

Hi, I have sucessfully used this add in - it wasn't from a Shared Mailbox. But I presume there is a setting that you can change so that this could work for you.

Turn on storage sense and set it to a suitable period. This is what dehydrates the files - ie removes the download and makes them cloud only

I used groups within MDT when I was managing this. No matter what you do, there will always be a handful of use cases where you just need to remember that certain teachers require extra software. Its always good when you get to go: "Here's your new PC, dont worry I have installed a, b and x. So its just like your old one" I'd deploy the software mid year via NetSupport as that was easiest and update MDT whilst I went.

Putting softwares on a task sequence
DaveTheTech replied to Hassan98's topic in How do you do....it?
Add the applications to MDT. Then you can create a group bundle. You can add mandatory applications, these come 'pre-ticked' when you deploy. -
Office 2021 Publisher Freezing on a mail merge
DaveTheTech replied to Brax's topic in Office Software
Can you export the publication as a gif or pdf? I found that mail merges do not like OneDrive. Can you test from another location? -
Turn on verbose messages - youll see what stage the slow down is happening. Are you sure the expected policies are being applied? Whats the resultant set of polices show?

I have a program to post a Teams message. It was to aid in communication. But I added the caveat that it can break and isnt THE only way to send messages. Teams messages can be posted manually and school telephones can be used. I was told a staff member didnt know about the lockdown as they didnt see the notification. Surely the lockdown alarm (same sounders, but different tone, as the fire alarm) wasnt enough??!

Hi, Wouldn't the most effective thing be to only remove it if its installed? Something like this? get-appxprovisionedpackage -online | ?{$_.displayname -match "Microsoft.Office.Desktop"} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage

I haven't gone from Google to OneDrive, but On-Prem to OneDrive. Download folders are not redirected. Users shouldnt be storing files they need there. It will probably be different for you, but I used the migration as a time to remind users of this. That if its a shared PC, this will be one folder that gets cleared. Do you have the option of leaving it to the users to do? I'd be tempted to do that.

Hi, Have you blocked access to the MS Store? These might have been in place before and could have been deleted. However, those registry keys stay behind unless they are toggled the other way first.

Power BI Licensing for Viewer Only Roles
DaveTheTech replied to smarties11's topic in How do you do....it?
The following link makes me think that if you design dashboards, then you have a pro licence and store them in a collaboration space. Viewers then have a free licence and are given permission to read the above space. How content is organized in workspaces - Power BI | Microsoft Learn -

PC to Interactive whiteboards - audio stopped working
DaveTheTech replied to Reecekellyy's topic in Windows 11
I have found that if the PC is started up before the IWBs, then the PC does not realise that there is an audio device at the other end. Could this be the same issue you are having? It might not be, due to you loosing audio after the PC is booted. Are there any logs in the event viewer?
