  1. Just tried this on our installation. I am a member of 4 groups. Turning on the management interface add a personal account an an "enter PIN" option. There is a comment here. It might be you need to look into print scripting? We have just added our repro lady to all groups.
  2. I have only used NetSupport -We have both School and DNA installed. It works great. Inventorying is a breeze. We use it to limit access to USB devices, time PC shutdowns and push out software.
  3. Had a csv list of computers with some software installed - needed to compare it to the computers in in AD. ~Whats in the right list, but not the left. $output = Compare-Object $txtComputers $adComputers | ? { $_.SideIndicator -eq "=>" } | Select -ExpandProperty InputObject
  4. Mosty of the time I have been lucky and a simple program.exe /? on the command prompt has given me enough information. Failing that I use USSF
  5. I beleive that it will download all of the updates that you have ticked under classifications. FYI we have critical, definition, security updates as well as service packs and update rollups ticked.
  6. Office pro has an admin config file that can be loaded. setup.exe /admin I get rid of the EULA, supress modal, reboot and also the items that run on first load Sophos is a little different. \\SERVER\SophosUpdate\CIDs\S000\SAVSCFXP\setup.exe -ouser "abc123" -opwd "def456" -mng yes -s -updp "\\SERVER\SophosUpdate\CIDs\S000\SAVSCFXP" -crt D -patch http://SERVER-FQDN:80 The username and password is obfuscated, you need to use the tool provided by sophos. Information in the following KBs https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/12570 https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/13094
  7. It was ok until they renamed the older generations.
  8. we dont charge our pupils, much like Rob_D. Different departments also have budgets, but I am not sure if this is every claimed back.
  9. Its a thick vs thin image question. I have just the one image with the bare essentials. Program wise its Office, Papercut and BGInfo as this gets installed everywhere. I also run a powershell script to remove the blaotware in Win10. At install I have some other important apps that everyone needs, but they get updates regularly. Then some more groups for each department.
  10. Are you able to look to see if that cell has any validation on it?
  11. Do you have the Apps shortcut in your redirected folder? My policy has it set to enabled, but I dont have the shortcut in the folder.
  12. Have you set the "Show Apps Menu" setting to disabled?
  13. I have followed the Classic Shell thread thats here on EduGeek. I redirected the start menu, as you do in windows 7, to cahnge the content. Then used Classic Shell to alter the appearance. I used a slightly eddited version of the group policy thats available in that thread.
  14. And isnt he meant to be bald??? I had invisioned him looking like Hitman.
  15. I run a little net top box behind our TVs which are used for signage. Very basic windows install. Local user gets logged on at startup. A batch script then looks for new PowerPoint files on a share. If its newer it copies across, overwritting the old one. Removing all the PowerPoints from the share replaces the current one with a default.
  16. I just hope they dont butcher another childhood book like they did with The Vampires Assistant!
  17. Im betting that the 8 of diamonds post was just below it

    Gaming Chat

    Last games that I actually completed was batman: Arham City and Shadows of Mordor. I think its because they run the same fight system? Still playing Call of Duty most nigts though. Always seems to be my goto game. Does anyone else seem to start a game, get only 70% of the way through?
