  1. white chocolate, soft and gooey - helps to microwave them for 10 seconds!
  2. I'd suggest putting something in the description to show that ITL is being used - I also include who its targetting.
  3. Item Level Targetting, using the 'File Match' item, should work for both of your questions. Deploy this shorcut if this file is present.
  4. First I have heard of them, so had a Google... One of the first pages I got was from Precedence - an old support company a previous employer used, blast from the past. Factory reset any good? Precedence Technologies Wiki - Support-KB-Prowise / AndroidReset
  5. I usually delete all of the software distribution folder. My thnking is there's something in there that Windows uses to keep track of whats installed, attepted and what not. net stop wuauserv net stop bits rmdir /s /q C:\windows\SoftwareDistribution net start bits net start wuauserv
  6. How to set up BACS within FMS - Frequently Asked Questions (scomis.org) Does teh above help at all. It describes adding any user fields that are needed.
  7. I have migrated our students to OD, there hasnt been a problem. The older students have a 1:1 device, the younger ones use a computer suite. Folder redirection kicks in after 10-15 seconds on their initial load
  8. Windows 11 ADMX Templates Are Not Backward Compatible -- Redmondmag.com Its a little different this time around. The above article explains there will be some hoops to jump through if you want to test things out.
  9. Surely anything 'malicious' that can be done at the command prompt, could be done elsewhere? So by taking away that acess you wouldnt be accompishing anyhting?
  10. This is working fine for me, on the above post. I see the same as 6Foot2 on the linked post. Are you able to thank as a guest, or have a setting to be anonymous? FYI: Win 10 21H2, Edge Version 101.0.1210.53 (Official build) (64-bit)
  11. I really liked NetSupport DNA, there was also the school version which was used as well.
  12. When you say internmitant, what is Teams doing / not doing? Have you tried clearing out Teams cache?
  13. new firewall rules created for each user (microsoft.com) The above thread had some info. Plus a link towards a page on Stack Overflow which could be ueful firewall - speed up powershell's remove-netfirewallrule - Stack Overflow Seems that a new rule gets created for each metro app for each user that logs on.
  14. I have had my bike licence coming up for 15 years - So never had the fun of mod1 and 2. RoSPA, IAM, BikeSafe, Enhanced Rider Scheme. Well worth it - I'd suggest it to anyone that's been riding for over a year. The best thing that I got from it was the correct process for overtaking. And that EVERY overtake needs to be 100% on - as youll do more than 100 overtakes!
  15. This will call get-aduser each time. It would be better to get all of your users. Limiting the results where you can, then filter the results against the spreadsheet. Something similar to this: $adUsers = get-aduser -SearchBase "OU=Staff, OU=Users, DC=domain, DC=com" -Filter {enabled -eq $true} $csv = import-csv file.csv $adUsers.where({$_.UserPrincipalName -like $csv.UPN})
  16. Staff get told to make a copy of the master first. They are also shown how to use the version history to revert back when the inevitable happens. We dont have file servers, everything is ODSP.
  17. It might be worth looking at this thread: Disable spellcheck Word 2016 (edugeek.net)
  18. This link may, or may not, be of use. Where to get a copy of CSCCMD 1.1 (microsoft.com) Its an MS program that allows you to recover CSC files.
  19. You can always run the /reset switch on the OneDrive client. Reset OneDrive (microsoft.com)
  20. Alt+S should do the same thing? Appericiate its not the same - prehaps an AHK script in the mean time?
  21. What are you using to install Windows? is it jus the regular unattend.xml file you are after?
  22. Logon/off script for deleting the downoads gpo for clearing browsing history
  23. Our IT suites have 4 rows, with the two middle rows facing each other.Impero for monitoring what students are doing. I find it very cramped, there is only just enough room if you need to get past wilst the students are there. Data/Power in one of them is in a dado round the outside, the second has it un der the floor. Terrible design, under the floor, almost impossible to serivce if the need arrives - but thats down to poor planning. One of them is being renewed, PCs around the ouside, soft seating in the middle. This is to make it into less of a computing room and allow it o be used for things like green screen, 'robotics' etc We are also looking at splitting of the teaching pc to some screens around the edge of the room - this will help with student not being able to see the board, and possibly give the older students two screens to work with.
  24. Bit of reading and there are a subset of Windows 10 GPOs that wont apply and some that are only for 11. Group policies for Windows 11 and 10 21H2 compared – 4sysops For now, it appears that there wouldnt be too much missing.
  25. When I was testing with 7>10 I added filters to only target the new OS. The following will pick up only Windows 11 select * from Win32_OperatingSystem where Version like "10.22000" and ProductType="1"
