Way back when (two years ago to the day actually), I posted a blog that described how to use Windows Autopilot self-deploying mode to create a kiosk that displayed a web page […]
There is a new update available for MDT to address an issue that arises from Windows 10 2004 and the corresponding ADK release: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4564442/windows-10-deployments-fail-with-microsoft-deployment-toolkit The issue would only be encountered if you […]
It might seem like a very long time ago, but at the Microsoft Ignite 2019 conference in Orlando, there was a theater session presented: THR4002: Solving Windows 10 feature updates in a […]
This should be a trivial exercise. I should be able to connect to a remote Hyper-V server using Hyper-V Manager, connect to a specific VM, and interact with it as if I […]
You probably saw the announcements: How to get the Windows 10 May 2020 Update What’s new for IT pros in Windows 10, version 2004 And yes, it’s available on VLSC as well, […]
First, I described a messy way to get rid of the Edge (the Chromium-based one) desktop shortcut. That led to some Twitter discussions with the Edge team, resulting in a new MSI […]
I’m sure most of you are aware that Windows Autopilot supports a user-driven Hybrid Azure AD Join scenario. That’s not what I’m talking about here. I want to talk about Hybrid Azure […]
My initial response when reading through the Windows Package Manager Preview announcement from the Build event was “ugh, another package manager” (on top of OneGet, NuGet, Chocolately, etc.). But it is immediately […]
As some of you have noticed, the naming convention allowed for Windows Autopilot Hybrid Azure AD joined devices isn’t particularly flexible: You can specify a prefix (e.g. “AD-“) and the rest of […]
A few days ago, I started working on a new script. This blog is not about that script, but rather the unrelated issues I encountered while working on that script. Let’s start […]
Back when I was still in Windows product management/marketing, around the time when Windows Autopilot was first announced in June 2017, I was working with the team to try it out. “All […]
After a productive Friday night/Saturday morning, I’ve made a number of script updates. Let’s start off with the most interesting of them. The Get-AutopilotESPStatus script has been updated to version 3.6 to […]
Sometimes I should probably pay more attention. I use PowerShell a lot. I use Windows 10 a lot. But I still missed this one: Some highlights: Want to know if the device […]
Sometimes you need to run some code – somewhere. You don’t care where. But clients need to be able to get to it. You don’t want servers, VMs, or web apps, just […]
There are a variety of blog posts that talk about creating a local account on a device, to be used as a “break glass” account in case anything ever happens where the […]
I’ve talked about the Get-AutopilotESPStatus.ps1 script a few times in previous blogs (like this one). Well, here’s another one. First, I added some additional diagnostics information at the top of the output: […]
It seems some days become worthy of a blog post, if only due to the coincidental collision of research and customer questions. Today is one of those days. I started off the […]
I did my first podcast episode back in March. Because I didn’t know any better, it was posted at a higher bitrate than necessary, so it used up a significant amount of […]
If you routinely sign into the VLSC portal at https://www.microsoft.com/vlsc to download Windows 10 media you may have noticed something interesting recently. Here’s a snapshot of Windows 10 1909 from mid-March: And […]
Sadly, I can remember setting up my first Remote Access Service (RAS) on Windows NT Server 4.0. It was a very simple process: First you added the Remote Access Service in network […]
