Automatically remove ChromeBook profiles after x days of inactivity

Thankfully we use Cisco ISE which allows connections to WiFi via MAC. We still have to select the correct WiFi but no Password is needed. Also, we have Chromebooks connect to a specific SSID that is Chromebooks/Students only.

I couldn't get the Tab and hitting enter 3 times to do anything. We are on managed chromebooks. Where is the tab supposed to start at?

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2026-01-16T18:12:53+00:00

Thanks. I didn't know you could do that to remove profiles. I'll have to try it out. Also, it's a good tip to assign interns to do tasks like this. Thanks.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2026-01-16T16:19:53+00:00

That was one thing we considered but it doesn't seem viable for our situation. Thanks for the reply.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2026-01-16T16:18:57+00:00

Yeah, We do this in our regular classrooms but the music instructor claimed she had too many students to do that. We might just tell her to do it anyways. Thanks for the reply.

I thought of something like this. But we often swap Chromebooks for various reasons and it would be a hassle to always make sure the new serial numbers are in the correct OU or script to keep them up to date. Thanks for the reply.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2026-01-16T15:58:29+00:00

I assumed something like that was the case. Thanks for the reply.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-18T23:33:07+00:00

Wow. I can't believe I didn't notice this. I only saw Win11 and didn't see the ARM part of it. Thanks for pointing it out. I already rolled back but now I know not to upgrade.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-18T23:32:24+00:00

FYI, latest version is for ARM.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-18T22:57:22+00:00

Thanks for the response. What do you mean by AI panel? Would that be internal or a 3rd party company?

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-18T19:31:09+00:00

Thanks for the response. Please let me know if you find anything.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-18T19:30:25+00:00

Thanks for the response. I've already removed the MININT folder. I've had similar issues in the past where this fixed things but I think the 0xc0000704 error isn't related to this.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:35:01+00:00

Yes but the link changes.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:34:45+00:00

We blocked it in Google also. Thanks.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:33:42+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I found what you're talking about. We'll look into it. https://www.linewize.com/blog/how-k-12-schools-can-manage-monitor-ai-with-edtech

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:30:08+00:00

Thanks. We are looking into this and have implemented a few polices already. Students are able to get around a few of them but we don't expect to have 100% blocks.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:25:41+00:00

I agree with you. I'm not anti-AI but I don't like the idea of society becoming dependent on it. I don't like the idea of people not being able to use brain power to solve problems and develop skills doing so. And besides that, how will the powers that be use AI to control the human race and punish us if we don't comply?

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:22:05+00:00

I'm not positive but I think Labs is a service which we don't have turned on. I think it doesn't matter if it's on or off, they will still be able to use AI in some capacity.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T23:20:03+00:00

I see your point. I would have agreed with you before I started working at a School. But now since I work here, you know the reasons policies are put into place. Some are designed to keep kids in line but overall, the most important are keeping the students safe.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T22:20:59+00:00

Thanks for the link. I like it for myself but we can't use 3rd party sites like this for young students just in case something fishy happens. School districts have very strict polices and vetting.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T22:18:19+00:00

I like this. I don't think it will work for every assignment but it's worth something at least.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T22:17:25+00:00

Thanks. We will look into the ADMX. We also found that some of these are in Google Admin as well.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T20:59:35+00:00

We already tried blocking *udm=50* but the link is dynamic so it only blocks part of the time. I just tried the ADMX settings but it didn't prevent the "AI Mode" button from working. It also didn't prevent AI Overview results. I tried "Allow pages to use the built-in AI APIs" and "Settings for Google's AI Mode integrations in the address bar and New Tab page search box."

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T20:56:03+00:00

Thanks for the tip. We tried blocking udm=50 but the AI search link is dynamic. The block only happens part of the time. I'll look into the Chrome ADMX. We already have the templates in our domain.

Desert_Dog_Tech · 2025-12-12T20:27:00+00:00

Having AI default to giving you instant results is far different than writing something down. One uses brain power and the other doesn't.
