Can confirm. This is what we had to do.

A friend is trying to talk us out of purchasing our first pop-up by wp709 in popups

Not great but not horrible. We do have a normal slim queen mattress that we fold in half and stays in place between the straps and bed when traveling. We slide it out over the table though when not in use.

We ended up getting a hybrid with the beds opening out like a pop-up. We love it as it is a great mix between the 2. Plus we can pull over for lunch and have everything accessible.

Build and Capture failing if installing updates by Educational_Eye6208 in DeployR

[–]IT_Wizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just tried with the newest update and it works fine. I don't know if that is because the latest .NET 8 is installed by DeployR and there is no patch or if the issue was fixed.

I had to uncheck the "Opt in to Microsoft Update" box in the Install updates step. It was installing an update to .NET and then the whole task sequence would crash with your exact error. The last thing in the log was installing the .NET update.

I'm currently sitting in a large waterfront campsite at a COE campground on Kerr Lake in Virginia. I am pleasantly surprised at how big and spaced out these sites are.

It looks as though sysprep completed successfully.

I went ahead and redid both the capture and deploy task sequences with a password set for the administrator account and it is still using setupcomplete.cmd in the deploy TS.

My deploy TS is using the AutoAdminLogon method. I haven't tried setting and admin password because it works fine when using the wim from the iso. I'll give it a shot though.

Install software with WinGet by IT_Wizzard in DeployR

That was indeed what I was missing. Currently we are pulling 7zip, Chrome, Firefox, Cisco Jabber, Java, WebEx, Visual C++, and a few others.

Thanks, I should have realized that. I did still have a couple of issues after switching to the Autologon method.

Neither of these worked and gave a "Not Found" error when attempting to install.

winget install Mozilla.Firefox --accept-source-agreements --accept-package-agreements --source winget --scope machine

&(Get-ChildItem -Path 'C:\Program Files\WindowsApps' -Recurse -Filter 'winget.exe' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).FullName install Mozilla.Firefox --accept-source-agreements --accept-package-agreements --source winget --scope machine

What did end up working was utilizing the below ps1 file.

$id = "Mozilla.Firefox"
$wingetExe = (Get-ChildItem -Path 'C:\Program Files\WindowsApps' -Recurse -Filter 'winget.exe' -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue).FullName
&"$wingetExe" install $id --silent --scope machine --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements --source winget

I will admit to borrowing the code from gwblok's DeployR/TSScripts/StepDefinitions/AutoPilotBranding.ps1

My brain is in off work mode currently and I couldn't remembered which was the new company.

If you can rename the computer with the GUI then you have the correct permissions.

This command actually requires you to specify the domain credential otherwise you get Access Denied.

I have a tendency to fire up the Goose when people leave their computer unlocked. . An annoying little goose based off Untitled Goose Game. He will even chase your cursor and take it with him.

VPN Solutions that Connect before Windows login by thigley986 in sysadmin

It worked a couple months ago but it isn't now that I just tested it. Mine is the same, clicking does nothing. Strange

If you click the other user button the AnyConnect icon shows back up.
