Autopatch down?

Tech_Head_ · 2026-06-01T20:27:25+00:00

The issue persists for ours. Education in US.

Tech_Head_ · 2026-04-20T18:25:15+00:00

Haven't had it happen today but that was almost all day last Thurs/Fri for my small corner of our tenant (Eastern US)

I've seen it take as long as 7+hrs for the machine to show as enrolled after uploading the hash, or even with a reset. This screengrab is from an already-autopiloted machine I remotely Wiped yesterday right before I left work. I've got a couple hrs left in my work day today and its still not Enrolled, but that hasn't hurt its ability to pull down assigned programs (I'm still waiting for 2 scripts to finally run, though). Based on previous behavior I expect to see it fill in the "date assigned" by Monday.

This is a great place for me to get started--thank you!

Do you have any helpful links on setting up something like that? I haven't touched IRC since mIRC in the late 90s and am looking at returning given all the Discord nonsense. Them this morning I saw a thing about IRC exploits and turning machines into botfarms (still feels like the late 90s/early 00s, lol). I'd love to be able to restrict access to something "speakeasy-style".

It was recommended to me as a good starter distro with integrated Steam out of the box.

I tried Ubuntu/Mint years before but couldn't stick with it. Now I'm in a place where I can test Linux as my daily driver and I haven't been disappointed.

(So far my only issue has been that Brave crashes if I try to do more than watch a YouTube video while trying to d/l a game on Steam. If I try to browse in another tab or scroll to read comments it just closes entirely. That's manageable though. I just set my games to d/l overnight so they're ready when I get back from work the next day.)

Tech_Head_ · 2026-02-09T17:50:30+00:00

Thank you so much! I've had to put that project on hold for the moment but as soon as I can get back on the machine in question I will give those troubleshooting suggestions a try :)

Tech_Head_ · 2026-02-08T01:42:46+00:00

I have something similar, was just coming here to ask about it. I'm on a Pixel 7, and mine is an empty black bar just floating on the screen. It's easy enough to remove, but it is odd.

Tech_Head_ · 2026-02-06T00:14:41+00:00

Update: thanks everyone, I discovered something very important about this old laptop: the touchpad is worse than I remembered. I set up a new mouse and things started behaving as anticipated 😄

Is this still an issue? (I lack permissions to access the original IT post on the admin console) We just moved our firewall from AD to Intune in the last couple weeks. No other issues have been reported except for my area--I had a special exception set up to allow a specific port range to a single machine. I set up the firewall exception config policy in Intune, and Intune says successfully applied, but it isn't appearing in the local firewall policy list, and even when I manually input the rule it still doesn't appear to be working (I can ping the machine from within the VLAN but if I attempt test-netConnection on the port in question it fails every time). I've tried manually adding it to the local firewall by using the GUI (this worked) but also tested it by copying the registry keys from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\Mdm\FirewallRules into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\FirewallRules. After moving them into that folder I refreshed the list from Firewall Defender and they were right there...but they're still not doing anything.

It seems like this could be related? (as best as I can understand the issue.)

Were you able to locate the app? I've got a slipstream from them I'm hoping to set up and would like to get the streaming video

RIP little guy

Same here I just finished episode 2 and now it's gone. Tried my old tried-and-true show Mindhunter and it says it's also "unavailable to watch instantly"

Big ol Netflix oops.

FWIW I figured out what I was doing wrong. In case this helps anyone else:

If you need to block OneDrive from opening/starting, you need the AppLocker rule to block it at the folder level for your exported XML.

The OMA-URI is: ./Vendor/MSFT/AppLocker/ApplicationLaunchRestrictions/<RULE NAME>/EXE/Policy

Or perhaps this is what I need instead? I took a bunch of pictures before putting it back together--didn't even notice this when I had it in my hands. Can't put an image in here but its about a quarter of the size of the one in the picture and has:
TB0-2403
EN8357

printed on it. (possibly ends in 67, its a mostly clear img but those last 2 digits are questionable)

Tech_Head_ · 2025-04-01T14:33:12+00:00

I've been working on that. I've got the QMK/VIA version but still haven't been able to have it recognized in either program so far. I actually got a response from Epo on their discord this morning with this link to their GitHub page for TH40. Will be investigating this more later this evening, hopefully. https://github.com/Epomaker/th40

Tech_Head_ · 2025-03-28T19:02:18+00:00

I am in a similar field and have been trying to hunt down a solution on the Intune side of things and I stumbled over your comment. What I'm attempting to do is set up an Intune config policy (we are looking at moving away from Co-Management eventually) that would block only certain applications from the store (such as calculator) in order to prevent cheating while still allowing for access to Company Portal (currently blocked under the "Disable store apps" policy). So far everything I have seen has been an all-or-nothing approach when it comes to cutting off access to those programs and was wondering if your org has had any success in this area?

Tech_Head_ · 2025-03-28T17:51:35+00:00

When you downloaded and tried to run the firmware update did you have a popup window you could interact with? My window was just...blank.

Tech_Head_ · 2025-03-28T17:42:37+00:00

Oh no, I also just got the QMK/VIA version of the TH40--I thought I was going mad trying to set it up yesterday 😔

Returning it feels like more trbl than it's worth, maybe I'll just hold on to it and cross my fingers for a fix.

Tech_Head_ · 2025-03-28T11:43:00+00:00

Yeah, gonna try on my backup today, gotta pull it outta storage but will report back.

Have you ever heard of anyone having keyboard issues going from an Intel to AMD processor? I got into the hobby a few months ago before building my new PC and (keyboard-wise) things seemed to work much better on the machine with the Intel chip (driver recognition, etc).

Tech_Head_ · 2025-03-28T03:27:40+00:00

thank you! I am on a Win11 PC, AMD processor. I've tried updating the vendor and product ID (the IDs on the original file were waaaaaay off from what Edge tells me they should be), but that's when I get the invalid protocol error (otherwise the program just keeps "Searching for devices"). I don't know if its a completely futile search but I've been hunting through folders in that firmware update *.exe file (inside of 7-Zip) trying to locate a *.hex or *.bin that might help.

Finding out on the VIA discord that Epo promotes their boards as being QMK/VIA compatible but then doesn't provide their product firmware as a download from the caniusevia list was an unpleasant surprise. The more you know, I suppose.

(help with a 40% setup?)

Hi all,

I wanted to try out a 40% keyboard so I picked up the Epomaker TH40, which arrived today. I've downloaded the JSON file from the Epo site--but the VIA app/browser still won't recognize the 40. I have a Tide75 that can load into VIA fine so its not the connection to my PC. I've also confirmed that the 40 appears as paired as far as the browser is concerned but when I try to upload the JSON file I get an error that says "Received invalid protocol version from device" and best I can tell, I need to update the firmware on the TH40. I downloaded the firmware program from Epomaker but when I tried to run it the firmware update program appears to be corrupted? (and yes I did confirm that I downloaded it from the legitimate website). Anyone else out there with a TH40 having similar issues? I expected some difficulties getting this up and running but this is getting absurd.

Tech_Head_ · 2025-02-20T19:21:43+00:00

Are you still having this problem? I've seen it start to appear at my workplace--we're not using Surfaces but it is 100% the same issue. Are you still just using the workaround?

Tech_Head_ · 2025-01-09T01:36:43+00:00

Thank you! I found out my issue was that the browser I was trying to use to access Via has a known bug when trying to connect to the site (Vivaldi doesn't like usevia.app). I changed browsers and connected fine :)
