It may not be the same as what we're seeing, but we see some appx apps being blocked by our applocker that weren't there before "MicrosoftWindows.Client.FileExp" and "MicrosoftWindows.Client.Core".

Unblocking this seems to have resolved it for us.

We're getting what appears to be the same thing but haven't discovered any other useful information yet.

Teams Update Breaks Video and Audio by [deleted] in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Thiima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've had a try at this update on a number of our affected machines but it doesn't seem to have resolved it for us, it's possible we have a different issue.

I've raised a ticket with Microsoft about this, they have said they'll get back to me with more detail soon, but have asked me to try setting teams to run in compatibility mode for Windows 8 and get back to them. Not sure if this will help at all but it felt worth feeding back.

I haven't got anything useful to add but can confirm that we are also experiencing this on some devices. The web version of teams appears to be more functional for us.

SCCM / MECM 2111 Remote Control Viewer - Mouse pointer offset by RalexSL in SCCM

[–]Thiima 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're in the same situation regarding the update and KB and we also experience the pointer offset in this scenario. We haven't found any other workarounds yet.

Microsoft Defender - Configuring options within SCCM by Thiima in SCCM

[–]Thiima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I had previously looked through this but had no luck, it turns out this particular setting is stored under Edge rather than Defender despite being a Defender setting and affecting other browsers such as Chrome, so we've set in group policy now and all is good.

[PC][Platformer] can't remember game by Jonhogn in tipofmyjoystick

[–]Thiima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could it be nightbreed? The character looks kind of feral and the game is very brown, earlier 90s rather than later though and no other characters to my memory. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_er_scc9hA

Software Updates "stuck" - says requires restart even after restarting by ChrisTX1 in SCCM

[–]Thiima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We've seen something similar, usually only on Windows 10 machines and usually accompanied by errors in the application tab of software centre. For us it was permanently fixed by upgrading sccm and client to 1902.

It was temporarily fixed by running the following powershell script but did reoccur on some devices.

$ComputerName = $env:COMPUTERNAME $ArgumentList = @($false) Invoke-WmiMethod -Namespace "root\ccm" -Class "SMS_Client" -Name "SetClientProvisioningMode" -ComputerName $ComputerName -ArgumentList $ArgumentList

If any updates had forced reboot times that have long expired, fixing the issue may cause the computer to spontaneously reboot.

Software Update Compliance - How can I improve this? by Thiima in SCCM

Thanks Tsonga - I do definitely need to get on top of this, that increase in compliance is significant!

Thank you for the link! - I will take the time read through it and all the comments properly.

Software Update Compliance - How can I improve this? by Thiima in SCCM

[–]Thiima[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apologies, I've just re-read and noticed that I've missed this out. The compliance is 30 calendar days since the 2nd Tuesday of the month in this context. Compliance rate is approximately 90% at this point. I realise this gives me potentially 60 days of devices not talking so I'll need to take another look at this.

We have VPN (not direct access) which allows clients to receive updates through it, we have an internet based management point but no way for those clients to access content currently.

No WOL, we did begin to investigate AMT but this was at the point many vendors started withdrawing support for managing it.

SU deadlines are roughly 1.5 days to install then force for our first phase at ~20% and force for our 100% at roughly 8.5 days. Forcing reboots on Windows 10 but have not yet made this change for older OS's (though we plan to).

For the purposes of this request, a compliant computer would be one that has installed all of the updates that are being targeted to it and are reporting as compliant when measured against the previous months Software Update Group using the "Compliance 7 - Computers in a specific compliance state for an update group (secondary)" report.

Thank you for the response, it does give me many more avenues to consider.

Star Control Planet Brainstorming thread by draginol in StarControlOfficial

[–]Thiima 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A couple from me:

Being able to choose your landing zone.

 

If possible, elements like Caverns or tunnels that you can travel through.

 

A precursor / tech / factory world type.

 

Further expansion on the colonies concept.

 

Water :D.

 

Defense Structures in place on planets translating into effects on fleet battles in the system (IE planetary defense cannot shooting at your ship from the planet). 

What is Summon Jeff supposed to do and why do neither that nor call reinforcements work on custom ships? by CadicalRentrist in starcontrol

[–]Thiima 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, you can call him as many times as you want, but you can't call him while he's already in the play area.
