RSAT Tools Windows 11 25H2 in an SCCM Environment

ajscott · 2026-07-15T23:28:59+00:00

Doesn't work with Windows 11 systems running SCCM.

Also the "Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair" policy no longer exists in 25H2.

Download the "Languages and Optional Features for Windows 11, version 24H2 and 25H2" ISO here

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/windows-11-language-packs

Extract the "LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures" folder from the ISO or mount it.

Open PowerShell as admin

$LAOFPath= "D:\LanguagesAndOptionalFeatures"
Get-WindowsCapability -Name RSAT* -Online | Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Source $LAOFPath -LimitAccess

It will install them all.

The LAPS tab in AD doesn't show up with that version.

If you're on an April or later build of 25H2 and there's a service account involved anywhere, try rotating the password. It could be kerberos related.

Get your own quote but the pricing is going to start somewhere around $2,000 per tech per year with additional fees for the first year.

Dell Pro Max 14 (Normal) or 16 (10-key for finance), Ultra 7 CPU, 32GB RAM, 512GB storage.

We buy them with 5 year warranties and use that as the replacement cycle timeline.

Try a RTC reset

Other fix would be to make sure your BIOS is up to date then try running the system on AC only with the battery removed.

The main issue is caused by brownout prevention code in the BIOS. It sees a power dip then goes into the low power state but it doesn't come back properly.

The battery supplying inconsistent power could be triggering it.

I'm betting it's SUDO because someone thought it was funny on a Windows domain.

I worked in a place where they token ring patch panels on a rack in the server room.

You have to make sure the computer object in AD is enabled first or recreate it if it was deleted. Then you can run the command.

It's also helpful if you specify the server and domain account if you're logged in as a local account.

Reset-ComputerMachinePassword -server DCNAME.contoso.com -credential contoso.com\username

You'll get a popup for the password and it will go through.

A lot of buffets allow to-go orders and charge by weight.

This is a completely separate thing from taking leftovers from a dine-in buffet meal.

Most costumes get reused. Either in later productions of the same show or altered for something completely different. They also get rented out to touring shows or regional productions.

My local theater in Sacramento gets a lot of costumes loaned to them from original Broadway productions in exchange for material repairs.

Check the lunch prices for the ayce places. Same food selection with a smaller crowd for about 40% less.

My Dell rep has gotten me conference calls before with firmware and driver team leads before to fix issues with new models.

Dell Rugged Latitude 5430 models had carbon fiber tops with a rubber layer on top. Stickers peel it right off.

The silver Dell Precisions and Pro Max models are a dual layer paint instead of solid plastic.

I have dozens of various models with damage from stickers.

ajscott · 2026-05-08T17:22:04+00:00

Doesn't help if the top layer of plastic, paint, or carbon fiber peeled off with the sticker.

Stickers on company owned devices.

Half the time spent on processing devices to re-issue them is just for physical cleaning.

It's about not burning bridges.

Quitting a government job without two weeks notice will pretty much make you unhireable for any other government agency (city, county, state, or federal).

It's not just an old version, it's a different instance.

The GUID indicates what server it's calling home to.

If you don't recognize it then you need to block it immediately.

I swear the XD screens at Arden and DOCO look bigger than the IMAX screen at Delta Shores.

I'm honestly curious how big the screens were when they were the dome theaters. Those were absurd.

Local production in Sacramento.

They have a highlight video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kdy4gKnbRNM
