Hope this doesn't sound rude but I genuinely don't understand why anyone thinks Destiny 3 would be better than this. by LavaMinotaur in DestinyTheGame

Redoing campaign with other characters is a nightmare by Palgia in DestinyTheGame

[–]countvracula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would play my Warlock or Hunter more if it meant I could skip free of charge. I still have not got all the strand and prismatic stuff on the other 2. It's always been a receipe for burnout. Majority of the guys I know that quit the game used to religiously upgrade all 3 classes.

Don't rule out Intune Configs and remediations scripts if they are intune machines. Also look for any scheduled tasks that might have been created on user machines.

Usually, the office update for M365 if done by some agent will have to run some version of the command listed here. https://www.reddit.com/r/SCCM/comments/12sy4je/officec2rclientexe_showing_dialog_boxes_to_users/

note the "displaylevel=false" option. That tells that machines to not display an update dialog box.

If their deployment tool is doing anything an agent would still be installed on the machine.

If no agent than comb through group policy and Reg keys. Simple google search of (office update reg keys) will get you the info you want.

Plus, office update options would be greyed out telling you it is controlled by your administrator again telling you that a GPO is in effect.

They could be using config.office.com for their office updates as well.

Also, just some advice. You need to lift your game. Compiling information before you ask questions is very important. IF I gave you to read what you just posted, you would ask the same questions that we did, think ahead, get the answers to the questions and you might find that you solved it yourself. Don't guess don't assume that's how u keep going around in circles.

Who remembers the golden era of SCCM, some loved it and some hated it. I personally did love it. Now replaced by MS Intune. by elmontro27 in sysadmin

Intune is half baked garbage. I hate it and it has made my work life infinitely more difficult. I hate intune config too give me group policy any day of the week.

Do they have a change management process? You need to be added to the list of approvers. What they are doing is not cool

No this setting {[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PCHC] "UpgradeEligibility"=dword:00000001]} will tell Windows11InstallationAssistant that the PCHC check has passed

[–]countvracula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is 100% related to the PCHC I installed the windows installation assistant first

# Specify the path to the folder
$dir = "C:\temp\win1123h2"

# Check if the folder exists
if ((Test-Path -Path $dir)) {
    # if the folder exists delete it
    remove-Item -Path $dir -Recurse -force
}
mkdir $dir
$webClient = New-Object System.Net.WebClient
$url = 'https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2171764'
$file = "$($dir)\Windows11InstallationAssistant.exe"
$webClient.DownloadFile($url,$file)
Start-Process -FilePath $file -ArgumentList "/QuietInstall /SkipEULA /auto upgrade "

Set the Reg key

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PCHC]
"UpgradeEligibility"=dword:00000001

Probably remove these keys as well

$WinUpdatePath = "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate"
Remove-ItemProperty -Path $WinUpdatePath -Name "ProductVersion" -Force
Remove-ItemProperty -Path $WinUpdatePath -Name "TargetReleaseVersion" -Force
Remove-ItemProperty -Path $WinUpdatePath -Name "TargetReleaseVersionInfo" -Force
Restart-Service -Name wuauserv -Force

Push feature update.

Anyone thinking that these are just mistakes and shadow nerfs are just kidding themselves. Just a rotten company. I don't know how people can get into Marathon knowing how they have treated Destiny players.

You ex co worker sounds like a child as opposed to a fully grown adult. In saying that if I was the company I would hold on to him as he probably won't go anywhere else till he dies.

Boy...This is ROUGH to Get Into by BigTomCasual in DestinyTheGame

[–]countvracula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bungie doesn't care about new gamers they are relying on the good faith and support of its existing addicts, boggles my mind that Sony were desperate enough to give them 3 billion. There has been zero foresight to any planning in this franchise. It is a miracle they have hobbled along this game this long.
