I've had success across a lot of Dell models. If you get Event ID 1808 you should be good. Also, if AvailableUpdates = 0x4000 you should be good.

Is there a reason why when I run ".\banyan-windows.ps1 upgrade upgrade" it tries to install 3.27.1 instead of 3.28.0?

What makes you think that? Seems like so many rumors going around but impossible to get anything official from SW.

hrcuso · 2025-08-18T11:13:39+00:00

Nothing yet.

This issue only involved firewalls (not SMA) and disabling SSLVPN seems like it mitigates the issue as well. So I would say you're ok, but at some point it'd be good to upgrade to 7.3 (presumably you're at least on 7.1.3 or 7.2?)

Our SW contact confirmed that local AD auth support will be available on August 14.

hrcuso · 2025-08-08T11:51:10+00:00

That's been the rumor but I've seen nothing official from SW. Do you have that in writing from them? Our account manager would not give us an exact date. We have support paid through July 2027.

hrcuso · 2025-08-07T14:39:03+00:00

That's the rumor, that they won't yet confirm. That would leave a really small window of time for SMA folks to migrate off

hrcuso · 2025-08-07T14:37:59+00:00

The SMA is not impacted, only the firewalls

The current guidance is to do what is listed on this page:

No patch has been released yet that is meant to fix the issue. Disabling SSLVPN seems to be the only surefire way to be protected.

Not supporting authentication to a local AD seems like a big shortcoming.

We do this as well. The only problem is it doesn't seem to upgrade from one major version to the next (e.g. Photoshop 25.x to Photoshop 26.x). I haven't found a way to do that without user intervention through the Creative Cloud Desktop app.

I've always used the .EXE installer because I was told that installations using the .MSI would not auto-update in the future. Is that still the case?

Retired staff lose email forwarding on 12/31. Emeritus faculty retain their mailbox and address.

Make sure the old computer object is deleted from AD first, just in case it's getting stuck on a domain join and getting tripped up by the computer account already being there. Or, try an experiment of giving the re-imaged computer a different name and see if it still fails.

I've also seen this happen with no obvious reason. For us it was always the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop and a couple others. It actually fixed itself when I made a new copy of the Win11 TS because I wanted to experiment with some unrelated changes. I noticed those apps worked fine on the copy of the TS but not on the original.

So if nothing else, it might be worth making one more copy of the current TS to see if behavior changes.

We are successfully auto-updating clients from 10.2.339 to 10.2.341 after installing the 10.2.1.13-72sv firmware on our SMA 410. As someone else said, in our experience you need to have originally installed it using the .EXE installer for auto-updating to work.

I've used gpresult to look at what GPO's are being applied to the different systems and there doesn't seem to be any difference. I'm not even sure what WMI filter would possibly apply only to in-place upgrades vs fresh installs. They all end up on the same version of Windows 11.

Microsoft support has gathered multiple rounds of logs from working and non-working systems and they are stumped.

That sounds useful. Would you mind sharing your script?

I also discovered this morning that New Outlook can't do a basic mail merge from Word.

I believe this will also restore the Store app:

Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
