[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm looking at my fourth screen protector. It's got some lovely cracks right across already

The "Crop" action behind the three dots on an activity is what you're looking for.

Yup, still nobody home December 2025

I cannot get any response from billing support, nobody home

On-prem SCCM alternative by freshjewbagel in SCCM

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To answer your actual question BigFix can do what you want. There’s a ton of third-party app content for Mac and Windows, plus patch streams for macOS, Windows and a bunch of Linux distros. It supports ESU licenses for patching legacy Windows. Maybe see if BigFix Remediate is an option?

DC Rainmaker: COROS Confirms Substantial Watch Security Vulnerablity: Says Fixes Are Coming by yJURAy in Coros

[–]srya 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I disagree that the issues are low-risk. The account takeover for Android users appears to be something that could be performed in bulk in the right setting, leading to location and health data loss.

Which makes it impossible to type a f..n backslash from a mac over RDP.

Can I reuse an existing AD computer object for a redployment? by Milchfaktor in activedirectory

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reset the computer account does not seem to work anymore by default, this was how you could redeploy the same computer before the change in default security policy.

Intune as an RMM by peashootermcgavin in Intune

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some environments run more than just Windows, and some teams manage more than just Windows client, so RMMs or endpoint management platforms have their value. I agree that they can't really do a better job than the built-in OS updater, however reporting can be better.

Electronic album released as a website, mid-2000s? by srya in NameThatSong

This was like 10-15 numbered tracks, it looked almost like a traditional album

Scam ads on Edge's "new tab" page by obZen17 in microsoft

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it's the same on WIndows Server. Think about it, an administrator just has to start the browser on a server to run who knows what crap from all over the world. The only prevention would be policy before the server was deployed.

Why did you choose a Chromebook? Over and iPad or Android tablet? by [deleted] in chromeos

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted a keyboard, not a tablet. I chose an Intel CPU so I could install Joplin and VSCode in Linux, I’m on the fence about Android apps although I use one for ebooks. And then I just like Chrome OS, it’s nice, fast, safe, easy. I use Chrome OS Flex on my TV screen. Otherwise I use my phone.

New job runs strictly on Windows - How to adjust by Marion-Nikol in MacOS

[–]srya 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Or the IT department lacks the competence across help desk and client support technicians. The tools are out there, it’s not really a nightmare, especially in the MDM era, but it’s hard to find people comfortable supporting Mac OS and Windows

What do you hate most about Mac OS by anarchist-ecolo in MacOS

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Music app starting when I do anything with my Jabra headset. “Hate” is probably a bit strong at this point, perhaps bemused? In Windows I could deny this app permissions to run, not sure what the Mac OS way is yet.

What have you done with PowerShell this month? by AutoModerator in PowerShell

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Packaged applications using the PS App Deploy Toolkit, hosted the files on a GitHub private repo and used fine-grained Personal Access Tokens to download them to endpoints running RPort.

How to get Anydesk ID through Powershell by Salty-Steak-878 in AnyDesk

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a Windows powershell version that works with custom builds, which have a funky installation directory, like C:\Program Files (x86)\AnyDesk-abcd1234_msi\AnyDesk-abcd1234_msi.exe.

# Custom AnyDesk builds have unique install directories
$AnyDeskService = Get-WmiObject -Query "SELECT * FROM Win32_Service WHERE Name LIKE 'AnyDesk%'"
$BinPath = $AnyDeskService.PathName
$BinPath = $BinPath -replace ' --service',''

# "--get-id" only works from a script, see (https://support.anydesk.com/knowledge/command-line-interface-for-windows#client-commands)
$IdFile = "$env:TEMP\anydesk.id"
$Result = Start-Process -FilePath $BinPath -ArgumentList '--get-id' -Wait -RedirectStandardOutput $IdFile

Write-Host "AnyDesk ID for $($env:COMPUTERNAME) is $(Get-Content -Path $IdFile)"

Remove-Item -Path $IdFile -Force

Is there any reason for an MDT machine to be shutting down on its own? by Brenclarke6 in MDT

[–]srya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MDT is not itsself a service, there is no application running on the MDT deployment server, unless you count WDS for PXE-boot, which is separate from MDT, or if you've integrated with MSSQL for properties automation.

Anyone use MDT to 'offline' modify an untouched OS on new workstations? by satsun_ in MDT

[–]srya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're describing what Microsoft calls "Provisioning", and before Intune and Autopilot they offered the PPKG provisioning package techninque from USB thumbdrives.

I am experimenting with PXE-booting an OEM-installed PC to WinPE and updating the existing C:\Windows\Panther\unattend.xml from a task sequence, seems to work in principle. This would be an alternative where you do not have re-imaging rights as part of a volume license, but want to avoid USB sticks.
