Today it has been exactly 1 year since Microsoft launched Windows 10. Microsoft released the first major update for Windows 10 in November. And on Tuesday – they will begin to roll out the Windows 10 Anniversary Update to over 350 million devices. They’ve had 3 major releases in 1 year which is pretty incredible. Microsoft have been amazed by how passionate Windows Insiders and fans have been. They’ve been so instrumental in helping us make a better Windows 10 and delivering what people

Hello all,   We’ve recently implemented SCCM (Current Branch) within our organisation. I’ve previously used SCCM 2003, but obviously some things have changed significantly!   We’re having a similar issue to this post: https://www.windows-noob.com/forums/topic/12803-windows-10-enterprise-computer-name-problems-sccm-2012-r2-sp1/   When we deploy our Windows 10 image (1511 Education), we prompt for a computer name (stored in the OSDComputerName variable), however when the OSD TS completes, th

This is more of an opinion question than a technical one. I'm wondering what folks do for patching 3rd party products like Adobe Flash & Acrobat, Firefox, and Chrome.

I've been reading your guides in here. On Service plans, and I used them on my enviroment. But how do I take charge of updates for Windows 10 enterprise?

I've been reading about setting the gpos 'defer updates' etc. But I don't want to withhold the devices from downloading online. I want to deny it. I want to take charge of that my

I have just attempted to upgrade from 1511 to 1606, after the prerequisite checks passed.   The error message I am receiving is "failed to apply update changes 0x87d20b15" however I believe the error "ALTER ASSEMBLY failed because the required method "ParseiOSVPPSyncRow" in type "Microsoft.SystemsManagementServer.SQLCLR.StateSys.VPPMessageParsing" was not found with the same signature in the updated assembly" is more specific to the issue.   Has anyone else experienced this, also can anyone

Hello, I am fairly new to Config Manager and would like some guidance from the pros. Running into an issue when creating Task Sequences for OSD. When i go to deploy the TS, the last page/tab has an alert "A network access account is required to access content from Windows PE" and there is only one option from the drop down, when there used to be two (see pic). I have a NAA setup and verified, and the deployment of a previous TS did not have this issue (10 minutes prior to creating current "probl

Microsoft released Build 14393 for both PC and Mobile to Windows Insiders in the Fast ring. This build includes a handful of new fixes to take note of: Improvements and fixes for PC We have improved the reliability of Start, Cortana, and Action Center.

I am looking for is in windows 10 In-place upgrade task sequence, a task sequence variable to be set that should check the language installed in current OS and if the language is not English, the task sequence should stop and do not continue further.   So far I am trying to understand, how does TS variable helps in identifying the OS Language in the current OS and based on the condition set It should proceed accordingly.   I have created an windows 10 in-place upgrade task sequence and added
