    Windows lockdown - change default browser

    Hey everyone, i am currently wondering how i am supposed to change the default browser for the classic lockdown mode for Windows Classic or Windows Modern devices to open URLs. The info box for the lockdown says that the lockdown mode is using the default browser. I have set Google Chrome to the default browser on my device. But when i open the bookmark it opens the bookmark with the lockdown browser and not Google Chrome. And then i get the error message that my browser is not supported and that i have to use other other browsers like chrome,firefox, edge, opera... I found here that you can give an intent to a url. But i saw that it worked (i guess) with android only:https://discussions.soti.net/thread/how-to-change-default-browser/ MC v15.3.3Agent version 15.3.3.45Windows Classic / Windows ModernWindows 10 Pro - latest updates Thanks!

    Windows Classic - Disable Lock Down

    Hi, maybe a simple question. But is there an option to leave or deactivate the lock down modeon a windows machine? MC version: 15.1.2.1035Windows agent version: 15.1.2.32 For example: My windows device (10, classic) doesn't connect to my MC server. When that happens i justdisconnected the connection within the windows agent and reconnected it again. That worksfor me. Sometimes the agent is not listed in the system tray but a restart helps sometimes. But when i am in a lock down mode i have no access to the system tray to start the agent fordisconnecting and connecting. So is there a way to disable the lock down like on android devices? A little information about my lock down profile: File explorer is allowed driver C:\ is completely blocked/disabled (used a script to set registry entry) Template is almost like the default windows classic template Thank you!

    Migrate Windows Classic to Windows Modern

    I'm having trouble enrolling device into Windows Modern via bulk certificate enrollment. I have successfully created my client and root certificates and applied them to the Windows provisioning package with Windows Configuration Designer. From here I was able to successfully join a freshly imaged device to the Windows Modern environment. The issue I'm facing is enrolling a device that I already have enrolled in Windows Classic. When I install the provisioning package the device is created in my target folder for Windows Modern displaying as Offline and the original Windows Classic device remains and stays online as if nothing changed. So now I have 2 of the same devices showing, where I would think the Windows Modern Provisioning would overwrite the Windows Classic and retain the same device name.

    Lockdown Windows Desktop Classic

    Hello, i would like to run command prompt with special arguments cause i need the user to run a batch-file. Direct linking the batch file in the kiosk just offers the user to save or start the batch, but i want it to execute directly. Packaging the batch as executable isnt working either. In the Help Section there is info on giving parameter to an executable:    So my resolution was to run batch via this linked in the lockdown: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe,/c "c:\batch.bat" But it just opens command prompt. Does anyone has a bit of experience with the windows lockdown?
