    Device ID in Windows Modern

    Does anyone know how the SOTI Windows Modern generates its Unique Device ID? I have a case with a setup based build of a Windows 11 machine, imaged it and deployed it onto other machines. But when I install the MobiControl ppkg it installs the first one correctly, the second one overwrites the first one with 1 number up in MobiControl webconsole, and so on. So it doesn't see the new added machines as new machines, sees the same DeviceID for all machines. Does see the unique Factory SN and the unique MAC adress, that changes everytime I enroll a new machine. The Device ID is server generated, so going into regedit and manually set a different ID doesn't work. Also tried using SIDCHG to generate first a different SID for Windows, and the user in Windows. That didn't solve it either. So where does it get its Unique Device ID?? Allready contacted Tier 2 support, but they don't know either.

    Silent Bitlocker installation

    Hi we are just starting on the journey of locking down our Windows Modern laptops with Mobicontrol. I know how to create MSI's for silent application install but wondered if there is away of firing up Bitlocker when the laptop joins Mobicontrol without it being 'chatty'? Currently the user has to click next, decide where to store the key etc. I want this to be completely silent and as seamless as possible. Can that be done?

    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!

    Application Run Control for Windows Modern not working Solved Locked

    We are having a problem restricting any UWP application for Windows Modern using the Application Run Control rule. Our intent is to block Microsoft Edge using this profile but no matter what Windows Modern App I restrict, it does not reflect on the devices. I have confirmed that the profile is getting installed on the devices and I have tried this on multiple devices. I have also manually created an App Locker Group Policy Rule using the same information I am inputting in SOTI which does end up restricting Edge as intended. I also ensured that the version of Edge falls within the Min and Max configured in SOTI. I do have the profile set to "Enforce" and I am able to restrict .exe applications in the same profile. It appears that only UWP (or modern) apps will not restrict. I also ensured that an Authentication Policy is active in the same profile. I have pulled the information for Edge using get-appxpackage Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge command in Powershell. We are running v14.4.0.4857 but I have also tested this in an environment running v15.0.0.6019 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.

    Application Catalog - Windows Modern

    When applying a catalog rule to deploy a Modern Enterprise Application, there is a checkbox to "Provision the application for all users of a device". I cannot get this to install the app for Any users. The log and Application tab of the device show the app as "Provisioned", but it is not installed. If this box is left unchecked, it seems to install to the user who is logged in on the computer.  MobiControl Version 14.4.3.1153
