    I know this vid is a bit old, but thanks, it provides very valuable insight as to the inner workings of Intune and Win registry. Thanks again, you guys rock!!

    Thank you guys so much! Tested successfully on Windows 10.

      We are finding now that this method has been intermittently working. Some devices work, and some don't that are assigned the same config profile for location services with the remediation script. Wondering if maybe a Windows update broke it? Devices are all Windows 10.

    Great video on time zone , our organization has been struggling with timezone for some time , i would also like to share some techniques which we are following which allows us not to enable location services but set time zone
    1. When a autopilot is built it asks us to selection region , respective reg key (HKEYCU/controlpanel/International/Geo)
    2. Based on the above value , we created a powershell script to set timezone accordingly
    Since powershell runs only once it allows end users to set time zone from GUI as well as we dont have to enable location services which has been blocked due to security reason
    Personally i feel , why dont Microsoft set the timezone as per the region selected during initial setup of laptop

      k.p Sandeep - Would you mind sharing this script being used to set the time zone? We have been struggling with this situation and your approach seems feasible.

    Do you guys have any videos on how to change local group policies using in-tune for cloud only environments? for example passwords, log retention period etc thanks guys! As always delivering great content!

    Thanks for doing this. I did the same thing on Win10 (and not as nice as your PR script) but found that location was very unreliable. Had a number of users whos locations would jump to different time zones despite the fact that they hadn't moved. I ended up rolling all this back because it was too inconsistent despite the policies being set correctly.

    some restrictions
    Licensing
    Proactive remediations requires the licensing for Endpoint analytics and also requires users of the devices to have one of the following licenses:
    Windows 10/11 Enterprise E3 or E5 (included in Microsoft 365 F3, E3, or E5)
    Windows 10/11 Education A3 or A5 (included in Microsoft 365 A3 or A5)
    Windows 10/11 Virtual Desktop Access (VDA) per user

    Hey what is the probability a device being connected to a VPN at the time of the config profile and remediation script syncing affecting the accuracy of the location services and time zone?

      As mentioned in the video - we didn’t test with Windows 10. Please give it a go and let us know what you find out. We HOPE it does.

      @@IntuneTraining Hi guys! Can confirm it works! Tested on a VM and laptop. If the location can't be determined there is a notification so the user can set their default location. If you change the location, in a few minutes or a reboot the time is adjusted to the location! :) Good work guys!

    I see that you set the service Manual. Is there any reason you wouldn't want to set it to Auto?

    • @IntuneTraining
      @IntuneTraining  Рік тому +1

      At one time we knew the reason why we set to manual instead of auto but honestly can’t recall. I want to say that it was just so that we could allow the service to update and it can’t do that when the service is disabled. But auto was forcing it on and that wasn’t good either.

      Ensure user doesn't have local admin is the starting point, then leverage application whitelisting, be it via applocker or windows defender application control, this means that even if the binaries are installed they can't execute them on the computer

    ugh ... timezones ... why can't the entire world use one and the same timezone? Would solve so much headaches
