I got a laptop with Windows 11 for an IT course so I can get certified, and doing the first time device set-up for it made me want to commit unspeakable violence

Windows 11 should not exist, no one should use it for any reason, it puts ads in the file explorer and has made it so file searches are also web searches and this cannot be turned off except through registry editing. Whoever is responsible for those decisions should be killed, full stop.

Switch to linux, it's free and it's good.

Hạn chế truy cập Control Panel bằng Group Policy

Trong bài viết này, bạn sẽ tìm thấy cách để hạn chế quyền truy cập vào Control Panel của những người dùng cụ thể. Hoặc bạn cũng có thế cấu hình để chỉ hiển thị những thành phần cụ thể trong Control Panel. Control Panel cung cấp quyền truy cập vào nhiều cài đặt hệ thống khác nhau. Trong môi trường doanh nghiệp, có thể bạn không muốn người dùng thay đổi những cài đặt này. Tin vui là bạn có thể sử dụng chính sách nhóm (Group Policy) để hạn chế quyền truy cập vào các mục trong Control Panel.

Cách vô hiệu hóa Control Panel với người dùng cụ thể

Trong ví dụ này, tôi sẽ vô hiệu hóa Control Panel cho tất cả người dùng trong OU Accounting. Bước 1. Tạo và Link một GPO mới Mở cửa sổ Group policy management. Di chuyển tới OU Accounting, nhấn phải chuột vào chọn Create a GPO in this domain, and Link it here

Đặt tên cho GPO. Ở đây tôi sẽ đặt là Disable Control Panel Bước 2. Thay đổi cài đặt GPO Giờ bạn hãy nhấn phải chuột vào GPO vừa tạo và chọn Edit. Điều hướng tới User Configuration -> Policies -> Administrative Templates -> Control Panel

Mở chính sách Prohibit access to Control Panel and PC Settings bằng cách nhấn đúp chuột vào nó.

Tích chọn Enabled rồi nhấn OK.

Bây giờ, toàn bộ những user nằm trong OU Accounting khi truy cập vào control panel sẽ nhận được thông báo sau và không thể truy cập được.

Những người thuộc OU khác ngoài OU Accounting vẫn có thể truy cập bình thường vào Control Panel

Chỉ hiển thị thành phần cụ thể trong Control Panel

Nếu bạn muốn người dùng chỉ có quyền truy cập vào các phần cụ thể trong Control Panel, hãy làm theo các bước sau. Bước 1. Tạo và link một GPO mới Mở cửa sổ Group policy management. Di chuyển tới OU Accounting, nhấn phải chuột vào chọn Create a GPO in this domain, and Link it here Đặt tên cho GPO mới, ở trây tôi đặt là Limit Control Panel Items. Bước 2. Thay đổi cài đặt GPO. Nhấn phải chuột vào GPO vừa tạo và chọn Edit. Điều hướng tới User Configuration -> Policies -> Administrative Templates -> Control Panel Nhấn đúp chuột vào Show only specified Control Panel items.

Nhấn Enabled. Sau đó nhấn vào nút Show.

Để hiển thị một mục nào đó của Control Panel, bạn cần nhập vào Canonical names của mục đó. Bạn có thể tham khảo bài viết Canonical Names of Control Panel Items để xem danh sách Canonical names Ví dụ: Nếu bạn chỉ hiển thị 2 mục keyboard và Mouse. Hãy truy cập vào link trên và tìm Canonical names của keyboard và Mouse.

Sau đó, nhập Canonical names vừa tìm được vào cài đặt của GPO.

Nhấn Ok 2 lần để hoàn thành.. Giờ đây, khi người dùng mở Control Panel, họ sẽ chỉ có quyền truy cập vào các mục mà bạn đã thêm vào GPO. Trong bài này là 2 mục Keyboard và Mouse

Tôi hy vọng bạn thích bài viết này. Nếu bạn có câu hỏi hoặc ý kiến, hãy gửi chúng tôi dưới phần bình luận. Read the full article

Condensed instructions from an article confirmed safe/correct by my dad who works in tech- the articles have troubleshooting info that may be useful so I'll link them below as well.

Installing gpedit.msc

Run cmd as admin (type "cmd" into search in start, then select "run as administrator," or win+r, type "cmd," then hit ctrl+shift+enter to run as admin.

It'll pop up a confirmation box about letting it make changes to the computer, hit yes.

Run these commands one after the other:

FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientTools-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F") FOR %F IN ("%SystemRoot%\servicing\Packages\Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy-ClientExtensions-Package~*.mum") DO (DISM /Online /NoRestart /Add-Package:"%F")

Disabling copilot:

Run gpedit (win+r then type "gpedit.msc" - since it's not supposed to be on the machine, you won't be able to search it by typing in "Group Policy Editor" like you used to be able to do.)

User configuration > Administrative templates > Windows components > Windows Copilot. (User Config NOT Computer Config)

Double-click on the folder to open the settings.

Double-click Turn off Windows Copilot in the list to pop up a new window, set it to Enabled, then hit apply and okay.

and for good measure:

Disabling web search in Start Menu:

Run gpedit.

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Search

Enable Do not allow web search and Don't search the web or display web results in Search.

If that doesn't work the other option is fucking around in the registry directly which scares me so I can't help there.

You should restart your computer to make sure these settings take effect.

i hate win 11 with a burning passion why would you get rid of gpedit.msc on the home version??? now i have to figure out how to add it back bc its the only way to actually disable copilot OR web searches in start.

Windows - Force a Remote Group Policy Refresh with GPUpdate

A few days ago we published an article explaining how to disable file copy through RDP using Group Policy for all the Windows clients within the same Active Directory forest. In this post we'll briefly explain how we can force an update of those Group Policies - as well as any other Group Policy which has been globally set up at the Domain Controller level - on any single Windows client machine using either the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC), the GPUpdate command-line tool or a single Powershell script.

Introduction

In a typical Windows Server environment the Group Policy settings can be refreshed in the following ways: Using the GPUpdate command-line tool from any Windows Client Machine: such tool can be effectively used to refresh the Group Policy of a single computer. Using the Invoke-GPUpdate Windows PowerShell cmdlet to refresh Group Policy for a given set of computers, including computers; such method is great to refresh the Group Policy on multiple clients at the same time, including those that are not within the OU structure (such as the clients located in the default computers container); it's also very versatile, since it can be launched from the client machine (local update) or from the domain controller (remote update). Using the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) to globally refresh all computers in an organizational unit (OU) from one central location. This is the way to go to refresh the Group Policy on all clients using a remote update strategy, thus mimicking the most powerful behaviour of the aforementioned Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet. In the next paragraphs we'll see how we can effectively use those three methods to achieve our desired result.

GPUpdate.exe (CMD)

The GPUpdate command-line tool is what we should use whenever we need to refresh the Group Policy on a single Windows client machine. To use it, perform the following steps: Open a command-line prompt (with administrative rights) Type the following command: GPUpdate /force That's it.

For additional info about such method, take a look at the Force a Remote Group Policy Refresh (GPUpdate) post from Microsoft docs.

Invoke-GPUpdate (Powershell)

The Invoke-GPUpdate Powershell cmdlet is the way to go when we need to issue or schedule a remote Group Policy refresh on one or multiple computers from the Domain Controller (instead than doing that from the client machine like the previous method allowed to). Here's how the cmdlet can be used to refresh the Group Policy on a single remote computer: Invoke-GPUpdate -Computer "CONTOSO\COMPUTER-02" -Target "User" The Invoke-GPUpdate Powershell cmdlet can also be used to refresh the Group Policy for all the computers in the container. However, in order to do that, we'll also need to use the Get-ADComputer cmdlet to obtain the list of computers in the Computers container: once we do that, we can supply the name of each computer that is returned to the Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet. Here's a working example that will force a refresh of all Group Policy settings for all computers in the Computers container for the Contoso.com domain: Get-ADComputer –filter * -Searchbase "ou=Accounting, dc=Contoso,dc=com" | foreach{ Invoke-GPUpdate –computer $_.name -force} Needless to say, the Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet can also be used to refresh the Group Policy from the Windows client, thus mimicking the same behaviour of the previously metnioned GPUpdate.exe command-line tool. To use it in such way, just execute the cmdlet without parameters in the following way: Invoke-GPUpdate For additional info about the Invoke-GPUpdate cmdlet, refer to the Invoke-GPUpdate guide from Microsoft docs.

Group Policy Management Console (GPMC)

Last but not least, let's see how we can take advantage of the Windows Server Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) to issue a Group Policy refresh for all the client registered within the Organizational Unit. Launch the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC). In the GPMC console tree, locate the OU for which you want to refresh Group Policy for all computers. It's worth noting that Group Policy will also be refreshed for all computers that are located in the OUs contained in the selected OU. Right-click the selected OU, and click Group Policy Update. Click Yes in the Force Group Policy update dialog box. Performing the above tasks will have the same effect of running GPUpdate.exe /force from the command line on all the Windows clients individually.

Conclusions

We hope that this tutorial will be useful enough for those System Administrators who are looking for a way to locally or remotely force the update of the Group Policy of their Windows clients.   Read the full article
