Windows 11 assigned access - setting kiosk mode over powershell and WMI
Hi, Michael.
You'll have to forgive me, but as I can't speak German, I had to run "Zugriff verweigert" through a translator, but it seems to have translated to "Access denied", which I can accept as accurate.
In short, the second and third errors from your post described the problem - which is that $obj is null, but I needed to run the translation to understand why - which comes from your first error.
You'll need to either run this script with administration rights (preferred resolution), or - and I wouldn't recommend this - change the security on the "root\cimv2\mdm\dmmap" WMI namespace to grant non-administrators the necessary read+write permissions.
Because you haven't gotten far enough to use your XML yet, we can't comment on that. You'll know more once you resolve this initial permissions issue.
Cheers,
Lain

thank you also for the work translating from german to english.
Unfortunately I ran the Script over Powershell ISE with Administrator rights, and also logged in with a LAPS local admin user account on the test client. The test client is a windows 11 physical machine, and is enrolled as a Azure AD Device.
