How can EPM be leveraged to allow certain tasks/settings changes inside of Windows itself that are normally restricted for non-admin users (i.e. allowing certain users to change network/IP address settings, allowing all users to edit the Public Desktop, etc.)?

    With Windows 10 there were several "workarounds", but those are not working in Windows 11. For instance, In Win 10 a non-admin could change the IP address of a device by going through Settings but could not change it via Control Panel. Conversely a non-Admin could change their Time Zone through Control Panel but not through Settings or the Task Bar. We're having to use the Network Configuration Operators group for IP address changes, which makes things messy as in many cases the user gets over-provisioned. Matt, add me as a user who needs some of these permissions to allow non-Admins to perform some tasks.

    Hey Jonathan! Our team is currently working on supporting different Windows Settings that are traditionally in the 'application realm'. We're hoping to have something for you all in the near future!
