Powershell - Lock screen & Desktop background issue
I am currently starting to configure for a smaller organisation, using Intune for MDM, I've managed to successfully change my Azure AD login to be a standard user (I don't want every user having full administration rights) - that works well and I've assigned an Azure AD group to have admin privileges. So my next step is to set a corporate lock screen and desktop background image, using https://github.com/geirdybbugt/Archive-Dybbugt.no/blob/master/Win10/Win10-SetWallpaperAndLockscreenFromUri.ps1 script. But I now have an issue, either way I want to handle the script in Intune. Running script as: Run this script using the logged on credentials: No The script runs, but the user doesn't download the image files (having tested with administrative privileges in Powershell - the user doesn't have an internet connection, as the laptop is on wifi). So the lock screen and desktop background don't get set. Run this script using the logged on credentials: Yes The script runs, downloads the files successfully but then can't set the registry keys (as my standard user doesn't have permission to alter registry keys). So the lock screen and desktop background don't get set. Do Powershell scripts run in order - and sequentially? That way I could set two scripts, one to download and one to set the registry keys. Or is there any other way of achieving this? Please bear in mind I'm using Windows 10 Pro - so the usual Intune background settings don't work with. Many thanks.

Android device password not applying in Kiosk mode
Hi everyone, I'm not sure if I'm missing something here and please correct me if what I'm doing is not possible or by design. I'm setting up an Android tablet for single application use in Kiosk mode. I'm using a QR code to enrol the device and get it configured. Everything is working perfectly *except* no device password is being applied and I can specifically see the password policies failing to apply. I've configured the device password in the same policy that deploys the single use app. So... Device Configuration -> Profiles -> Platform = Android Enterprise, Profile Type = Device Restrictions (Device Owner). I've enforced to at least use a numeric pin, minimum lenght = 4, Keyguard = Not configured. My question ultimately is ..... is it possible to configure a device/screen lock password/pin on a kiosk device? My use case here is the device is for single app use, by a trusted person. The person will know the pin to unlock the device, but the device does not have any other purpose than running this one application, and the device should not be used for anything else other than running this one application. I can see all the settings I've configured applying successfully, except the device password ones. Any advise on if this is possible and if so, where I can start troubleshooting?
