Files with square brackets in filename

As per the title, I need to copy a file that has [ ] in the filename. When trying to upload, it complains that they’re illegal characters? I guess the workaround would be to upload it without the square brackets, then include a PS command to rename it once it’s been copied down? Any other workarounds (or a fix?) Thanks Danny

Agent uninstallation restriction

Hey Folks, We were told that automox team has this road map on agent tamper protection last year, Where are we on this do we have any ETA when this will be implemented. This would be very useful and does not let end users tamper or play with the agents when they are provided with admin rights.

Worklet? Crowdstrike Uninstall to Move Asset to another Crowdstrike Console

We’ve just set up 2 extra Crowdstrike consoles to allow segregation of assets and users. However, I’m struggling to find a way to move these assets in bulk, as I need to uninstall the sensor on each asset, and then reinstall with a different Customer ID. Does anyone think this would be possible via a couple of worklets? Otherwise I’m looking at a huge manual job… Thanks!

Disable ALL reboots on Servers unless done so via restart worklet

There are a few servers that we do not want to restart at any time, unless done manually by our application teams. The policy assigned to devices has "Do not enable automatic restart after updates are installed" however, these servers do reboot overnight an hour or so after updates are installed. From talking to support Automox cannot stop all reboots. Has anyone from the community found a relaible GPO/Scripit or anything that can prevent restarts completely on servers? Process we are aiming for: 2nd Wednesday of the week at 11PM install all updates. 2nd Thursday of the week at 6AM restart via worklet if restart is required. Currently, the restart can happen anytime after updates are installed, so i’d like the policy/script to prevent that, so that the server only restarts when the worklet is ran.

Set Windows 10 Screensaver

Set your screensaver, the timeout, and whether prompted for a login upon resume. This code is easy to select any of the built-in savers located in C:\Windows\System32, but you could enhance it to attach your own screensaver, copy it to System32, and set it as the one to use.

How do I delete payloads from my worklet?

I have many worklets that I need to update the payload on but there is no way to remove previously uploaded payloads, only to upload more. I tried overwriting the previous payload by uploading another with the same name but I just get a error. The only work around I found is to delete the worklet and recreate it, which can be quite a chore. Is there a better way?

Worklet to identify disconnected workstations over a specific age

Greetings all, I’m looking for a worklet that will allow me to enter in whatever number of days I’d like and to generate a list of systems that are at or above that number of days offline. There seems to be a few existing worklets that may be able to be modified to perform that function, but I’m not the best script editor out there. I also found this, and it would also accomplish the same thing plus move them into their own group, but I can’t get it to do anything when I run it: Powershell script to move devices that have been disconnected longer than X days to a group | Community (automox.com)

Installing msi package using required software

Hello everyone. I have been trying to find some examples, and I thought what I put would work, but its not. I am trying to install an msi package that has some extra arguments. For example, If I run this from a command line it works on a computer: msiexec /i agentmanagersetup.msi /qn DEVREGCODE=XXXX TENANT=XXXX ALLUSERS=1 When using automox it has me do some of this in quotes and parentheses and this is where I am not sure what to do. I currently have this but its not working: exit (Start-Process -FilePath 'msiexec.exe' -ArgumentList ('/qn', '/i', '"agentmanagersetup.msi DEVREGCODE=XXXX TENANT=XXXX ALLUSERS=1"') -Wait -Passthru).ExitCode If I removed the DEVREGCODE and TENANT arguments and put them in their own quotes i would get an error about a token. If i put it the way I have it above, it doesnt seem like its running as i dont even see a failed in the activity report. Not sure What I am doing wrong. Also, because the install has specific to our company, I replaced that data with th

Cloudflare WARP fails to update, running.

Automox supports the updating of cloudflare warp, per this url: https://www.automox.com/patching/software/cloudflare-warp-client However, when it attempts the update, we’re having a number of issues. First, is that the update most often just fails stating Cloudflare was running. Of course it’s running, it runs all the time. :) Second, is that if an update fails, the laptops network stack is quite impacted. This is more of a WARP client issue, but it needs to be accounted for. What is the best practice way to patch the Cloudflare WARP client with Automox. Anyone with tips on how to handle patching and updating CF WARP, please share. I have been quite unimpressed by CF WARP / ZeroTrust so far, it’s borderline snake-oil.
