Unable to change keyboard layout for all users on Windows Server 2012 R2
Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to support national keyboard layout for Danish for all users on that machine. When I ran the powershell with script Set-WinUserLanguageList
-LanguageList da-DK it only sets the Danish keyboard layout to the specific logged in user.However the for other users its same English(US) keyboard which is not expected.
Please help me how to set the Danish keyboard for all users on the machine. Its Urgent!Thanks
Hi Mike,
Thanks for reply.
But I need to configure everything using powershell script. Is it possible to use powershell script to setting group policy/ adding logon script ?
These are pretty basic administration tasks and almost always quicker to accomplish with the GUI. Why do you want to use a PowerShell script?
EDIT: Here's some information on the topic however:

Use one profile for all user profiles in Server 2012 R2
Hi
I am setting up an Windows Server 2012 R2 Template on VMware.
I will do som changes with the local admin user, and want all user that will log in to servers made from this Template, get the user profile I have set up for the admin account.
How to I do that?
Regards
StigKSandthe way I used to do this was to create a new profile the way I wanted with any shortcuts applications etc installed. then I would create another user account on the PC and make it an admin.
reboot the pc to ensure it hasn't got the pre-configured profile loaded and login with your newly created admin account.
then right click This PC in windows explorer and select properties, then select advanced system settings, and select user profiles on the advanced tab. You can then select the profile you made all the configuration to, and click copy and then select default
profile.
this should then mean any new users who login get this default profile on this server.
hopefully that is what you were referring to.

How to disable the annoying security warning for all users in Windows Server 2008 R2
Hi,
The employees from the administration complain all the time about the different types of security warning that they get when trying to run some applications which are used frequently.
Since the number of the users is too big it is unfeasible to go through all the users and disable the User Access Control at their account settings.
Is it possible to achieve this through given account policy settings. I want to perform the changes on the server so it applies to *all* (or maybe those of Administration department) users.
One useful information here can be the following: we use 2 different severs, the application which cause the errors are in the terminal server, and the users are in the main server. Where should I perform the changes?
Best,
DHiya,
It could sound like that one indeed. There are a few options to go for, however it should be fairly easy to find out :)
Create a test GPO and apply to a limited amount of users. GPUpdate and verify that the GPO has been applied using rsop.msc
Then open the application to test and see if it has the desired effect. You might need to change more than one setting, depending on the application and desired behavior. -

How to set mozilla firefox homepage for all users in windows 7?
I want to set same homepage for all users in windows 7.
You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.
Place a local-settings.js file in the defaults\pref folder where also the channel-prefs.js file is located to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

Pin shortcuts to Taskbar and Start Menu for all users in Windows 7
How can i Pin shortcuts to Taskbar and Start Menu for All Users in Windows 7? Office 2007 Word, Excel and Outlook.
There are a few ways...
You can configure a default profile which will give you the ability to setup the Start Menu as you want it with the items pinned how you like. However, in my experience customizations done to the Taskbar are not maintained in a default profile.
So, one way to get around that would be to create a script and use the "Active Setup" hooks that are built into Windows 7 to achieve the desired results.
If you combine this script...
http://blogs.technet.com/deploymentguys/archive/2009/04/08/pin-items-to-the-start-menu-or-windows-7-taskbar-via-script.aspx
With Active Setup...
http://www.visualbasicscript.com/Active-Setup-Examples-m67461.aspx
You can get the results you want to get...
Pinned items on the Taskbar have two components, one is in the file system and the other is in the registry. You could also use GPO Preferences to add both components to a new profile and therby get similar results. I played around with this method a little and did get it to work also.

Set a default layout for all users via DIAPI
Hello everyone,
I am attempting to set a default report for all users/business partners using the DI-API.
I can accomplish this in the B1 application via Tools> Layout Designer...>Set as Default
If there are entries in the RDFL table for this layout, I am prompted to delete these entries and set this layout as the default for all users/BP's
Based on the SDK Documentation, the following code should accomplish the same thing via the DI-API
(stripped down for clarity)
Dim oDefaultReportParams As DefaultReportParams
oDefaultReportParams = oLayoutService.GetDataInterface(ReportLayoutsServiceDataInterfaces.rlsdiDefaultReportParams)
oDefaultReportParams.LayoutCode = sMyLayoutCode
oDefaultReportParams.ReportCode = sMyReportCode
Me.oLayoutService.SetDefaultReport(oDefaultReportParams)
Code executes fine, but it doesn't have the expected impact on settings. The above code adds an entry to the RDFL table rather than changing the DfltReport field in the RTYP table like I expected, so instead of setting the default report globally for all bps/users, its adding an entry to the RDFL table to set the value for a specific user/bp
I experimented by including and setting the following properties to every combination I could think of with the same results
oDefaultReportParams.UserID = 'tried 1, 0, -1
oDefaultReportParams.CardCode = 'tried "", "0", "-1"
Am I misunderstanding the API, or using the wrong objects/calls...? If all else fails I could accomplish this via the UI-API instead, but the application was intended to be a stand alone app that didn't rely on SAP B1 application running, so any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks!Hi,
Please repost at SDK forum to get quick response. Close this thread here with helpful answer.
Thanks. -
Hi All,
How can I change the layout for alll the users,
When i have chnaged it is showing only for me and not for othersHi,
Once you change the layout in the report click on save layout at the top of the report.
There you have a tab called USER SPECIFIC.
If that is checked, then the layout is specific to your user name, else it will be set as default for all users.

How can I set default toolbar layout for all users in my system?
Hi everybody! I am running a local ubuntu server at my office. I can set some defaults preferences (about:config) for all new users in the system by defining those prefs in the /etc/firefox/syspref.js.
Now, I want to define default toolbar layout in a similar way (maybe not needed but fun), to copy the toolbar layout for my user. Is there a general way to do that?
thank you in advance!You can try to create a default template folder (defaults/profile) in the Firefox and place the file(s) in that folder for newly created profile.
The only way to customize an existing profile is to copy files directly to it. -
HELP - Change cache location for ALL users.
I am in desperate mode here, so I appreciate any help...
I just installed 1.4.2_08 on my Citrix environment. I have a GPO that only allows 30mb of data to be saved in their profile and this is the max that I can make it. The problem is that the website created that uses this version of JRE creates a an 11mb file twice in the users profile. This blows up their session and they are no longer allowed to log off until I go in and clear it off. I've only had about 10 users that I have had to do this too, but I can see it's going to get a lot higher. Basically I want to change the cache location for all users, not just my profile, and redirect it to the users 'My Documents' folder. This way my GPO that then redirects the users 'My Documents' folder can have this folder on their home drive.
Please, help! Thanks a bunch!!I had the same problem, but fixed it with this solution:
I added [deployment.user.cachedir=c\:\\temp\\cache] to the deployment.properties file.
(located at C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment)
Then i deleted the cache directory.
Now i am making my one Transform file for the deployment of java 1.6.0_05.
Does anyone knows how i can change the cache files etc in my transform file.
Thanks a lot!! -

CP3525dn, networked -- default duplex for all users (embedded web server)
I want to set the default for all users on our networked CP3525dn to be duplex. I cannot find this option anywhere in the embedded web server. I have duplex turned on, of course, and users can set their own default to duplex, but I want it to be default for everyone--the default default, if you will.
Is this possible? I'm fairly certain it's possible if the printer is connected to a computer and shared on the network (but I don't remember the specifics) but I can't find out how to do it if it's on the network on its own.
Thanks!I don't believe you can. It must be set for every user manually.

Setting Finder Sidebar Folders for all users on Windows Network.
Morning All,
Have 15 iMacs and have joined them to Active Directory using Centrify.
Looking to customize the Finder Sidebar for all users that log on. We don't want to do this manually for all users. Specifically want to make sure the Home Folder is mapped and documents folder and all the other ones are not showing.
Is this possible to do at all? We have Centrify Group Policies we can apply on our Windows Network and a Mac Server we can use with Profile Manager if necessary as well.
Hope you can help,
Regards,Hi All,
Thought I'd bring this thread to the top again in the hopes someone will be able to help. -
Installing Default Printer For All Users on Windows 7 Client PCs.
The printers are shared on a Windows Server 2012 and I need a way to install them on Windows 7 clients PCs. I have tried using :
RUNDLL32 PRINTUI.DLL, PrintUIEntry but the results were unreliable.
1. Is there a way to install a network printer shared on a Windows Server 2012 while logged on to the local Windows 7 PC domain as administrator?
2. What other methods would you recommend?
Thanks in advance for any replies.Hi,
You can deploy the printer via GPP, make some configuratiosn for the printers, set this printer as default printer, then link the GPO to related OU or group which contains the user accounts that you want this printer available. after that, run
gpupdate /force to update the policy, you will see printer listed on your client.
