Here are some of the pain points I cover today:

  • Turn the firewall off Set Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Network > Network Connections > Windows Firewall > Domain Profile > Windows Firewall: Protect all network connections to Disabled. Do the same for the Standard Profile by changing Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Network > Network Connections > Windows Firewall > Standard Profile > Windows Firewall: Protect all network connections to Disabled.

  • Disable Windows Defender Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Defender and choose Turn Off Windows Defender.

  • Disable power sleep settings To stop computers from snoozing on the job, head to Computer Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > System > Power Management > Sleep Settings and set Allow standby states (S1-S3) when sleeping (plugged in) to Disabled

  • Create a second disk on the Windows management VM and install BitLocker to Go
