Wyse ThinOS 7.1 Xenapp USB not mapping

By -
Hi there

Wyse have recently released the 7.1 version of their ThinOS firmware.  When testing this in our environment it broke USB mapping from our Wyse terminals for Citrix XenApp 6.0.

Normally USB drives are mapped under the Z drive. 

We found that since 7.1 Wyse are now classing the USB drive as a removable drive, Makes sense right?

Previously they classed this as a Floppy Drive, our Citrix Policies allowed Floppy drives for a select few users and we disabled removable drives.  As soon as we allow removable drives all starting working fine.

Thanks
Sam

Introduction Starting with Windows 10, version 1703, Windows 10 Pro supports the Subscription Activation feature, enabling users to “step-up” from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise automatically if they are subscribed to Windows 10 Enterprise E3 or E5. The Subscription Activation feature eliminates the need to manually deploy Windows 10 Enterprise or Education images on each target device, then later standing up on-prem key management services such as KMS or MAK based activation, entering GVLKs, and subsequently rebooting client devices. It’s important to note that the Windows 10 Enterprise subscription activation is designed to “step-up” a device from Windows 10 Pro to Windows 10 Enterprise. Therefore, your device is required to have a Windows 10 Pro license activated as a baseline. For Windows 10 Enterprise Subscription Activation to function, there a several prerequisites which need to be in place. This blog is aimed for organisations which have Active Directory on premises an

Autopilot Hybrid Azure AD Join with Customised First Login Status

Introduction This is my flavour of deploying a customised HAADJ progress status, building on work by Joymalya Basu Roy's detailed article - https://joymalya.com/autopilot-hybrid-azure-ad-join-reworked-with-joy/ . The differences in my version are: Not using Active Setup to run the HAADJ retry process or Splash Screen as I found this didn't work as expected and I didn't want to add a registry item to affect all future logins with a reboot from the HAADJ process. Running the processes under the context of the SYSTEM account, but displaying status to the interactive user. Avoid the HAADJ process running again after the initial success. This provides a customised first login status which prevents the user from using the devices until Hybrid Azure AD Join from the Autopilot process. It's use is primarily for when the User ESP is configured to be skipped. Files This is my version of customised HAADJ which is built on work and guidance in blogs/articles from Michael Niehaus, S

Upgrade Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (I8160) to Android Jelly Bean

There has been talk of Samsung working on an Android build of Jelly Bean for the Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 (I8160) for quite some time. A couple of leaked versions of the build have been available since the end of February and during March, but these contained various bugs as you might expect. On April 2nd, an official release was available on www.sammobile.com and available for install using KIES or OTA, but only for Portuguese customers on the TMN network.  This was curious as this network didn't actually sell the phone.  It could be a way of getting the early adopters to test this version before the big operators like Telefonica and Vodafone build and release a version themselves. There are many online guides on how to manually download the firmware and apply it to your device, but if you make the direct jump from Gingerbread (2.3) to Jelly Bean (4.1.2) you will likely have RAM issues. The gingerbread versions only allocated around 500MB for RAM whereas Jelly Bean needs more
