Stuck decrypting the C drive

I tried decrypting the C: drive using the force bitlocker decryption remote action, but it failed. Got an error saying the OS drive can't be decrypted until auto-unlock is cleared for all drives. What exactly is auto-unlock? Is it the same as locking/unlocking a drive?

Check the BitLocker decryption status

When decrypting a drive, it can be a hassle to wait for it to finish, and you don't know when the process will be completed. Is there a way to estimate how long the decryption will take?

Hey everyone, I'm trying to disable the password manager in Microsoft Edge, but there’s no direct way to do this from Edge settings. We manage multiple devices, so manually configuring each one isn’t feasible. We use Hexnode UEM for device management, does anyone know if there’s a way to enforce this through Hexnode? Or are…

As an admin user, I'd like the ability to control Windows firewall settings by policy instead of through scripts so that we can automate and standardize our firewall settings.

Disabling Office Macros

My company requires Office Macros are disabled. For Winodws and MacOS, this is not a built in setting in Hexnode policies. I cannot find any Powershell scripts or batch files to run and enable this setting. Can this be built in?

Ability to read and set windows Registry Keys

I would very much have the ability to set registry keys in Windows. It would also be nice if you could read a defined set of registry keys and combine it with a reporting functionality to make a device out of compliance if the keys differ from expected.
