Restrict users from tinkering with Windows Settings (Before It’s too late!)

Let’s face it, giving users full access to the Settings app is like handing them the keys to your IT kingdom. One tap on proxy settings or a tweak in Windows Defender and boom you're troubleshooting all day. Not anymore. Hexnode’s Windows Settings App policy puts you back in the driver’s seat. With this feature,…

Time zone configuration

Hey folks! We’ve got a bunch of Windows devices spread out across different countries, but we want them all to stick to one specific time zone. Also, we don’t want users messing with the time settings. Anyone done this with Hexnode?

What are the capabilities of setting up a kiosk wallpaper?

I've seen setups where companies use their logos on devices used for retail displays, check-in kiosks, or information screens. Is this something that can be done with Hexnode?

Can someone explain how Asset Risk Profile fits into patch management?

Hey all, I’m setting up patch management policies for our Windows and macOS endpoints and came across the concept of Asset Risk Profile in a few articles. I understand it's meant to help prioritize devices during patch rollout, but I’m a bit fuzzy on how it’s actually used in practice. Can someone explain what exactly…

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?

Windows Group Policy Objects functionality

It will require major work in the Windows Agent but I think this could really set you apart from the competition. Suggestion on how to implement it: Give the Hexnode admin the…
