???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I think the problem is you, because I have read and reread all of these posts twice and here is what I get out of you:
- Each individual machine is on no LAN or WAN and runs where it sits, disconnected from other any other machine interaction
- Each individual machine has different, unique services embedded in this Update machinery
- Each individual machine receives its own unique updates
You tell other members that they cannot suggest a tool because:
- You tell us that a tool is forbidden, but not why
- You tell us any tool needs to be licensed, but not by which entity
Then you tell us:
-I have to find a way to write the appropriate script. I'm not really amused, but this is the only thing to do.
- I create my own scripts.
A programming tool or software development tool is a computer program that software developers use to create, debug, maintain, or otherwise support other programs and applications.
So you will write scripts to fix the problem, but have not stated if you are qualified or licensed to do so, NOR have you explained why get to do this, and it is not forbidden for YOU to do so.
Every possible and sensible solution others offer, end up with you either revealing another "need to know" item that you did not state prior... or you double standard something you said before... that others cannot suggest tools, ... but you can write scripts that are not licensed and are not forbidden... of which "tools" are simply scripts and/or programs with a GUI or not.
You state that you work in the health-sector... embedded software for LTSC machines, better calling invitro-diagnostics... and this makes no sense, Do you men that you "embed" software for LTSC machines?
Summarizing so far, I maintain that the problem is with you, and here is why:
If I were your supervisor and discovered that a professional like you were seeking solutions to your problems in the public sector, by other, unlicensed individuals, to give you a "spark" in helping you do something that you aren't currently able to do... but which the rest of us seem confident we can do... using "Tools".... then I would seriously have to consider retaining you as a value-added employee.
This entire thread of yours is a convoluted rabbit hole of double standards and caveats, which you seem to be immune from (writing your own "Tool" a.k.a. Scripts/Programs without license and which is forbidden)
You have emphasized the extreme importance of the material in this lab, or whatever it is where you poke around trying to find solutions, and resort to amateurs on the Internet for fixes... like a doctor going to other patients to find a cure for another one of his patients, instead of consulting other experts in the relative field.
In closing, you implied that I suffer from The Dunning–Kruger effect: a cognitive bias whereby people with low ability, expertise, or experience regarding a certain type of a task or area of knowledge tend to overestimate their ability or knowledge. Some researchers also include in their definition the opposite effect for high performers: their tendency to underestimate their skills.
I counter to you #Peter-Principle
I wonder what you think about others trying to help, whom you have consistently rejected, and what your supervisor would do, to know you were looking for answers from unlicensed and forbidden resources... people who, if they persist... suddenly experience the Dunning–Kruger effect in your expert opinion.
I read through a few pages of your posts, and the "self-entitled" attitude shines, and I am certain that an Admin or two might view this and have to reach a conclusion on the matter... but the fact that you are a professional in a highly critical medical research field ... seeking solutions from a forum that is unqualified to advise you, and you are too proud to seek professional help fro IT experts with LTSC and LTSB 1st production Windows 10 OS's.
What would happen were one of our unprofessional and unlicensed suggestions to pass your approval, and you use it, and disaster strikes in the lab?
Professional "experts" like you make ME cringe... because there are people's lives out there who depend upon the research that may save their lives... and you say you are writing your own scripts and programs for... but can't seem to fix the problem, or ask those in the IT field who are licensed for the answers. This sort of violates the principles of the user policies of this forum, in my view.
*Cringe*
