Error “This app can’t run on your PC” trying to use Remote Assistance on the ControlUp Console
When attempting to use Remote Assistance from the console, a file with no association appears. It is not possible to use the console on Server machines. Enabling the desktop experience feature may help. There is also a scripted action called "Shadow session" to enable it properly, however group policy values and administrator access to the target machine may be required. More information can be found at https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/shadow-session/.

Syncing Between AD and ControlUp
A user asked about putting in place a sync between AD and ControlUp and wondered what the folderpath attribute should look like in their case. The universal sync script is the replacement for the CVAD script, and should be used for EUC. It was suggested to add an introductory section comparing the AD Sync and EUC Sync to the documentation, which the team is now doing. The link in the EUC Sync documentation was removed due to being deprecated. The updated documents can be found at https://support.controlup.com/docs.

A user asked for a way to examine slow logons in a new FSLogix configuration. @member suggested watching the ControlUp Analyze Logon Duration webinar for an introduction to the ALD script, followed by the extended Q&A blog/video. They also recommended launching an FSLogix log parser script to look for retries and the "loadProfile time" in the ControlUp logs. The user is asked to report their results.

How to Easily Keep Track of View in ControlUp Solve?
A user was having difficulty keeping track of their views when moving between locations in Solve. They wanted the ability to have set the same default view everywhere, which is currently not a feature. Dennis suggested that the configuration for the views can be found in a file, and an API endpoint exists to save presets, but difficulties in table configuration and view translation remain. Chris commented to review the notes given by a member and Dennis updated that this behavior is not intuitive and is highly prioritized.

Creating a Script for Maintenance Mode Changes on Citrix Machines
This discussion was about creating a script to show who changed maintenance mode on Citrix machines and when, as well as potential logs for restarts, forced logoffs and MCS updates. The ControlUp Script Library already includes a script that shows log information, but users suggested modifications to provide more detailed information such as for maintenance mode changes. The discussion was in favour of this idea as it would allow for quicker learning of the why behind accidental maintenance mode changes. The Script Library URL is https://www.controlup.com/script-library-posts/show-citrix-director-actions/.
