Per-user action

Usage and Config
1

Not sure where to post this exactly and I’m new to BigFix but something that I thought would be relatively simple I’m having trouble finding a solution for. I imagine this is answered somewhere but I could not find it in my searches.

Question:

How do I create an ACTION that runs at login time for a user? How do I get that action to be performed once per user/workstation?

I need to force registry entries in the HKCU in Windows for the logged in user context and I’m having trouble figuring out how to make that happen.

Thanks for the help.

Bigfix is not the ideal solution for something that needs to be synchronised with user logon - you would be better off creating a scheduled task to run at user logon for that (and Bigfix can be used to create such tasks).

There are many threads on this forum that deal with the intricacies of updating HKCU. One such is HKCU registry based relevance not working after first application - it is old, but deals with many of the featues you seem to be looking for.

Ok thanks for the help. I’ll take a look at that link.
