Any reason why you can't use GPP for this? Or even a basic reg add batch file?

From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of James Rankin Sent: Tuesday, October 27, 2015 5:58 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [NTSysADM] PowerShell setting registry value via logon script I am trying to use a PowerShell logon script to change the user's profile state value in the Registry to simulate a roaming profile (to allow Cookies to be saved properly in IE11). To do this I need the user's SID, which I am pulling out and then setting the Registry value. The script I am using is this $USERSID = ([Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent()).User.Value $regpath = "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\$USERSID" $name = "State" Set-ItemProperty -Path $regpath -Name $name -Value "20" When I run this as the user (logged in), it works perfectly. The Execution Policy is set correctly and also I have used a script to change the Registry permissions at computer startup so that the user has Full Control of the target key. However, when run as a GPO Logon Script the value is never set. Am I missing something here about how PowerShell logon scripts execute? If I use a third-party piece of software (AppSense EM) to do this at logon, it also works perfectly. It's a Windows Server 2012 R2 system running XenApp 7.6 FP3 that I am trying to execute this on, for the record.
