How do I configure just the settings on the PC I'm on? For example, I want to change the SMART status to "on" (check disks), or if I want to enable keyboard backlight?
1. Install Dell Command | Configure on to your device. 2. Run 'Dell Command | Configure Wizard'. 3. Set all your variables (I used 'Create Multiplatform Package'), then export .exe 4. If you have an Admin BIOS password set, that's referred to as 'Setup Password', so enter that otherwise it can't unlock the BIOS to apply your settings. 5. It outputs 2x sh files and 32-bit and 64-bit .exe files. You can get away with just using the 64-bit .exe (no need to wrap all the files). 6. I still used a PowerShell script to install the .exe as I've created a Registry Key so that I know where it has deployed to, and what 'version' of settings I've deployed. 6a. If using PowerShell, the part in your script to install this .exe would be: Start-Process -FilePath "$PSScriptRoot ameofyour.exe" -Wait 7. Use the IntuneWinAppUtil to wrap your .exe (and PS script if you've used one). 7a. When prompted by the wrapper, reference your PowerShell script as the installer, or reference the 'nameofyourfile.exe' if you aren't using a PS script. 8. Upload to Intune (Win32App). 8a. If you've used a PowerShell script, the Install command would be: powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File Install.ps1 8b. If you've only wrapped the .exe and aren't using PowerShell, it'd be: nameofyour.exe 8b.. /s isn't required. /s will cause a deployment timeout as it doesn't work. 9. Not sure what Detection Method you would use if you didn't create a Registry Key using a PowerShell Script. 10. Assignment - no restart is required and there's nothing visible on the end user side. Hope that helps :)
Unfortunately this Dell Configure Package creates packages under that weird location OSD\lib\Packages\Deployment.... to which we don't have access and we are blocking unapproved executables, allowing only from specific path. So the workaround for us is to run the package on a machine, copy the cache files and create another package. A bit annoying...
If a password is not set on a remote system and I set a password under 'SetupPwd' and mask it. Why does the password not get applied when I run the exe for a remote system??

I see that you can Mask the password when exporting the bios settings file, which is great. Does anyone know if the Dell Flush utility support encrypted Bios password while upgrading the Bios? If yes can you give me a hint how I can do this? Btw I'm new to Dell world and thanks for the video, gave me an idea where I start.

Most suprising part, you call yourselves professionals but you can't even explain the roots of software, how can you just say use console without explaining what is console and how to configure it.

Could we get an updated video on the process when using Intune instead of SCCM?

I got an error and can't export .exe using either create multiplatform package or local system package. The only thing that works is export config.
is there any Video or instruction shows the same steps on MDT?
How would you deploy the bios package using desktop central manage engine?

so does Dell got any feature like Lenovo's Smart USB protection?

So does anything need to be added to WinPE to enable the BIOS setting file to run? Guess I need to set this up in my lab.
Thanks!
