No worries, have you looked at Active Setup? You could use a run once option?

We set two registry keys and push them out via Group Policy. The key is placed under here:

HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components{00004321-4321-4321-4321-000000004321}

{00004321-4321-4321-4321-000000004321} – is not a real GUID, we just need a place holder.

In that Key, we will have two string values: StubPath and Version

The values for these strings are: StubPath = the command to run the script, which must be available for all users to hit – C:\Windows\temp; \server\sharefile://server/share; etc. Version = needs to be a number separated by 3 commas 1,0,0,1 for example

Here is an example script to set up Active Setup:

$regPath = "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Components{00004321-4321-4321-4321-000000004321}" if(!(Test-Path $regPath)){New-Item -Path $regPath -Force}

New-ItemProperty -Path $regPath -Name 'StubPath' -Value "cscript.exe c:\Windows\Temp\OSPPClean_O16_All.vbs" New-ItemProperty -Path $regPath -Name 'Version' -Value '1,0,0,1'

Now whenever a user logs in, the OSPPClean script will run one time for them

Keep in mind there are other options as well. The above is just an example.

Hi! thank you for the reply. I need this script maybe twice a year, so I'm thinking that GP is too overpowered for it. I'm looking for local solution, when I have only users pc and admin account, for example.
