Knowing this was a Boolean Object, if I wanted to clear the box I needed to set it from $True (checked off) to $False (Cleared) For this we can leverage the gettype() method which will show us the Type of object it is. I needed to know type of an object it contained, in this case the ‘openAtLogin’ one. I examined one of the values that I was interested in. I could see several settings, but one appeared to contain the four I was looking for, “appPreferenceSettings” Once I had this object I could examine the contents (and did of course!) $JSONObject=ConvertFrom-Json -InputObject $FileContent # Convert Content from JSON format into a PowerShell Object $FileContent=Get-Content -path "$ENV:APPDATA\Microsoft\Teams\desktop-config.json" Since it was a JSON formatted file, I was able to read it and Convert it to a standard PowerShell object using this piece of PowerShell # Read File into memory and store in $FileContent Object

There was a Policy that could be found here to prevent the initial startup that could be found here. I saw the settings in questions but there didn’t appear to be a Group Policy which managed them. They can be accessed under the “Settings” in Teams Let’s begin by examining the settings we are trying to change. For which it produced a most interesting solution when I asked Sean Kearney one of our Microsoft PFE’s to look at it. Could you lend me a hand?Ī very excellent question.
