I have a need to launch a Web Site at login with the default browser.
I have a GPO that I have added the following setting to:
User Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Scripts\Logon -> added a simple bat file
BAT file consist of (one line)
@start http://www.myneededsite.com
The BAT file is in the default location within SYSVOL and I have verified that the Security Group of which the GPO is applied has READ & EXECUTE for the BAT file.
My workstation is Windows 10 and it launches fine, no issue at all. I can change default browsers and it launches when I login.
Almost all my customers are still on Windows 7. They are not launching the Web Site upon login.
If I set a login script on their AD account to run the BAT file it works, but not through the GPO.
Why not?
