I have never figured out the ones that don't work right... I did just read that skipping Accessibility is a "Monterey" setting but I don't believe it .... : )

Also there a Apple bug that is causing the set up assistant to not finish correctly randomly so that could have some effect with what you are trying to do..

In theory this check box should fast advance through all those setting but I wasn't able to get it working.

Yep, we have that box checked. No dice.

This isn't a huge deal, but advancing past these screens is just one more thing for our teachers to remind their students about, when logging onto one of these computers for the first time.

Found the following script (I believe it might have been an @rtrouton script... Works in big sur...

Thanks for that -- I'll have to look into using it.

Any idea exactly how it should be deployed? Which triggers should be used and how often?
