Hello right now I have the dock set via config profile. The users are able to add items just two things are unremovable. I want to switch to dock utility instead of config profile. The question is can I run a script to backup what their current dock is, remove the config profile and the apply this backed up dock?

Dockutil has a —list option which will output the current dock plist.

I would remove the profile and the two forced items, then use —add to append those items back.

Wonderful tool!
