Removing Dock Items

I’m using a Jamf Pro Policy to remove dock items from student laptops.  Process works slick, except for the Apple TV app, which stubbornly hangs in there, in spite of my efforts.  Anyone else experience this problem, and perhaps found a solution?  I’ve read about the dockutil, and will probably fool around with it when I have time, but the JAMF GUI would be my preferred solution, if it would work.  Please share ideas.

 

Thanks

Dockutil is a great tool for this!

Could also do a config profile and remove the “merge with user’s dock”.  Then place whatever you want in there.

Love DockUtil as well. If overkill, I think ​@Chubs idea is awesome too.

I’m more of the dynamic approach person.  Let the tooling we have do the lifting :)
