This is a minor thing, but I’m trying to limit the amount of unnecessary popups that people are exposed to when logging in to our lab machines and I was wondering if there’s a way to set the “Welcome to Jamf Connect” splash screen that comes up when you log in to be off for all users? I know you can check a box to say not to display it again after the first time, but I’d rather be able to just set it to never show up.

I thought the option in Jamf Connect Configurator to “Show welcome window” controlled this, but I have it unchecked and the welcome window still shows.

Hi, I believe you need to have a configuration profile (application & custom settings) set up using com.jamf.connect with Appearance Preferences → Show Welcome window → set to false.

 

OR the below if using plist

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"><plist version="1.0">  <dict>    <key>Appearance</key>    <dict>      <key>ShowWelcomeWindow</key>      <false/>    </dict>  </dict></plist>
