UEM and Google Chrome need help

I need assistance with getting UEM to create an archive of the Google Chrome.

I have other apps configured and working without any issues... (firefox, winscp, notepad++, etc...)

I profiled the Chrome to get some initial setting. From the logs I see UEM import the Chrome settings.

I then make some changes to see if it will export it does not.  I have tried it with both DirectFlex enabled and disabled with process during logon/logoff.

The only way I have been able to get it to work is manually run FlexEngine.exe -s.

Our environment:

Horizon 7.2

UEM latest 9.3

Windows 10 LTSB 64 bit Instant Clones, no App Volumes enabled

Latest Google Chrome 65.

Ideas?

Creating a UEM config file for Chrome can be hard.

Please read this thread, it should give you guidance and probably a solution:

Pim_van_de_Vis thanks for the response.  However, the way the config is done has nothing to do with my issue.  After more investigation the issue is the GPO Logoff Script is failing. The fix for my issue is the same that vJoeG posted in Jan 2017. UEM Logoff GPO doesn't run

After making the logoff script local it works fine.

You could also consider setting up UEM in NoAD mode, so you no longer need GPO's and logoff scripts.

Installing and Configuring User Environment Manager in NoAD Mode

That might be a possibility.  It would be nice to know why the GPO isn't working.

Hi radlin1984,

To help troubleshoot why the logoff script is not running, can you post an export of HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\Scripts\Logoff?

Just a quick note to say I wouldn't use a Chrome config based on the application profiler - it creates a config that is completely inadequate and will eventually result in huge Chrome profiles, and awful logon times.

I'd 100% go with either Pim's suggested config, or this one Chrome.zip , both of which will ensure Chrome doesn't become an issue as the months pass by (which it will without one of these two if it is widely utilised by your org).
