Can someone explain what the numbers mean in the Admin Settings section, and under DB Maintenance.
I'm guessing that they are possibly days. Also, Computers Auto Archive appears to be set to 90 by default. Does this mean that if a computer has not checked in around 90 days, it will automatically be archived? Is it possible to turn off computer auto archiving? Thanks

I suspect that wscript.shell needs a user context instead of service.
Interesting enough, the following works fine in Toec to create a Chrome shortcut pointing to a specific web site.
$shell = New-Object -comObject WScript.Shell
$shortcut = $shell.CreateShortcut("C:\Users\Public\Desktop\ETA Test Site - Chrome.lnk")
$shortcut.TargetPath = "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
$shortcut.Arguments = "https://www.eta-i.org"
#$shortcut.WorkingDirectory = ""
$shortcut.Save()

I was able to get around it by using file copy to place the shortcut. Thanks for your time looking into it.
I'm trying to create a shortcut via Toec with the following power shell lines. This works when ran on manually by running the power shell script on a test computer, but via Toec the behavior is different.
Toec creates the shortcut but when you double click it, it doesn't open at all.
$shell = New-Object -comObject WScript.Shell
$shortcut = $shell.CreateShortcut("C:\Users\Public\Desktop\Staff Shortcuts.lnk")
$shortcut.TargetPath = "\servername\DesktopShortcuts\Staff Shortcuts"
$shortcut.IconLocation = "shell32.dll,43"
$shortcut.Save()
Update: I created a zip with Winrar and but the same thing happened.
If I try to copy the files over without zipping them through the Instant Module Runner, I get an error saying "Could Not Start Instant Module".
@theopenem_admin I had zipped the files with whatever the default for 7-Zip version 23.01 is when you right click on the folder and select Add to "fillename.zip". I'm able to extract it with 7-zip without any issue as well. I looked for encoder setting in 7-Zip but was not able to find any.
I noticed that the file copy of Toems changes certain language files when they are copied and extracted from a zip.
The left picture shows the original and the right picture shows how they appear after a file copy to a client computer. I have attached the language files that I was testing with.
One program that I'm trying to install won't install correctly due to the language file changes.
I'm trying to apply a .reg file using reg.exe via the command module. I have tried different working directories but haven't had any luck. Thanks
