Windows 10: Power policy scheme being updated every ten seconds. Seems a bit excessive.

Microsoft-Windows-UserModePowerService updated my power scheme 54 times in the last ten minutes, in all cases documenting that it replaced the current power scheme with the current power scheme. I.e. Process C:\Windows\System32\WUDFHost.exe process ID:4656 reset policy scheme from {381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e} to {381b4222-f694-41f0-9685-ff5bb260df2e}. This seems to be a regular pass-time of my new laptop. I have adjusted the power scheme disabled waketimers and eliminated any calls to hibernate--which is not perfect, but also n

SCCM Local Policy - BITS

Managing BITS policy for clients can be done several ways - just a few listed here:

1. Group Policy template
2. Local Policy template
3. registry
4. and more...

SCCM client settings for BITS uses local policy to enforce the BITS agent settings.

Consider the following scenario:

SCCM client settings contains BITS settings for max throttle, start and stop times, etc...

SCCM Client settings also have the "Limit the maximum network bandwidth for BITS backgrounds transfers" set to "NO" so, effectively no settings that are configured are actually being enforced.

This is working fine. Here's the issue:

If I fun the following command:

GPResult /scope computer /h file.htm

... the output file will show that this local setting is "enabled" and appears it is enforced.

The setting is not enforced but the reporting mechanism thinks it is. I'm considering this a bug. This burned a customer and cost them several hours of troubleshooting where this setting was coming from because they swore that SCCM was not setting it.
