Windows 10: Prevent Students Using Quora

SSN651 · Oct 1, 2020

I am attempting to prevent my students from using Quora. Either by registry setting or Google Chrome settings.

Students need to use GMail for school communications, and it seems Quora Digest is showing in the Social category.

When the link is activated for the Quora, the address bar changes...
From:
Gmail
To:
Gmail
I want to really set a BLACKLIST item for this, but don't understand how to trap Quora.

Thankx!

:)

When using Quora (Win10 MS Edge) using Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V to cut and paste into a reply or comment results in the display of the HTML assciated with the text. How do I get just text?

Using Web app Quora with WIn10 and MS Edge

When I use CTRL+C to cut text from any website and then use CTRL+V to insert it into my Quora reply/comment the associated HTML is also displayed.

The only way I can work around this is to

Paste the cut into Notepad (CTRL+V)

Recopy it (CTRL+C)

Paste the new snippet into Quora (CTRL+V)

It appears from interaction with others on Quora that this is a MS Edge problem and the suggestion is I use Chrome instead.

I would prefer to use MS Edge

Any solution?

BTW It is a sad comment that the Category list below does not include MS Edge but only refers to Internet Explorer...

Preventing Use of Microsoft Store for Students

I had the Microsoft Store blocked by using registry entries. Lately that has become ineffective. I am using Win10 PRO-2004.

I have used:
Code:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsStore\AutoDownload = 2
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsStore\DisableStoreApps = 1
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsStore\RemoveWindowsStore = 1
Click to expand...

I have also set the Local Security Policy to prevent use for the Students:

I need help blocking the Store with the new culture MS has adopted.

Thank you

Office 365 Education free to students and teachers in US

Making it easier for teachers and students to work together

Microsoft Office has long been a staple in the teacher toolkit for communicating and collaborating with their classes. Today we’re thrilled to announce that we’ve made it easier for teachers to get Office on all their devices—while storing and sharing class material with students using OneDrive.
Last week we were excited to share with you the next steps in bringing Office to everyone, on every device. The updated Office apps for iPhone and iPad and the upcoming Android and Windows 10 apps are full of great features to help students and teachers do more and achieve more. When combined with an Office 365 subscription and full Office, they can do even more and the experience can be incredibly impactful on classroom .

Millions of teachers and students are already eligible through their school to utilize the advanced editing and collaboration capabilities, unlimited OneDrive storage and Dropbox integration of an Office 365 subscription and may not realize it. So we’ve created a simple way for you to find out.
Beginning today, teachers in the U.S. who are eligible to get Office from their school can sign up for Office 365 themselves using a school-provided email address at www.office.com/teachers. Students in the U.S. can check their eligibility at www.office.com/getoffice365.

By signing up for an Office 365 Education account students and teachers receive:

The latest versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, Outlook, Access and Publisher.

Installations of Office on up to five PCs or Macs.

Advanced capabilities on Office mobile apps including Windows tablets, iPad, iPhone and Android (when available).

1 TB of storage using OneDrive for business (unlimited storage coming soon).

Office Online to work on Office files with anyone, anywhere in real-time.

Teachers, to check if you’re eligible:

Go to office.com/teachers.

Enter a valid school-provided email address.

Students, to check if you’re eligible:

Go to office.com/getoffice365.

Enter a valid school-provided email address.

For school IT, allowing students and teachers to use the self-sign up process makes it easier to manage Office 365 and deliver all the benefits of the world’s leading productivity tools to your entire organization.
Worldwide availability of the self-sign up process for both students and faculty is planned for later in the year.
