Can I "Restore-UevUserSetting" for another user?

Question

Sign in to vote
Hello,

can I as an Administrator somehow reset/empty the UEV Profile of another user? (or specific parts of the UEV profile?)

The only thing i can find is "Restore-UevUserSetting -TemplateID ....".
But this can only be executed from within the users session for his own UEV Profile.

Is there any way? I will have to do this for a lot of users and a lot of times.

Thanks!

CmdLets are not designed for what you are trying to do.

User profiles are secured to the user and can only be controlled globally via Group Policy.

Thanks for your answer.

But the problem is: some programs sometimes have "broken" settings which are saved inside the UEV Profile.

I need to reset the settings for these programs inside the UEV Profile to make the programs load thier defaults.

What is a good solution to this, if need to do it for serveral hundred users?

Give the users a link to the script.

Here are the Group Policy UEV settings. You can enforce a template which should be the same as restoring from a template:
