Hello everyone,
I'm facing an issue in our environment. We have some older Windows 10 PCs that our technicians are reinstalling with Windows 11. The old Windows 10 systems had the MECM client installed, but the newly installed Windows 11 systems do not.
The technicians are reusing the same DNS/computer names for the new systems, and I believe this is causing the problem. MECM still sees the new Windows 11 machines as the old Windows 10 ones and does not recognize them as new devices.
I was able to fix it manually by running the Install Configuration Manager Client Wizard, and that worked. However, we have a lot of reinstalled systems like this, and doing it manually for each one is not practical.
Does anyone know a way to automate or properly handle this scenario?
Thanks in advance!
