- Removes OEM preinstalled software from each student PC
- Auto-configures and saves a wireless network profile on each student PC
- Gives a friendly and unique name to each student device for future management
- Sets Microsoft-recommended school PC settings, including shared PC mode which provides faster sign-in and automatic account cleanup
- Enables optional guest account for younger students, lost passwords, or visitors
