# Use the Set up School PCs app
IT administrators and technical teachers can use the **Set up School PCs** app to quickly set up Windows devices for students. During setup, student devices can be enrolled in Microsoft Intune, so that you can manage all the settings the app configures through Intune.
With Set up School PCs you can:
- Joins student devices to your organization's Microsoft Entra tenant
- Enable the optional Autopilot Reset feature, to return devices to a fully configured or known IT-approved state
- Use Windows Update and maintenance hours to keep student devices up-to-date, without interfering with class time
- Lock down student devices to prevent activity that aren't beneficial to their education
This article describes how to use the Set up School PCs app. To learn more about the app's functionality, review the [Technical reference for the Set up School PCs app](set-up-school-pcs-technical.md).
:::image type="content" source="images/suspcs/splash-screen.png" alt-text="Screenshot of the SUSPCs splash screen." border="false":::
## Requirements
Before you begin, make sure that your devices and your school's network are configured with the following requirements:
- Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft 365 licenses
- [Latest Set up School PCs app](https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9NBLGGH4LS40)
- A NTFS-formatted USB drive that is at least 1 GB
- Student devices must either:
- Be within range of the Wi-Fi network that you configured in the app
- Have a wired Ethernet connection when you set them up
### Prepare existing PC account for new setup
Apply new packages to factory reset or new devices. If you apply it to a device that's already set up, you may lose the accounts and data.
If a device is already set up, and you want to apply a new package, reset the device to a clean state. To reset a device, follow these steps:
1. Open the **Settings** app on target device
1. Select **Update & Security** > **Recovery**
1. In the **Reset this PC** section, select **Get started**
1. Select **Remove everything**
Alternatively, you can also select **Start** > **Power** icon. Hold down <kbd>Shift</kbd> while selecting **Restart** to load the Windows boot user experience:
1. Select **Troubleshoot** > **Reset this PC**
1. Select **Remove everything**
1. If the option appears, select **Only the drive where Windows is installed**
1. Select **Just remove my files**
1. Select **Reset**
## Recommendations
This section offers recommendations to prepare you for the best possible setup experience.
### Run the same Windows build on the admin device and the student devices
We recommend you run the IT administrator or technical teacher's device on the same Windows build as the student devices.
### Student devices must meet OS requirements for the app
Check the OS requirements in the Set up School PCs app. We recommend using the latest Set up School PCs app along with the latest Windows images on the student devices.
To check the app's OS requirements, go to the Microsoft Store and locate the Set up School PCs app. In the app's description, go to **System Requirements** > **OS**.
### Use app on a PC that is connected to your school's network
We recommend that you run the Set up School PCs app on a computer that's connected to your school's network. That way the app can gather accurate information about your school's wireless networks and cloud subscriptions. If it's not connected, you need to enter the information manually.
>[!NOTE]
>Don't use the **Set up Schools PCs** app for devices that must connect to enterprise or open Wi-Fi networds that require the user to accept Terms of Use.
### Run app on an open network or network that requires a basic password
Don't use Set up School PCs over a certificate-based network, or one where you have to enter credentials in a browser. If you need to set up many devices over Wi-Fi, make sure that your network configuration can support it.
We recommend that you:
- Configure your DHCP so at least 200 IP addresses are available for your devices. Having available IP addresses allow you to set up many devices simultaneously
- Configure your IP addresses to expire after a short time, for example 30 minutes. IP addresses free up quickly so you can continue to set up devices without network issues.
>[!WARNING]
>Only use the provisioning package on devices that you want to configure and lock down for students. After you apply the provisioning package to a student device, the PC must be reset to remove the settings.
### Use an additional USB drive
To set up more than one PC at the same time, save the provisioning package to additional USB drives. Then plug the USBs in at the same time during setup.
### Limit changes to school-optimized settings
We strongly recommend that you avoid changing preset policies. Changes can slow down setup, performance, and the time it takes to sign in.
## Create the provisioning package
The **Set up School PCs** app guides you through the configuration choices for the student PCs. To begin, open the app on your device and select **Get started**.

The provisioning package on your USB drive is named SetupSchoolPCs_<*devicename*>(Expires <*expiration date*>.ppkg. A provisioning package applies settings to Windows without reimaging the device.
When used in context of the Set up School PCs app, the word *package* refers to your provisioning package. The word *provisioning* refers to the act of installing the package on the student device. This section describes how to apply the settings to a device in your school.
> [!IMPORTANT]
> The devices must have a new or reset Windows image and must not already have been through first-run setup experience (which is referred to as *OOBE*). For instructions about how to reset a devices's image, see [Prepare existing PC account for new setup](use-set-up-school-pcs-app.md#prepare-existing-pc-account-for-new-setup).
1. Start with the student device turned off or with the device on the first-run setup screen. If the device is past the account setup screen, reset the device to start over. To reset the it, go to **Settings** > **Update & security** > **Recovery** > **Reset this PC**
1. Insert the USB drive. Windows automatically recognizes and installs the package
1. When you receive the message that it's okay to remove the USB drive, remove it from the device. If there are more devices to set up, insert the USB drive into the next one
1. If you didn't set up the package with Microsoft Entra join, continue the Windows device setup experience. If you did configure the package with Microsoft Entra join, the device is ready for use and no further configurations are required
If successful, you'll see a setup complete message. The PCs start up on the lock screen, with your school's custom background. Upon first use, students and teachers can connect to your school's network and resources.

# What's in my provisioning package?
The Set up School PCs app builds a specialized provisioning package with school-optimized settings.
A key feature of the provisioning package is SharedPC mode. To learn about the technical framework of SharedPC mode, including the description of each setting, see the [Manage multi-user and guest Windows devices with Shared PC](/windows/configuration/shared-pc-technical) article.
## Shared PC Mode policies
The following table outlines the policies applied to devices in SharedPC mode. If you select to optimize a device for use by a single student, you find differences in the policies applied:
- Disk level deletion
- Inactive threshold
- Restrict local storage
In the table, *True* means that the setting is enabled, allowed, or applied. Use the **Description** column to help you understand the context for each setting.
For a more detailed look at the policies, see the Windows article [Set up shared or guest PC](/windows/configuration/set-up-shared-or-guest-pc#policies-set-by-shared-pc-mode).
| Policy name | Default value | Description |
|--|--|--|
| Enable Shared PC mode | True | Configures the PCs so they're in shared PC mode. |
| Set education policies | True | School-optimized settings are applied to the PCs so that they're appropriate for an educational environment. To see all recommended and enabled policies, see [Windows 10 configuration recommendation for education customers](./configure-windows-for-education.md). |
| Account Model | Only guest, Domain-joined only, or Domain-joined and guest | Controls how users can sign in on the PC. Configurable from the Set up School PCs app. Choosing domain-joined enables any user in the domain to sign in. Specifying the guest option adds the Guest option to the sign-in screen and enable anonymous guest access to the PC. |
| Deletion policy | Delete at disk space threshold and inactive threshold | Delete at disk space threshold starts deleting accounts when available disk space falls below the threshold you set for disk level deletion. It stops deleting accounts when the available disk space reaches the threshold you set for disk level caching. Accounts are deleted in order of oldest accessed to most recently accessed. Also deletes accounts if they haven't signed in within the number of days specified by inactive threshold policy. |
| Disk level caching | 50% | Sets 50% of total disk space to be used as the disk space threshold for account caching. |
| Disk level deletion | For shared device setup, 25%; for single device-student setup, 0%. | When devices are optimized for shared use, the policy sets 25% of total disk space as the disk space threshold for account caching. When devices are optimized for use by a single student, the policy sets the value to 0% and doesn't delete accounts. |
| Enable account manager | True | Enables automatic account management. |
| Inactive threshold | For shared device setup, 30 days; for single device-student setup, 180 days. | After the threshold, if an account hasn't signed in, its user profile is deleted. |
| Kiosk Mode AMUID | `Microsoft.Windows.SecureAssessmentBrowser_cw5n1h2txyewy!App` | Configures the kiosk account on student devices to only run the Take a Test secure assessment browser. |
| Kiosk Mode User Tile Display Text | Take a Test | Displays "Take a Test" as the name of the kiosk account on student devices. |
| Restrict local storage | For shared device setup, True; for single device-student setup, False. | When devices are optimized for shared use across multiple PCs, this policy forces students to save to the cloud to prevent data loss. When your devices are optimized for use by a single student, this policy doesn't prevent students from saving on the PCs local hard drive. |
| Maintenance start time | 0 - midnight | The maintenance start time when automatic maintenance tasks, such as Windows Update, run on student devices. |
| Max page file size in MB | 1024 | Sets the maximum size of the paging file to 1,024 MB. Applies only to systems with less than 32-GB storage and at least 3 GB of RAM. |
| Set power policies | True | Prevents users from changing power settings and turns off hibernate. Also overrides all power state transitions to sleep, such as lid close. |
| Sign in on resume | True | Requires the device user to sign in with a password when the PC wakes from sleep. |
| Sleep timeout | 3,600 seconds | Specifies the maximum idle time before the PC should sleep. If you don't set sleep timeout, the default time, 3,600 seconds (1 hour), is applied. |
## MDM and local group policies
This section lists only the MDM and local group policies that are configured uniquely for the Set up School PCs app.
For a more detailed look of each policy listed, see [Policy CSP](/windows/client-management/mdm/policy-configuration-service-provider) in the Windows IT Pro Center documentation.

| Update | Active hours start | 7 AM |
| Updates Windows | Nightly | Sets Windows to update on a nightly basis. |
## Apps uninstalled from Windows devices
Set up School PCs app uses the Universal app uninstall policy. The policy identifies default apps that aren't relevant to the classroom experience, and uninstalls them from each device. The apps uninstalled from Windows devices are:
- Mixed Reality Viewer
- Weather
- Desktop App Installer
- Tips
- Messaging
- My Office
- Microsoft Solitaire Collection
- Mobile Plans
- Feedback Hub
- Xbox
- Mail/Calendar
- Skype
## Apps installed on Windows devices
Set up School PCs uses the Universal app install policy to install school-relevant apps on all Windows 10 devices. The following apps are installed:
- OneDrive
- OneNote
- Sway
## Provisioning time estimates
The time it takes to install a package on a device depends on the:
- Strength of network connection
- Number of policies and apps within the package
- Other configurations made to the device
Review the table below to estimate your expected provisioning time. A package that only applies Set Up School PC's default configurations provisions the fastest. A package that removes preinstalled apps, through CleanPC, will take longer to provision.
| Configurations | Connection type | Estimated provisioning time |
|--|--|--|
| Default settings only | Wi-Fi | 3 to 5 minutes |
| Default settings + apps | Wi-Fi | 10 to 15 minutes |
| Default settings + remove preinstalled apps (CleanPC) | Wi-Fi | 60 minutes |
| Default settings + other settings (Not CleanPC) | Wi-Fi | 5 minutes |

# What is Set up School PCs?
The **Set up School PCs** app helps you configure new Windows 10 PCs for school use. The app, which is available for Windows 10 version 1703 and later, configures and saves school-optimized settings, apps, and policies into a single provisioning package. You can then save the package to a USB drive and distribute it to your school PCs.
If your school uses Microsoft Entra ID or Office 365, the Set up
School PCs app will create a setup file. This file joins the PC to your Microsoft Entra tenant. The app also helps set up PCs for use with or without Internet connectivity.
