Enable Pre Logon UI – When checked this will allow pre logon messages to be displayed.


Show Package Task Deployment – When checked the BCX Client will display packages installing.

Show Network Status – When checked the network status check is performed on startup, and will display the working offline message if relevant.

Enable Managed Wallpaper - When checked this stops users choosing their own wallpaper

Default package task timeout period – The amount of time to wait for a package task exit gracefully. If 90 minutes has passed BCX will assume the package task has failed, kill the process and will mark as timeout. We would only recommend changing this if there is a specific reason to, after consultation with a BCX engineer.
