- Interfaccia facile da utilizzare: Migliora l’esperienza dell’utente con icone e interfacce personalizzate.
- Responsabilità durante l’utilizzo: Sottolinea la necessità di un uso responsabile per evitare l’affaticamento da notifica.
- Possibilità di integrazione con gli strumenti MSP: Può essere integrato con strumenti come NinjaOne per ottimizzare i processi di gestione IT.
- Importanza dei test e degli aggiornamenti: È essenziale eseguire test approfonditi e mantenere lo script aggiornato per le nuove versioni di Windows.
Nel panorama dinamico della gestione IT, una comunicazione efficace con gli utenti finali è fondamentale. Ciò include la possibilità di notificare tempestivamente le azioni necessarie, come il riavvio o l’aggiornamento del sistema. Gli script PowerShell, che offrono un mix di flessibilità ed efficienza, stanno diventando sempre più la soluzione ideale per queste attività.
Background
Lo script PowerShell fornito è uno strumento avanzato progettato per i fornitori di servizi gestiti (MSP) e i professionisti IT. Consente di visualizzare messaggi pop-up personalizzabili sulle schermate degli utenti. Questo script è particolarmente utile per ricordare o istruire gli utenti a eseguire azioni specifiche, come il riavvio del computer dopo gli aggiornamenti o la manutenzione.
Lo script per messaggi pop-up:
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Displays a popup on the end user's screen. The script needs to be run as the 'Current Logged In User'. Use "Restart Reminder" to display a request to the end user to restart their computer.
.DESCRIPTION
Displays a popup on the end user's screen. The script needs to be run as the 'Current Logged In User'. Use "Restart Reminder" to display a request to the end user to restart their computer.
See the comment block in this script's code for extra options such as changing the logo or the window title.
Uses Windows Presentation Framework to accommodate different DPIs and image scaling. On Windows 7 and Server 2008, the script will use the older Windows Form UI.
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 164 or 168 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image to a machine.
.EXAMPLE
(No Parameters on Windows 11)
Result: Success
PARAMETER: -RestartReminder
Displays a generic prompt requesting the user restart their machine.
This parameter is equivalent to the below options.
-Text "Your IT Administrator is requesting that you restart your computer. Click 'Restart Now' after saving your work."
-ButtonLText "Restart Now"
-ButtonLaction "shutdown.exe /r /t 30"
-ButtonRText "Ignore"
-ButtonRcountdown 900
-ButtonRDefault
.EXAMPLE
-RestartReminder (Server 2008)
WARNING: PowerShell 2 cannot import the presentation framework switching to winform...
Ignore (895) Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ApplicationID "ReplaceWithWindowTitle/ApplicationID"
This will replace the window title and it will also change the taskbar overlay icon and logo/image used in the popup
with the Notification Icon used by that Application ID if it exists and is not overridden by another parameter.
This is the same application ID used by the Send-UserPrompt and the built-in Windows notification system.
.EXAMPLE
-ApplicationID "Contoso Inc"
Application ID with Icon found! Checking if the icon and logo were supplied elsewhere...
The icon was not specified elsewhere in the script switching from the default icon to the Applications Notification Icon.
The logo/image was not specified elsewhere in the script switching from the default image to the Applications Notification Icon.
You can also switch the default Application ID on line 128
PARAMETER: -LogoPath "C:ReplaceThisPath.png"
The location of an image you would like to use in the large image window.
This script is running as the end-user so their account will need permission to this path.
Can be given a URL. Just keep in mind that Ninja doesn't support these special characters: &|;$><`!.
Can be given any size image however the script will center it and then scale it into a 250px x 125px rectangle.
The image will always be centered and a square 1:1 ratio will work.
Scaling is not done on Server 2008 and Windows 7 (The image is simply centered and you may see it cut off the image if the image is too large).
Supported image formats: .png, .jpg, .ico, .gif (GIFs will be static and not animated.)
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 165 or 169 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image and give the script a path to it.
PARAMETER: -IconPath "C:ReplaceThisPath.png"
The location of an icon you would like to use for the taskbar overlay and window title bar.
This script is running as the end-user so their account will need permission to this path.
Can be given a URL. Just keep in mind that Ninja doesn't support these special characters: &|;$><`!.
Can be given any icon size however the script will convert it to 64px x 64px so it is recommended to keep to the 1:1 ratio so that the image is not squished.
Supported image formats: .png, .jpg, .ico, .gif (GIFs will be static and not animated.)
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 164 or 168 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image and give the script a path to it.
PARAMETER: -Text "ReplaceMeWithTextYouWantInsideThePopUp"
The text you would like displayed inside the popup.
If too much text is written, a scrollbar will automatically appear, allowing the end-user to view all the text.
PARAMETER: -AllowResize
By default, resizing the popup is not allowed. Use -AllowResize to allow resizing the window.
PARAMETER: -ButtonR
Add a button to the bottom right (can only be specified once).
PARAMETER: -ButtonRdefault
Set the right button as the default button. This will allow end-users to simply hit the enter key when the window is in focus to perform a click.
PARAMETER: -ButtonRtext "TextYouWouldLikeInsideTheButton"
Change the text from 'Right Button' to whatever you put encased in quotes.
.EXAMPLE
-ButtonRtext "Later"
Later Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ButtonRaction "ReplaceWithAnyCMDcommand"
This will set the action the right button performs when clicked. Can be given any command that will work in cmd.exe as well as parameters. ex. logoff.exe
PARAMETER: -ButtonRcountdown "160"
This will add a countdown to the right button with your input in seconds. When the countdown reaches 0 it'll click the button for the end user.
The left and right button countdown cannot be used at the same time.
PARAMETER: -ButtonL
Add a button to the bottom left (can only be specified once).
PARAMETER: -ButtonLdefault
Set the left button as the default button. This will allow end-users to simply hit the enter key when the window is in focus to perform a click.
PARAMETER: -ButtonLtext "TextYouWouldLikeInsideTheButton"
Change the text from 'Left Button' to whatever you put encased in quotes.
.EXAMPLE
-ButtonLtext "Later"
Later Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ButtonLaction "ReplaceWithAnyCMDcommand"
This will set the action the left button performs when clicked. Can be given any command that will work in cmd.exe as well as parameters. ex. logoff.exe
PARAMETER: -ButtonLcountdown
This will add a countdown to the left button with your input in seconds. When the countdown reaches 0 it'll click the button for the end user.
The left and right button countdown cannot be used at the same time.
PARAMETER: -Verbose
More verbose output (useful for troubleshooting).

<#
.SYNOPSIS
Displays a popup on the end user's screen. The script needs to be run as the 'Current Logged In User'. Use "Restart Reminder" to display a request to the end user to restart their computer.
.DESCRIPTION
Displays a popup on the end user's screen. The script needs to be run as the 'Current Logged In User'. Use "Restart Reminder" to display a request to the end user to restart their computer.
See the comment block in this script's code for extra options such as changing the logo or the window title.
Uses Windows Presentation Framework to accommodate different DPIs and image scaling. On Windows 7 and Server 2008, the script will use the older Windows Form UI.
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 164 or 168 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image to a machine.
.EXAMPLE
(No Parameters on Windows 11)
Result: Success
PARAMETER: -RestartReminder
Displays a generic prompt requesting the user restart their machine.
This parameter is equivalent to the below options.
-Text "Your IT Administrator is requesting that you restart your computer. Click 'Restart Now' after saving your work."
-ButtonLText "Restart Now"
-ButtonLaction "shutdown.exe /r /t 30"
-ButtonRText "Ignore"
-ButtonRcountdown 900
-ButtonRDefault
.EXAMPLE
-RestartReminder (Server 2008)
WARNING: PowerShell 2 cannot import the presentation framework switching to winform...
Ignore (895) Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ApplicationID "ReplaceWithWindowTitle/ApplicationID"
This will replace the window title and it will also change the taskbar overlay icon and logo/image used in the popup
with the Notification Icon used by that Application ID if it exists and is not overridden by another parameter.
This is the same application ID used by the Send-UserPrompt and the built-in Windows notification system.
.EXAMPLE
-ApplicationID "Contoso Inc"
Application ID with Icon found! Checking if the icon and logo were supplied elsewhere...
The icon was not specified elsewhere in the script switching from the default icon to the Applications Notification Icon.
The logo/image was not specified elsewhere in the script switching from the default image to the Applications Notification Icon.
You can also switch the default Application ID on line 128
PARAMETER: -LogoPath "C:ReplaceThisPath.png"
The location of an image you would like to use in the large image window.
This script is running as the end-user so their account will need permission to this path.
Can be given a URL. Just keep in mind that Ninja doesn't support these special characters: &|;$><`!.
Can be given any size image however the script will center it and then scale it into a 250px x 125px rectangle.
The image will always be centered and a square 1:1 ratio will work.
Scaling is not done on Server 2008 and Windows 7 (The image is simply centered and you may see it cut off the image if the image is too large).
Supported image formats: .png, .jpg, .ico, .gif (GIFs will be static and not animated.)
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 165 or 169 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image and give the script a path to it.
PARAMETER: -IconPath "C:ReplaceThisPath.png"
The location of an icon you would like to use for the taskbar overlay and window title bar.
This script is running as the end-user so their account will need permission to this path.
Can be given a URL. Just keep in mind that Ninja doesn't support these special characters: &|;$><`!.
Can be given any icon size however the script will convert it to 64px x 64px so it is recommended to keep to the 1:1 ratio so that the image is not squished.
Supported image formats: .png, .jpg, .ico, .gif (GIFs will be static and not animated.)
You can also convert an image to base64 and replace either lines 164 or 168 if you'd prefer to not have to download an image and give the script a path to it.
PARAMETER: -Text "ReplaceMeWithTextYouWantInsideThePopUp"
The text you would like displayed inside the popup.
If too much text is written, a scrollbar will automatically appear, allowing the end-user to view all the text.
PARAMETER: -AllowResize
By default, resizing the popup is not allowed. Use -AllowResize to allow resizing the window.
PARAMETER: -ButtonR
Add a button to the bottom right (can only be specified once).
PARAMETER: -ButtonRdefault
Set the right button as the default button. This will allow end-users to simply hit the enter key when the window is in focus to perform a click.
PARAMETER: -ButtonRtext "TextYouWouldLikeInsideTheButton"
Change the text from 'Right Button' to whatever you put encased in quotes.
.EXAMPLE
-ButtonRtext "Later"
Later Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ButtonRaction "ReplaceWithAnyCMDcommand"
This will set the action the right button performs when clicked. Can be given any command that will work in cmd.exe as well as parameters. ex. logoff.exe
PARAMETER: -ButtonRcountdown "160"
This will add a countdown to the right button with your input in seconds. When the countdown reaches 0 it'll click the button for the end user.
The left and right button countdown cannot be used at the same time.
PARAMETER: -ButtonL
Add a button to the bottom left (can only be specified once).
PARAMETER: -ButtonLdefault
Set the left button as the default button. This will allow end-users to simply hit the enter key when the window is in focus to perform a click.
PARAMETER: -ButtonLtext "TextYouWouldLikeInsideTheButton"
Change the text from 'Left Button' to whatever you put encased in quotes.
.EXAMPLE
-ButtonLtext "Later"
Later Button Clicked!
PARAMETER: -ButtonLaction "ReplaceWithAnyCMDcommand"
This will set the action the left button performs when clicked. Can be given any command that will work in cmd.exe as well as parameters. ex. logoff.exe
PARAMETER: -ButtonLcountdown
This will add a countdown to the left button with your input in seconds. When the countdown reaches 0 it'll click the button for the end user.
The left and right button countdown cannot be used at the same time.
PARAMETER: -Verbose
More verbose output (useful for troubleshooting).

Analisi dettagliata
Funzionalità principale: Lo script per messaggi pop-up utilizza il Windows Presentation Framework per le versioni moderne di Windows e ricorre a Windows Forms per i sistemi più vecchi, come Windows 7 o Server 2008. Viene visualizzato un pop-up con opzioni personalizzabili come pulsanti, timer per il conto alla rovescia e testo personalizzato.
Personalizzazione e flessibilità: Lo script offre vari parametri di personalizzazione, tra cui testo, pulsanti, azioni per ciascun pulsante e timer per il conto alla rovescia. Permette inoltre di utilizzare immagini e icone personalizzate, migliorando l’interfaccia utente.
Codifica Base64 per le immagini: Una caratteristica innovativa è la possibilità di utilizzare immagini codificate in base64 per le icone e i loghi, eliminando la necessità di file immagine esterni.
Variabili d’ambiente e impostazioni predefinite: Lo script per messaggi pop-up può utilizzare le variabili d’ambiente per le impostazioni e i valori predefiniti, semplificando in questo modo la distribuzione su più sistemi.
Casi d’uso potenziali
Immagina un reparto IT che deve ricordare a centinaia di utenti di riavviare il computer dopo un aggiornamento importante. Utilizzando questo script, possono distribuire dei messaggi pop-up con un timer di conto alla rovescia e un pulsante “Riavvia ora”, riducendo al minimo le interruzioni e garantendo la conformità.
Confronti
I metodi tradizionali, come le notifiche via e-mail o i promemoria manuali, sono meno efficaci e richiedono più tempo rispetto a questo approccio automatizzato. Rispetto agli strumenti di terze parti, questo script per messaggi pop-up offre una maggiore personalizzazione e si integra perfettamente nei flussi di lavoro PowerShell esistenti.
Domande frequenti
Q1: Questo script per messaggi pop-up può essere utilizzato su qualsiasi versione di Windows?
R: È progettato per Windows 7 e versioni più recenti, comprese le edizioni server.
Q2: È possibile personalizzare l’aspetto del pop-up?
R: Sì, puoi personalizzare il testo, i pulsanti e persino aggiungere immagini e icone.
Q3: Posso utilizzare questo script per eseguire azioni diverse dai promemoria di riavvio?
R: Assolutamente. Lo script è versatile e può essere adattato a diverse notifiche e azioni.
Implicazioni
Questo script per messaggi pop-up migliora la comunicazione e la conformità degli utenti, ma comporta anche la responsabilità di un uso appropriato. Un uso eccessivo o scorretto potrebbe portare gli utenti a stancarsi delle notifiche, riducendo l’efficacia degli avvisi importanti.
Raccomandazioni
- Esegui dei test accurati: Prima della distribuzione diffusa, testa lo script per messaggi pop-up in un ambiente controllato.
- Istruzione dell’utente: Informa gli utenti su queste notifiche e sulla loro importanza.
- Aggiornamento e manutenzione: Aggiorna regolarmente lo script per messaggi pop-up e garantisci la compatibilità con le nuove versioni di Windows.
Considerazioni finali
Nel contesto degli MSP e dei reparti IT, strumenti come NinjaOne possono trarre grandi vantaggi dall’integrazione di tali script PowerShell. Semplifica i processi, garantendo una comunicazione efficiente ed efficace con gli utenti, un pilastro nella moderna gestione dell’infrastruttura IT. Questo script per messaggi pop-up di PowerShell rappresenta una fase di transizione verso sistemi IT più interattivi e reattivi, che migliorano la produttività complessiva e la conformità.
