Running script (.cmd) or exe under user context using DSC

DSC
1

Hello,

We are trying to install Windows 10 ADK under user context. We performed following steps:

  1. Created self signed certificate for Target Node and Authoring Node on Target Node(referred https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/dsc/secureMOF)

  2. Ran following script to install ADK, but ADK keeps on installing under system context when checked in task manager on target node.
    I checked the mof file created and it shows credential=NULL.
    Please guide of we are missing on anything.

Configuration MyConfiguration
{
param(
[Parameter(Mandatory)]
[PSCredential]$MyCredential
)

Import-DscResource -ModuleName PSDesiredStateConfiguration 

Node $AllNodes.NodeName
{
    Script ADK10
    {
        SetScript = {& \\UNCPATH\ADK10.cmd}
        TestScript = {$False}
        GetScript = {# Do Nothing}
        }
        Credential = $credential
    }
    LocalConfigurationManager
    {
    CertificateID = '3F6609C3FB9E8BC141F04C9EB07186E346DD64AA'
    } 
}

}
$cd = @{
AllNodes = @(
@{
NodeName = “TargetServerName”
PSDscAllowDomainUser = $true
CertificateFile = ‘Path to public key certificate’
Thumbprint = ‘3F6609C3FB9E8BC141F04C9EB07186E346DD64AA’
}
)
}
MyConfiguration -ConfigurationData $Cd -OutputPath “\UNCPath\Test3”
Set-DscLocalConfigurationManager -Path “\UNCPath\Test3” -Force -Verbose
Start-DscConfiguration -Path “\UNCPath\Test3” -Wait -Verbose -force

Again, this is really an ADK thing, not PowerShell - it’s something you might need to take up with Microsoft Product Support.
