How can I remove the Out of Box Magic profile from fusion? Is there a way to remove the Zebra Enterprise Out of Box Magic Profile?
Answer
Out of Box Magic Default WLAN profile can be removed programmatically through the registry.
Use a tool that allows access to the registry from your PC (Pocket Controller is one) .
- Look at the HKLM\Software\Symbol Technologies, Inc.\Profiles on a default device (fresh out of the box, in CE a unit that's been cold-booted or a clean-booted Windows Mobile device) .
- The profiles are stored by GUI, so they will look something like {123456-xxx-xx-x-x-x}.
- Create a reg file containing the text below
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symbol Technologies, Inc.\Profiles\{xxxx-xx-xx-xx-xx-x}]
Notice the minus sign in the front - that will delete a key
- Edit the reg file so that it contains the ID of that profile.
So instead of this:
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symbol Technologies, Inc.\Profiles\{xxxx-xx-xx-xx-xx-x}]
It will look something like this:
[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symbol Technologies, Inc.\Profiles\{C7EFE7B0-9968-E772-8017-945C397BE256}]
To Merge Reg File
- Place the reg key in the Application Folder
- Click on it to activate immediately (warm boot after).
MULTIPLE DEVICES
- You must first check the registry to see the full profile key on a given new device (fresh out of the box, in CE a unit that's been cold-booted or a clean-booted Windows Mobile device) as the value is unique to certain fusion versions.
b. - WM 6.5 was inspected on the MC9190 and the profile key was observed to be the same on 2 devices, even after a Fusion upgrade to 3.00.2.0.025.
- If common, than a single key can be pushed to each device.
- If unique, a unique removal key will need to be pushed to each individual device.
