## Brief Overview ## How to use
1st Line Helpdesk Technician friendly Batch Script to automatically download RAMMap and create a scheduled task which runs it every half an hour as SYSTEM Simply download the [.bat file](https://git.tobiastime.xyz/Tobias/automated_rammap.bat/src/branch/main/automated_rammap.bat) and right click "run as admin"
Simply right click the .bat file, run as admin and the entire deployment will be automated This automatically handles downloading RAMMap, running it after its download, and creating a scheduled task to run it in the background every half an hour indefinitely

Windows 11 is awful, bloated and absolutely terrible, (like the Windows before it but worse), something I have to be paid to use ## Overview
Helpdesk technicians get "slow PC" tickets daily, wherein one of their resolution steps is manually logging onto the device with 8GB RAM and running RAMMap Winblows 11 is awful, bloated and absolutely terrible, (like the Windows before it but worse). It is something I have to be paid to use and is filled with countless memory leak errors.
Consequently, Helpdesk technicians get "slow PC" tickets daily, wherein one of their resolution steps is manually logging onto the device with 8GB RAM and running RAMMap
Inevitably the device will slow down once more, after which another "slow PC" ticket will be raised by the user, and another technician will log on and spend their time performing the same manual remediation steps Inevitably the device will slow down once more, after which another "slow PC" ticket will be raised by the user, and another technician will log on and spend their time performing the same manual remediation steps
This script is aimed to reduce that manual work and be deployment friendly, simply right click to run as admin and the entire download and installation will be automated This script is aimed to reduce that manual work and be deployment friendly, simply right click to run as admin and the entire download and installation will be automated
Having the script run as SYSTEM avoids the need to create another user with local admin permissions, harnessing an already built-in identity Having the script run as SYSTEM avoids the need to create another user with local admin permissions, harnessing a global built-in identity
This methodology is used as RAMMap requires elevated permissions, which end-users are typically not granted This methodology is used since RAMMap requires elevated permissions, which end-users are typically not granted
Additionally it avoids assuming an admin's username, as these will vary heavily between customers in an MSP environment
