This repository contains the source code for the Windows kaleidoscope project.
According to Wikipedia, kaleidoscope is an optical instrument with two or more reflecting surfaces (or mirrors) tilted to each other at an angle, so that one or more (parts of) objects on one end of these mirrors are shown as a regular symmetrical pattern when viewed from the other end, due to repeated reflection
A kaleidoscope is used for observation of beautiful forms.
The Windows kaleidoscope project is exactly that, an optical instrument, to shown device insights as a regular symmetrical pattern adding beautiful forms.
This repository is under development and alive and for the most, kicking - I welcome any feedback or suggestions for improvement. Reach out on Twitter, I read Direct Messages (DMs) and allow them from people I do not follow. For other means of contact, please visit https://dotjesper.com/contact/
Do not hesitate to reach out if issues arise or new functionality and improvement comes to mind.
Feel free to fork and build.
This is a personal development, please respect the community sharing philosophy and be nice!
The goal of Windows kaleidoscope is primarily to host, and share, detection and remediation scripts, used for Endpoint Analytics | Proactive Remediation. Furthermore, this repository contains scripts used to extract Endpoint Analytics information.
Windows kaleidoscope scripts can easily be implemented using more traditionally deployment methods, e.g., Operating System Deployment Task Sequence deployment or similar methods utilized.
Endpoint analytics is part of the Microsoft Productivity Score. These analytics give you insights for measuring how your organization is working and the quality of the experience you're delivering to your users. Endpoint analytics can help identify policies or hardware issues that may be slowing down devices and help you proactively make improvements before end-users generate a help desk ticket.
Endpoint analytics aims to improve user productivity and reduce IT support costs by providing insights into the user experience. The insights enable IT to optimize the end-user experience with proactive support and to detect regressions to the user experience by assessing user impact of configuration changes.
Devices must be Azure AD joined or hybrid Azure AD joined and enrolled in Microsoft Intune.
Whether enrolling devices via Microsoft Intune or Configuration Manager, Proactive remediation scripting has the following requirements:
- Is managed by Intune and runs an Enterprise, Professional, or Education edition of Windows 10 or later.
- A co-managed device running Windows 10, version 1903 or later. Co-managed devices on preceding versions of Windows 10 will need the Client apps workload pointed to Intune (only applicable up to version 1607).
Devices enrolled in Endpoint analytics need a valid license for the use of Microsoft Endpoint Manager. For more information, see Microsoft Intune licensing or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager licensing.
Proactive remediations also requires users of the devices to have one of the following licenses:
- Windows 10/11 Enterprise E3 or E5 (included in Microsoft 365 F3, E3, or E5)
- Windows 10/11 Education A3 or A5 (included in Microsoft 365 A3 or A5)
- Windows 10/11 Virtual Desktop Access (VDA) per user

Windows kaleidoscope is developed and tested for Windows 10 21H1 Pro and Enterprise 64-bit and newer and require PowerShell 5.1.
