So that the changes take effect
Hey thank you for replying to my question, I definitely appreciate you helping to simplify stuff a bit more so I can understand what it is I'm doing.
And yes I believe you are correct about my computer being in that first category. The full screen pop up is prompting me to Enroll into device remote management or whatever which I haven't done yet thankfully. So that's a plus it sounds like ha.
Also, after I upgraded from Ventura to Sonoma, there was 20 min or so where the MDM full screen pop up allowed me to close it, which didn't last obviously.but I checked the section in settings for any installed profiles but there were none displayed, which I thought was weird. The setting for Remote Management was also turned off too. So I think it possibly is just some file or configuration left on the MacBook that simply prompts the pop up or something. I'm gonna give that skipmdm method a go and I'll report back if I have any success or run into problems. Thanks again for writing it all out for me. I wanted to asked though, reading through the forum and comments a bit more I saw somewhere someone saying that one of the suggested methods was not necessarily a safe method of disabling the pop up cuz it prevents firevault from working and something like the SSC or SVC or something along those lines. Is that relevant to this skipmdm method to your knowledge,? Would it be possible to do the skipmdm code, then after I can access desktop and enter those other commands in terminal, can I then somehow undo the skipmdm code to bring back the firevault or safety stuff or whatever? Thanks again for the help and I apologize for writing a novel here.
Last pic is what it showed when I would terminal command show profiles command in case it helps at all
