Every IT administrator would have to run through a handful of administrative tasks, which are repetitive. Many of those tasks needs to be performed every single day or at regular intervals. Endpoint Central provides you with pre-defined configurations, which help you to perform these tasks. When the tasks are not straight forward, or unique, then you will have to use custom scripts to execute them. Scripts can be in form of a batch file, a command file, or a windows script host file. Endpoint Central supports deploying scripts to computers running Windows and Mac operating system. The following script formats supported by Endpoint Central: .vbs, .js, .php, ReXX, .bat, .cmd, .msi, . jse, .exe, .vbe, .wsf, .wsc, .wsh, .reg, .sh, .scpt, .pl and .py
