Jason Sandys

Jason Sandys is an independent developer recognized in the Windows deployment and systems-management community for creating lightweight, scriptable utilities that streamline large-scale endpoint configuration. His best-known offering, UI++, is a dynamic user-interface generator that lets IT administrators build interactive, wizard-style prompts without compiling code. Typical use cases include pre-flight hardware checks during operating-system deployment, gathering user preferences before application installation, presenting conditional disclaimers on shared kiosks, and injecting task-sequence variables into Microsoft Endpoint Manager or MDT workflows. Because the tool is driven by a single human-readable XML file, teams can revision-control the entire interview experience alongside their deployment scripts, swap languages on the fly, or re-skin branding in minutes. Variables collected at run time can be passed directly to PowerShell, batch files, or task-sequence steps, eliminating the need for separate data-collection scripts and reducing help-desk tickets born from misconfigured systems. Support for common controls such as drop-downs, radio buttons, file pickers, and password boxes, together with built-in validation logic, allows even complex compliance questions to be condensed into a few intuitive screens. The compact, standalone executable requires no installation, so it can be delivered from a network share, USB media, or cloud storage without leaving remnants on the target device. Jason Sandys’ software is available free of charge on get.nero.com, where downloads are pulled from trusted Windows package sources like winget, always install the latest release, and can be queued for batch installation alongside other applications.
