I would confirm by reproducing the behavior with psexec –s to emulate the 
SYSTEM account.

Otherwise, doing a runas is either a task sequence or some PowerShell, but 
trying to store credentials in the script is highly not recommended.

You may want to also look into a compliance script, as that would ensure it is 
always set properly.

Subject: [mssms] Netsh running as LocalSystem account

Hi everyone,

I’m encountering something odd and hoped someone else out here has seen the 
issue and know of a workaround. We’re upgrading systems to Windows 8.1 at 
remote sites that only have a Windows 2003 file server they’re connected to. 
Apparently there’s a known issue doing this that causes everything on the 
workstation to just slow to a crawl, with the fix being to disable the 
autotuning level.

I’ve created a blank package in SCCM 2012 R2 with just the program command 
“netsh int tcp global autotuninglevel=disable” in it. After it runs the 
settings are good and performance noticeably better, but after a reboot the 
settings go away and user is back to a crawl. Run the same command from an 
admin account on the system and the settings stick after reboot.

I could just create a task sequence with the command line to run as another 
user, bypassing the LocalSystem account, but was hoping someone out there knew 
of a better option.

Thanks,
Richard Poole
