If you try to change a configuration setting in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations in a virtual machine, you first need to switch to maintenance mode. And to be able to change a value, or to quickly disable the maintenance mode again I want to have a batch. Use the following batch script at your own risk, please adjust the settings to match your environment.

@ECHO OFF
