We recently updated our Terminal Servers from Server 2008 to Server 2008 R2. Now, when our users log on, the "Libraries" folder opens automatically, and users have to close it manually. I'm getting a lot of complaints, is there a way to stop this from happening? I've searched on Google but haven't been able to find an answer.
All help is greatly appreciated!
I cannot register a new software on my windows 2003 server.
Apparently the new server requires the uuid. For some reason It cannot get the uuid. I issue the following comand : wmic csproduct get uuid and instead I get phase error -3 compiler returned error 0x80041002. I suspect the problem happen anfter a server regular windows update.
Any help/idea/suggestion will be appreciated.

Hi,
I have several Hyper-V Window 2008 R2 VMs which boot into System Recovery once after I apply OS updates. When I cancel out of SR the VM loads properly. What might be causing this? How do I fit it?
FYI, in between updates, a reboot of these VMs goes fine.
Thanks,

Ensure that the counters are not disabled in the registry
The counters may be disabled via registry settings. Please check the following registry locations to ensure that the counters have not been disabled.
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\%servicename%\Performance
%servicename% represents any service with a performance counter. For example: PerfDisk, PerfOS, etc.
There may be registry keys for "DisablePerformanceCounters" in any of these locations. As per the following TechNet article, this value should be set to 0. If the value is anything other than 0 the counter may be disabled.
Disable Performance Counters
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc784382.aspx
A value of 1 means the counter is disabled.
A value of 2 means the 32-bit counter is disabled.
A value of 4 measn the 64-bit counter is disabled.
Rebuilding all performance counters including extensible and third-party counters
To rebuild all Performance counters including extensible and third-party counters, type the following commands at an Administrative command prompt. Press ENTER after each command.
Rebuilding the counters:
cd c:\windows\system32
lodctr /R
cd c:\windows\sysWOW64
lodctr /RResyncing the counters with Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI):
WINMGMT.EXE /RESYNCPERF
Stop and restart the Performance Logs and Alerts service.
Stop and restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
Create a new Data Collector Set (do not use an existing Data Collector Set).
There are a few other things I have done but these errors persist. Let me know what other steps I can take. Thank you for your time.

Hi,
I have a domain controller (WS 2012 standard) being backed up in another computer. I would like to have another spare server for fault tolerance in case this one fails.
How can I configure another machine with WS 2012 to do redundancy?
How can I accomplish this?
Your help will be really appreciated.

I have an internal cert on an IIS web server expired. How do I renew it from the internal CA? I tried going to
MMC, certificates, personal store and clicked on the cert and go to advnce operations to renew the cert using same key
but it shows this. any idea on what to do?
We have found a security hole on our servers that allows any NT Authenticated user to read and create files on our server shares. We always thought that setting Everyone to full on share permissions was advisable as we thought our shares were locked down via NTFS permissions, but unfortunately it's not the case. These are the default permissions added to a new partition on our servers -
When the server is added to our domain, the local Users group gets all domain users as members which gives any user the rights to the drive.
I've started manually removing the Users group from the drives when they're created, but is there a way to remove them from the default during partition creation so I don't have to worry about every additional partition I create? Thx!
Next year we're upgrading our SQL server since its base OS is Windows Server 2003.
We have software that accesses the SQL server using 1 main login but there are 40 users that run this application simultaneously. There are a few file shares on this server as well for output files run by the application. If I understand it correctly, we would need:
40 User CALs for Windows Server 2012
40 SQL CALs for the SQL server access
Is this correct? I've heard User CALs only apply for Terminal Services, which isn't true in this case. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I just came across a 2-node clustered fileserver at work, and found something interesting. One of the nodes is having huge perfomance isses, both CPU and RAM, and I managed to drill down to the problem, which is caching of the MFT.
The server is Win2008 R2 64bit, With 12 GB of RAM, and after running ramMAP, it shows that the Metafile is using 11.2 GB out of 12 in total. I suspect it could be related to the backup Application on the server (NetBackup).
What really makes me interested, is why the MFT filesize for a disk is over 31 GB in size (checked with NTFSInfo).
The disk I am talking about, is 2 TB in size, where around 1 TB is in use. And romaing profiles are stored here. Total number of files are around 1.3 million ( 1 300 000). After reading some information about MFT, I still cannot understand why the MFT is so
big in size.
Hello,
I've got a BSOD on a Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1 installed. Analyzed the dump and could
see a Bug-check of 0x1a which means "MEMORY_MANAGEMENT".
Further analysis on this dump shows me, that this probably is caused by the CLFS.sys, which
is the Common Log File System Driver. This CLFS.sys is installed with date:
Tue Jul 14 01:19:57 2009
I have now searched trough MS Support pages and resources and also the Internet, but I found no
information about an update for this or a newer version. It's nearby impossible to find newer versions
for specific files in i.e. Hot-fixes.
Do you know this issue with the 0x1a BSOD and CLFS.sys and/or do you know a newer version ?
Any help would be very appreciated!
Thanks and regards plus have a nice day !

I have searched throughout this site and still not found an answer to how to miminse the size of the winsxs folder.
regardless of if the files are actually there or hardlinks or etc, the fact is that somefiles somehwere on the drive are using all the free space and windows reports that it is taking up 18GB on a 30Gb drive. and we are constantly running out of free space and exchange stops working. This server is not used for anything but exchange and the logs and data are on other drives.
Now please direct me to a fix for this issue as the OS should not be consuming this much free space.
I am starting here.
Win8.1 pro client. It is a domain client and fully goes through logon validation.
Server 2012R2 AD
On Domain client PC, active network panel responds as Private Network, FQDN mydomain.local (Unauthenticated)
I can access all server resources and get to the internet on the domain client PC.
Why Unauthenticated?
