Automatic update of RemoteApp and Desktop Connections does not work (while manual updates with "update now" is working)

Hello,
on several Windows 7 Clients the update/refresh of the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections stopped not working automatically. There is a Update failed error. When we do an "Update Now" manually, it gets synchronized without problems.
I am asking me if there is an issue with a stored Password as we Need to Change the Passwords regularily. The error is occuring for Connections to all RDS Servers (we have severals).
Does Windows store the user Password in the Task Scheduler? If yes, does the schedule Task Password Change automatically after the Domain Password Change?
Or what else could be the issue? The RDS Server and the certificate (Name the same as the URL) seems to be fine as not all Clients have this issue.
Thank you for your help

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
By default it will automatically update the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections but if in any particular case it’s not happening then for a try you can restart the server and check the result again. In addition you can try running below command and check
the result.
Start-Process rundll32 -ArgumentList "tsworkspace,TaskUpdateWorkspaces2
More information:
Powershell to update "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections"
If a task is registered using the Administrators group for the security context of the task, then you must also make sure the Run with highest privileges check box is checked if you want to run the task. Please check “Task
Security Context” for more details.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

RemoteApp and Desktop Connections update problem 0x8007052e

Hello,
In our company environment we are using Windows 2012 R2 based RDS farm deployment with 2 HA connection brokers(these 2 servers are also have Web access role installed). All client PC's have Windows 8 OS installed. We publishing remote application programs
for our users via RemoteApp and Desktop Connection. Everything works fine except on thing that time to time RemoteApp and Desktop Connection are not updating and shows this error:
Then we clicking "update now" system asking to enter credentials. After the entering domain username and password everything is updating. After this procedure updating works fine 2-4 weeks and then start failing again. Our users required
to change password every 3 months. That means password changing can't be the reason of this error.
Maybe it can be related with server rebooting? All RDS farm machines reboots once per month during the server patching
Thanks for help in advance.

Hi,
Based from the description of the issue, it is a suitable explanation that server reboot clears cached credentials for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection.

Amy

RemoteApp and Desktop Connections Error 0x800401F0 when updating RemoteApp connections from RDS webfeed

Environment:
Windows Server 2012 R2 with RDS roles installed.
Windows 8 clients
Issue:
The RDS Webfeed doesn't updated automatically. Instead, I get an error:
"An error occurred while updating this connection. Error code: 0x800401f0, 0x0"
I can perform a manual update in the control panel, but the users who will be using this on a regular basis are blocked from the control panel by a GPO. Also, I don't want end users to have to perform this update manually anyway.
I've included a screenshot of the issue for reference.

MS Support has provided no more than the following replies to us for this case so far:
Based on your description, I suppose that the issue you are experiencing is:
The connection updates manually just fine, but it fails in nightly auto-updates. And setting up the connection does prompt for credentials
the first time after updating KB2857650, and it didn't before.
Based on my experience, this may be a known issue of KB2857650. I am trying my best to contact production team to confirm this information.
Currently, we recommended the following action plan on Windows 7 clients.
=======================================================================================================================================
Please uninstall hotfix of KB2857650 on all Windows 7 clients.
Note: we need to restart the clients after uninstalling the hotfix.
Then please click
Start, click
All Program, click
Accessories, and then click
Task Scheduler.
Open
Task Scheduler Library under Task Scheduler (local), and then browse to the following location:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Microsoft\Windows\RemoteApp and Desktop
Connections Update\
Open the subfolder that represents your user name.
Delete the following tasks:
Update connections
Report update status
Start Workspace Runtime at logon
Note
To delete a task, right-click the task, and then click
Delete.
After that, please recreate the connection.
Please test how the issue goes and let me know the results.
After you performed the steps above, if this issue persists, would you please collect the following information so that we can narrow down this issue?
And Later after I confirmed that I agree the issue seems to be a problem with
KB2857650 and then asking if a hotfix would be made available:
Thanks very much for you reply.
I totally understood how you feel about this. I am trying my best to contact production team to release new update to fix this issue. I will keep you updated about it. Since
we need to do a lot of tests about this issue to provide stable hotfix with our customers, it may be time-consuming to release the hotfix for this issue. Thanks for your understanding in advance.

TS Workspace/RemoteApp and Desktop Connections not updating after update(KB2830477 and KB2857650)

Hi,
we are using the "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections" to Access our RDP-Infrastructure with Windows 7 Clients. We have a Windows Server 2012 with RD Web Access Role installed and i changed the authentication Settings on the RDWeb page to use Windows
Authentication so that we don't get any extra Password prompt.
Prior Update KB2830477 and KB2857650 the feed was downloaded/updated via
https://rdweb.domain.com/rdweb/feed/webfeed.aspx without any Problem. If i check the Wireshark logs i see two http get requests without credentials (401 Unauthorized) and the third with a valid Kerberos Ticket which passes through. The tsworkspace.dll
Version is 6.1.7601.17514 and the update Command is "%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\RUNDLL32 tsworkspace,TaskUpdateWorkspaces"
After i installed the updates mentioned above tsworkspace.dll has Version 6.1.7601.18270 and the automatic update doesn't work anymore. If i try a Manual update via the gui i get two 401 Unauthorized in Wireshark and after that a Password prompt.
If i type in my credentials it is working fine, but the automatic one doesn't ask for credentials.
Is there any way i can fix this?
Thanks in advance

Powershell to update "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections"

Is there a way to trigger this with powershell instead of manually going into "RemoteApp and Desktop Connections" clicking on "View details" then clicking "Update now"?
I know it happens every so often but i want to trigger it manually with a powershell script.

RemoteApp and Desktop Connections update returns Error code: 0x80070003

I had RemoteApp and Desktop Connections working in Windows 7, but it recently started returning the following event log error.
An error occurred. Contact your workplace administrator for assistance.
Connection name: My Apps
Connection URL: https://<externalfqdn>/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx
Error code: 0x80070003, 0x0
How do I troubleshoot this? When I enter
https://<externalfqdn>/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx, I am prompted for a user name and password. When I enter the user name and password, a string of characters is returned. Is there a way to decode these characters? The only unusual
element of my install is that the <externalfqdn> is different than the windows FQDN. Both point to the same IP address. I'm not seeing any event log errors on the server. If I delete the existing RemoteApp connection, recreation of
the connection fails and no event is logged on the server OR the client.

@Raymond Thanks for your reply! I made the configuration changes you suggested and attempted to logged 3 different activities.
1. On a client, enter

RemoteApp and Desktop Connection - Default Connection URL - Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi,
I'm building an Remote Desktop envoirement for our organisation wich includes the following servers:
2 Domain controllers with Remote Desktop Gateway, Licensing and Broker (1 broker functional, no HA, still in progress of building), RDWeb installed.
2 Remote Desktop Host Servers for the user logins (no applications just the desktop).
2 Remote Desktop Application Servers (RemoteApp) with all of our applications installed.
2 File Servers using DFS replication.
All of those servers are Windows 2012 r2.
Our purpose is to deploy RemoteApp's to the Remote Desktop Host servers using the GPO Default Connection URL.
The problem is that it won't apply to the users who log on to the Remote Desktop Host servers. I'm struggling with this issue for a while now and tried different possible solutions. Such as the delegation credential GPO, making the users local admin, making
the users domain admin etc etc.
My guess is that the GPO hangs on the fact that when i try to manually run the wizard to connect to the RemoteApp and Desktop connections, my credentials are asked. Which i think is odd because i'm already logged in as an domain user. I'm having the exact same
problem with the domain administrator account.
When i'm connecting manually by entering the credentials in the connection wizard everything is working as it should, it just won't connect automatically
Does someone has an solution for this?
Kind Regards,
Geoffrey van Meurs

so am I correct to assume that your issue is really with RemoteApps single sign-on (SSO)?
You have users which RDP to RDSH and again you're attempting to publish RemoteApps in that same environment?
I haven't done SSO but there is a lot of info about it on the web:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/ed4447b5-2958-404b-883c-9aefa038ad61/single-sign-on-remoteapp-and-desktop-connection?forum=winserverTS
Secondly, you may need to look at your GPO loopback settings to ensure the policies are being properly applied. Use RSOP as well. Try using a local GPO to see if it makes a difference with a non-admin test user. Check event logs for GPO
processing errors/conflicts. Use gpresults, etc.
Something else worth noting here is that RemoteApp publishing is really not meant to be done inside RDSH, it's usually done on the user's workstation, therefore eliminating the need for them to even login to RDSH, reducing the number of hops and complexity.
For what you're doing, you're better off using RDWeb to publish the applications to them or using the old school method of just having app. shortcuts on the Desktop/Start menu in RDSH since they're already getting a published desktop anyway. Or just
use RemoteApps on their workstations via GPO. Just some thought if I'm understanding your goals here, but it sounds like you would need to read up on RemoteApp SSO.

RemoteApp and Desktop Connection "Reconnect to RD WebAccess" errors

I have a Server 2008R2 with RDS setup on our network for 7 users. We have a seperate RDSH server holding the RemoteApp programs. The users all have Windows 7 x64 bit computers and they VPN into our internal network from home and once they are in, they can access
the RemoteApps via the webfeed. All applications show up correctly and display properly when clicking on them in the Start Menu and under RemoteApp and Desktop Connections menu. If I however go to my system tray and right click on the rdp icon and select the
"reconnect to remote desktop web access" I get 4 errors and it doesn't connect. Here are the errors I receive:
There was an error communicating with the endpoint at 'https://servername/RDWeb/Feed/RDWebservice.asmx' The server returned HTTP Status code 404 (0x194) with text 'Not found'. The requested resource was not found.
There was an error communicating with the endpoint at 'https://servername/RDWeb/Feed/RDWebService.asmx'.
There were connectivity issues with the web service. Report this error to your Administrator.
The webfeed address I setup on the 7 client computers is https://servername/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx.
Why is it not letting us reconnect that way but letting us connect if going through the start menu and/or opening the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections---> View Resources---> Double clicking on the .rdp file?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The "Reconnect to Remote Desktop Web Access" requires a Windows Server 2012 RD Web Access server, it is not supported by Windows Server 2008 R2 RD Web Access. Unfortunately there is a known bug in our client where it still shows the option to reconnect
in the taskbar icon even if the server does not support it.
Hope that helps,

Silent Deployment for RemoteApp and Desktop Connections 2012r2 / Windows 7

Have created a 2012r2 RDS Farm, have Silent deployment working for windows 8 clients, however, cannot seem to get it to function correctly for windows 7 clients.
have followed multiple directions from url's stating to create the .wcx file and run the technet powershell script...applying it in GPO...to NO AVAIL!!!
Does anyone out there have any solid instructions on how to configure Silent deployment of RemoteApp and Desktop Connections 2012r2 to windows 7 clients.
PLEASE HELP!
thanks,
JT

Hi James,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
The code which is provide from that sites is the one which used for .wcx file. Please check the full steps from below thread where answered by TP and other link for some more useful information.
A. Windows Server 2012 R2 RemoteApp Deployment
B. Deploying RemoteApp From Server 2012 to Windows

Finally if you still have any issue then you can find the Event log under “Applications and Services Logs -> Microsoft -> Windows -> RemoteApp and Desktop Connections” and see whether there is any useful information for this particular issue.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

Remoteapp and Desktop Connections Self signed Cert

I know there are similar post on this subject though I did not find the answer that I was looking for. I am using rdweb services to publish applications over a WAN connection to our remote office as our SQL server applications reside in our main office.
Both offices are on the same domain/network. I do not need rdweb services to be accessed via the internet to outside users so I am relying on the internal cert to make all of this work internally. At this time the rdweb interface works fine but the remote
office would like to utilize the RemoteApp and Desktop connections so they will not have to use the web interface but I get the same error message everyone else has posted about there being a problem with the certificate and I am not able to get any further
in the wizard at this time.
I have created my own self signed certificate via the Remote Desktop GUI, exported the cert and imported to my client PC but still it does not work. I don't have alot of experience with the certs and possibly am doing something wrong so will give the
info to see if someone can help me out.
Server name: TS1
Domain: coa.local
I have created the certificate several times with the following: ts1.coa.local, *.coa.local. Once done I have exported the cert and imported to the Trusted root auth of the local computer. I have then launched the Remoteapp and Desktop wizard and filled
in the field with https://ts1/rdweb which did not work. I tried https://ts1.coa.local/rdweb which also did not work. Am I not filling in the correct syntax or is there something else I might be missing as it stops there and tells me there is a problem with
the websites certificate. I am stumped and hope someone can help me out as I have burned alot of time trying to make this work.
Thank you

Have you made any progress on this problem?

How can I Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection with Server 2012?

I have a working RDS RemoteApp site and looking to test out the feature in Windows 7 Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
I came across this link: Create a Client Configuration File for RemoteApp and Desktop Connection and I believe this is what I need to do first, but these instructions are for
Server 2008, and I'm running 2012.
Any suggestions or tips on how I can begin testing this with Server 2012?

Hi,
You can manually enter the path to the 2012 feed and it will connect and download the RemoteApps and Desktop connections.
If you need a sample .wcx file I have posted one here a couple of times. If you want I will look for it and post a link.
-TP
I tried adding my URL's below, these are sample links that work for me right now for when I log into the web page, but neither of these work. And I'm not sure what I would need to do with or how to create a .wcx file.
When I type in my URL of: https://connect.mydomain.org/RDWeb, I get redirected to:
https://connect.mydomain.org/RDWeb/Pages/en-US/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=/RDWeb/Pages/en-US/Default.aspx

Edit RemoteApp and Desktop Connections

As the title suggests, we want to change/edit the top left text of the RDWeb page:
As you can see, we have changed the upper text (using powershell). I have scoured the internet looking for how to do this to no avail. How can i change the text that says RemoteApp and Desktop Connections?

You can edit this file "C:\Windows\Web\RDWeb\Pages\en-US\Default.aspx" on the RDWeb server. It contains all of the text strings available on the site except for the Work Resources title, that can be changed with PowerShell. If the RDWeb server is in an
NLB cluster, remember it will need to be changed on all the servers in the cluster.

Deploying RemoteApp and Desktop Connections certificate...

     Hello,
   I am currently trying to deploy a certificate for remoteapp and desktop connections and continue to receive a certificate error. We are running a 2012r2 developement RDS Farm. We have one Connection Broker, 2 session hosts, gateway,
web access etc...we have about 15 applications published and the user's can access them via web access, however, when we try and setup (RADC-RemoteApp and Desktop Connections) it errors out due to security issue with the certificate. If we manually install
the cert in the client's Trusted Root Certificate Authority for the local machine, it works flawlessly....however, we do not want to have to install this cert for 500 users +....we would rather deploy through GP.
    We have it narrowed down to the point of the certificate is not being deployed to all of the clients. We have attempted many GPO policy edits that we have found from other technet articles and other websites online...but I cant seem
to find any solid GPO instructions that seem to work for this environment to properly deploy the certificate to all of the clients.
These clients are running windows 7 and windows 8 & 8.1. All the clients that are running windows 7 have RDP 8.0....
Any help would be greatful....thanks in advance.     JCT

Hi,
You need to request the necessary certificates from your CA, export each certificate and its private key to a .pfx file, then use these files for the RDS in Server Manager -- RDS -- Overview -- Tasks -- Deployment Properties -- Certificates.
To do this you can use certlm.msc. For example, start on the broker, open certlm.msc, request a new cert using Computer template, before clicking enroll go into the details and edit the properties of the request so that the private key will be marked
as exportable, then enroll. Once it is done the certificate will be in the Personal store, right-click on it and export it as well as the private key to a .pfx file.
In Server Manager -- RDS -- Overview -- Tasks -- Edit Deployment Properties -- Certificates tab, select RDCB SSO, select existing certificate, choose the .pfx, etc., then click Apply. Select RDCB Publishing, select existing certificate, choose .pfx,
OK, click Apply.
At this point you should be finished with 2 out of the 4 RDS purposes. Log on to the RDWeb server, request the certificate and export it (and its private key) to .pfx file as described above, and copy the file over to the broker. Repeat
the process I described above to assign this certificate to the RDWeb and RDG purposes in deployment properties.
Now you should have all 4 purposes set and showing as trusted in deployment properties. The client PCs should not get any certificate errors since they should trust the certificates issued by your enterprise CA. Additionally the client PCs need
to be able to reach the path defined in CRL Distribution points and AIA on the certificates so that they can do revocation checking.

Thin PC - Remoteapp and Desktop Connections

Hi this is a copy of my post in the Windows 7 misc forum where it's getting no relevant replys.
Has anyone been able to get this working?
All I get is error 1000 which is that the thin pc can not find the rdgateway or app server.
I know that they are both working and accessible from this machine, I can drag an rdp to the desktop and it runs, I can go to the rdweb site and run applications from there.
I have a full windows 7 test bed and running the wcx config file poulates the remote app programs and I can go to the control panel and type in the url and that works.
I have turned off all the firewalls, the thin pc is configured for hyper-v management and just about everything else works.
As this is the pricnipal use of thin pc - a hyper-v client has anyone got any ideas ?

Hi Alan,
Steps taken.
ThinPC is a clean install, everything default except time and country set to UK. Hyper-v configured using the technet script for VDI. Local admin account enabled and joined to domain.
Log in as domain admin, go to control panel, remoteapp and desktop connections.
enter string for remote app feed -

The RD Gateway is responding correctly as I can go to the RDWeb site log in and launch programs, I can copy a created rdp file for an application to the desktop and run that as well.
The webfeed.aspx is working correctly as I can run that on a Win7 full client in both hyper-v and a hardware one and they populate the apps as expected.
