  • The Group Policy Client service failed the sign-in The universal unique identifier (UUID) type is not supported

    Hi guys,
    we created a custom WIM Image (Windows 8 Enterprise) with MDT 2012.
    Sysprept the Image, Deployed via SCCM 2012 SP1.
    Computers are Domainjoined. Error with standard Domain User.
    On some computers (not every computer) and not with every user on the first logon following error message arises:
    The Group Policy Client service failed the sign-in The universal unique identifier (UUID) type is not supported
    It works, when you log in a second time but this error isn't very nice. 
    Is there a solution for that?
    Kind Regards
    Martin

    Hi,
    The service is responsible for applying settings configured by administrators for the computer and users through the Group Policy component. This issue can be caused by various reasons based on the computer environment.
    Can you find any information in event log about this issue?

  • Deploying Creative Cloud for Teams via Group Policy

    Good afternoon, we are trying to deploy our Creative Cloud for Teams products.  Our ideal situation would be where we are able to deploy the Creative Cloud Software (e.g. including Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, etc) using Group Policy, then assign the respective user licenses using the Management Console.  This would send out the email to the applicable user for them to create and Adobe ID, and use the software that has been installed.  However, we are able to install the software using Group Policy Deployment using the msi created using the Creative Cloud Packager, but any user is able to use the software on the PC, not just the person who has been assigned the licence via the console email.  Is anyone else successfully deploying in this way?
    Kind regards

  • Outlook 2013 - wrap text group policy applied, not working with or without digital signature

    Hello,
    I'm adding group policies to apply on our new installations of Windows 8.1 with Office 2013. One of the settings being applied is enforcing plain text emails and wrapping text at a certain number of characters. Policies are being added using the Outlook
    2013 admx.
    When I check the options inside Outlook 2013 the group policy did apply successfully (File, Options, Mail, scroll down to Message Format) The option to "Automatically wrap text at character:" is set to 132 and not adjustable as it should be.
    In the group policy I have it set to wrap at 132 characters, but when I go to a client machine and send a digitally signed email, it wraps at the default 76 characters. This makes for very annoying short blocky emails and multi-line hyperlinks.
    If I do not digitally sign the email then the text doesn't wrap at all! (until it meets the end of the window). So under no circumstances is it wrapping at 132 where it's supposed to.
    Thanks,
    -Nick 

    Hi,
    What is your account type in Outlook? Exchange or others?
    Please also let me know the email format that you are sending, Plain Text, HTML or Rich Text Format.
    You can try sending the same emails in Outlook Safe Mode:
    Press Win + R and type “outlook.exe /safe” in the blank box, then press Enter.
    If there’s no problem in Safe Mode, disable the suspicious add-ins to verify which add-ins caused this issue.

  • Issue with GPO "WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization"

    When I started my migration of SBS2011 to  2012r2 with essentials service I noticed this GPO appear which I assume is for passwords to be synced to the cloud however when I implemented group policy from essentials the dashboard crashed and the typical
    GPO's that it creates weren't there and only the folder-redirection was present it was also blank so I deleted it (I didnt delete the GPO "WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization" )
    I then re-launched the dashboard and ran through the process again, it worked what a treat! except the GPO for "WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization"
    appears to be blank, I remember it pointing to a ps file but I dont know what ps file and how to recreate it, along with to confirm what it does. Sadly I have no GPO backup to go back to.
    any help on this would be much appreciated 
    Cheers 

    Hi,
    à
    however when I implemented group policy from essentials the dashboard crashed
    Based on your description, I understand that Dashboard crashed when implemented group policies (some WSE Group
    Policy).
    àthe typical
    GPO's that it creates weren't there and only the folder-redirection was present it was also blank so I deleted it (I didnt delete the GPO "WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization")
    Did you mean that deleted the ‘WSE Group Policy Folder Redirection’? Would you please let me know whether do
    any operation for the ‘WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization’? Meanwhile, please check if other WSE Group Policy also was
    No Settings defined in Settings tab (as your ‘WSE Group Policy Password Synchronization’ picture showed).
    àSadly I have
    no GPO backup to go back to.
    Please start a BPA scan and check if find relevant issue. If no GPO backup, it seems that not be able to help
    us to restore group policy objects. By the way, did you have a Full server backup?
    If anything I misunderstand or any update, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I setup Active Directory and Group Policy on Windows Server 2012?

    I work for a school district that uses a Windows 2012 server with about 400 Windows 7 PCs and 150 Mac PCs. We are set up with Roaming Profiles on the PCs and would like to be able to setup Active Directory, Group Policy, and Roaming Profiles on our macs. (We also have a mac server that they are using as a file server only) As we are a school, our funds are very low. Now for the questions...
    Is there a software that allow us to accomplish this?
    Is there a free solution or a very reduced price option to do this?
    I heard that http://www.centrify.com/products/mac-edition.asp may accomplish this and I read something about it on here but didn't know if this is what I was really trying to do becuase it was marked as "The Golden Triangle" and did not mention Raoming Profiles. This is the link though: https://discussions.apple.com/message/17200059#17200059
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    The above reply does not take into account that I am trying to use GROUP POLICY EDITOR to make it the default browser.

  • Group Policy Guru? Group Policy and Windows 7 erratic and inconsistant.

    (*If you don't feel like reading everything, skip to the bottom two paragraphs for my questions)
    I've had a premier call open with MS since August. This week I had a Microsoft Technician in-house.  Though we eliminated some possibilities, we're not really closer to a cause or solution.
    Every time we work with an expert, I get a different explanation to describe the situation we are viewing.
    Quick summery of the issue:  We've been using Group Policy to manage most Windows XP and 7 settings for years, but starting the middle of last year, we began having clients with machines where some or all group policies would fail to apply. 
    These could be long assigned policies, new polices, or changes to policies.  It would never affect everyone or even a majority at once, and the resolution is never the same.  Sometimes a GPUDPATE /FORCE sometimes fixed automajically the next day,
    sometimes (but very rarely) longer.
    Troubleshooting History:
    What we found in early troubleshooting, that these machines, had errors in Event Viewer for Netlogon, Time-Sync, and Group Policy.  The other issue we noticed, was that our GPRESULT /H reports were missing security groups and the denied section was
    nothing but SSID's.  The first issue pointed me to:
    Event ID 5719 and event ID 1129 may be logged when a non-Microsoft DHCP Relay Agent is used
    I installed these Hot Fixes.  No change to any of the errors in event viewer, or to our Group Policy problems.
    Initial work with Premier Support found that Netlogon, Time-Sync, and Group Policy, were failing before loading of the network stack.  The suggestion was to apply the group policy setting "Always wait for the network at computer startup and
    logon".  At the time, this seemed not to work.  The policy was set on a test bed of laptops and desktops, and no changes in behavior were seen after 3 days.
    Windows 7 Clients intermittently fail to apply group policy at startup
    For some time after this, we were collecting GPSVC and NetTrace logs for Premeir Support, trying to document and troubleshoot the problem.  Eventually we got fed up and asked our TAM to call in a pro to get this resolved.  We were sent an engineer
    for 3 days.  For three days we banged away on this issue.  We verified AD and replication health, we tried numerous fixes and workarounds.  I learned 3 different desriptions of how Group Policy works, and in the end we thought we had a workaround
    using the "Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" because of a single success late in the day.  On day 3 we tried replicating this fix, and quickly realized that the same issue we were having preventing other GPOs to apply,
    were also preventing our "fix" GPO from applying.  So we went the route of using a registry entry.  I also had a problem that even though it was making the process more consistant, it was still taking 3 reboots for a Computer Policy, assigned
    to a computer object via Security Group, to fully take affect on a computer.
    I used the registry methods in the above article.  It didn't work, no sign it was having the same affect the GPO had had.
    Our support engineer claimed this was the proper method, but that path wasn't even close in a Windows 7 SP1 registry, and after creating all the keys that were not present, it still didn't work.
    Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon - AzureWeb
    We ran out of time, our engineer returned home.
    I can understand how these errors indicate a problem applying Group Policy at boot.  But to me it doesn't explain why it doesn't correct post boot, and after a GPUDPATE /FORCE and a reboot.
    It also doesn't explain why we were working fine for years, then all of a sudden DHCP is being outrun by background services.  (By the way logging showed DHCP wasn't significantly delayed, out boot process was actually excellent, health wise.) 
    Why all of a sudden is this not behaving optimly?  No changes to network design or function.  No changes to the domain since 2008 R2 was installed in 2011.
    Today I'm reading through all these KB's and articles again, and took some time to read:
    [Forum FAQ] Common steps to start troubleshooting Group Policy
    application and it's links below.
    We ran though all of that before and during the 3-day onsite.  It's not getting us any closer to the cause or a solution.
    I found and begin some deep reading in this link today.  It has some additional information I will try to use next week:
    Group Policy Basics - Part 3: How Clients Process GPOs
    The one unanswered question I have is this.  How is group policy supposed to apply to a computer, when that policy is applied to a AD Security Group, in which the computer object is a member?
    Before we began having this problem, we would assign a computer GPO, then ask the user to reboot.  If it were a user GPO, we'd ask the user to log off, or reboot.  Either way, if we allowed a few minutes for AD and FRS replication, the user would
    log back in with that new policy in affect.  A new imaged machine would boot with all the GPO's linked to that domain and assigned to "Authenticated Users", already in affect.  Admin groups would be present in administrators, proxy settings
    would be set in Internet Explorer, etc.
    Now I'm aked to beleive this was never the case from Premeier Support and Microsoft Engineers.  That those policies require the equilent of a "GPUPDATE /FORCE" that was executed by the Local_System account.  That 3 reboots may
    be nessessary for a group policy to be applied.  One for the AD Security Group to be applied.  One for the Computer Policy to be applied.  And a final one for the policy in the GPO to be applied to Windows.
    Can someone confirm or correct this information please?  It's imperitive to my troubleshootng.
    There's no place like 127.0.0.1

    That key is empty on all of my machines I have checked today.  Working and problematic alike.
    GPRESULT logs, when ran as me, historically would show the group polices applied, denied, and the AD group membership all by name.  About 6 months ago I noticed this changed.
    Now they show the applied GPO's by name, a few of the denied GPO's by name, most by SID, and only 2 to 3 AD groups, though PowerShell shows all the AD groups assigned.  This happens after several AD security and distribution groups are added to the
    machine (Radia software distribution uses Dist groups to assign software).
    A check showed no groups with long legacy Kerberos keys.
    When we make a change to AD Security Group membership, to assign or deny a Group Policy, is usually when we encounter this problem.  It will usually fix itself in 24 hours of the machine being left up and running.  But no amount of GPUPDATE /FORCE
    and rebooting will cause the changes to take affect.
    During this time, the Group Policies will show assigned to the computer in the GPRESULT log.
    Yesterday I began looking into Spanning Tree configuration on our network being a possible cause for the boot up issues.  I'm waiting on responses from our Network group to confirm our configuration.
    There's no place like 127.0.0.1

  • Drive restriction group policy causes error message when accessing Open and Save As Dialog Boxes on Windows 8.1

    We are running Windows 8.1 Pro x86
    I am really curious as to why the drive restriction group policy causes the error message to pop up:
    "This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator."
    It does not prevent from actual saving so functionality is not lost but it really annoys our end users and we're getting a lot of complaints. We cannot use the workaround of hiding drives instead of restricting as this still presents security issues. This
    is happens when saving (or clicking on a button like "Browse" that opens the 'Open' dialogue box) in all Office 2013 applications, Internet Explorer, Paint, Notepad, and probably most others. I've looked at many forums and no suggestions for workarounds
    have succeeded for us to get rid of this error message and in fact, I read a post that stated that someone contacted Microsoft and they said this was by design and there is no workaround. I find this very unfortunate that we either have the choice of compromising
    security or annoying our end users. It seems to me like the new dialogue box in Windows 8.1 (and maybe 8?) attempts to access the local drive under the logged in user's account before it actually opens up the dialogue box which conflicts with the group policy
    that restricts access to the drive.
    Has anyone at all had any luck getting this to go away without removing the restrictions? It seems like the answer is either buried in the Windows code or somewhere in the registry.
    Thank you in advance for your time!

    Thank you for your time and response! Unfortunately, we have the machine locked down pretty tight (they are public use computers that require heavy restriction) and it is set to restrict all drives so access is limited to the local profile. We did try
    testing your method, however, by adding the Desktop as an allowed location in the Office policy (which would not solve the issue for the other applications but was good for a test) using the path %userprofile%\desktop. When choosing that location, it does
    not throw the error but unfortunately, it does not remember like it did for your with the E: drive so it still always throws the error when first loading the dialogue box no matter what I do. If you're able to confirm that this is simply by design and we're
    just expected to inform our users to click through the errors, then I guess that's the accepted answer. Although, do you think that there might be a registry key value that is set after you save to the E: drive for the first time? Maybe we could set that value
    to %userprofile%\desktop if it's doing the redirection after the first save through registry. Thanks again!

  • Win 2K8 R2 - Group Policy Management - Failed to Open Group Policy Object. You may not have appropriate rights. The network path was not found.

    New to Windows Server 2008 R2 Administration.
    I setup this Windows 2008 R2 Server on a Dell 2950 Poweredge server and have been migrating users off of an old NT style domain running on Samba 3.6 on CentOS.
    I have the domain setup (nicholas.sacredheartsaratoga.org), added users, and have moved users / computers over to the new domain and working.
    When attempting to setup Group Policy Objects, I continually get the "Failed to Open Group Policy Object" Error.  This is driving me nuts and seems to be a 49 error.. which I have done a ton of research on but none of the suggested fixes seem
    to be working.

  • Group Policy Management | No such interface supported

    Running Windows Server 2008 R2 as a Domain Controller and when I open Group Policy Management, click on a GPO, then click on the Settings tab, it pops up an error message that says "No such interface supported".  I've found several articles
    that talk about registering .dll files and I've done that and nothing.  I've uninstalled GPMC and reinstalled and that didn't fix anything.  Can anyone help resolve this?

    Hi Jason,
    Before going further, do we have other domain controllers? If yes, does GPMC work correctly on these domain controller? GPMC reports the error "No Such interface supported" normally is due to a missing or corrupted Windows component.
    Besides, do we update the server to the latest? If not, we can update the server to the latest and then reinstall the GPMC to see if the issue persists.

  • MSI not installing via Group Policy - Insists location does not exist

    Hi
    I am creating a group policy object whereby I am pointing my software package installation to \\192.168.1.3\GPO\MSOCached32bit.msi
    The location has permissions for the machine accounts on both the share and the ntfs permissions with read only access.
    I have created an OU and moved a Windows XP machine into it, linked the GPO and made sure that the XP machine is not using optimised log on.
    From the machine I can reach the share and see the file from the path above.
    However each time I reboot the machine I am testing on the installation fails, the exact error being:
    The install of application MSO from policy MSO Installation failed. The error was : The installation source for this product is not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it.
    This is rather odd, since I can see it, the machine account has permissions to see it and I cannot see what the problem is.
    I have then gone on to enable verbose logging of the MSI installer which has produced the following:

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi,
    This is not something related to the GPO issue. The issue is with MSI and the packaging. Condition the ResolveSource action.
    Try Copying the MSI to local machine using a script and execute it.
    ResolveSource actually requires that the original installation source is available whenever it is called. If your installer package is authored correctly, source must only be resolve in cases where the original RTM files are missing or during some patch
    uninstall scenarios.

  • I get a Group Policy Disk Quota failure at every system start

    This is very long, my apologies
    I asked this question about a month ago and then had some medical problems so I'm starting over again.
    Whenever I start my system I get a message on the screen that the system is trying to run Group Policy for Disk Quotas.  To my knowledge I've never set a disk quota policy and I can't find any indication that one is currently set.  I freely admit
    that I could be responsible for this.  I might have done something in the early days of the system because it wasn't happening for the first month or two.
    This time I did more reading and found a procedure on TechNet at:
    "http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749336(WS.10).aspx" which led me step by step through the procedure, although I still can't make sense of the results.
    So far I've verified that there are no policies set and that all the hard drives (3) have the Disk Quota bit 'disabled'.  I did this as 'Administrator'.
    The results from the TechNet procedure turned out to be quite long but I'm listing it here in hope that someone in the community will be familiar with this problem and be able to use the information to figure out the problem. 
    Here are the results:
    From: TechNet Group Policy Testing
    ( "http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc749336(WS.10).aspx" )
    1 - Troubleshooting using the Group Policy operational log
          a - Determine the instance of Group Policy processing
               (Before you view the Group Policy operational log, you must first determine 
               the instance of Group Policy processing that failed.)
    My ActivityID from the Group Policy operational log = C87E5BC2-FD21-4794-B678-787AB587D8D5
    2 - Create a custom view, via a query, of the Group Policy instance
    My resultant query:
    <QueryList><Query Id="0" Path="Application"><Select Path="Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy/Operational">*[System/Correlation/@ActivityID='{C87E5BC2-FD21-4794-B678-787AB587D8D5}']</Select></Query></QueryList>
    3 - Results of running the query from step 2 are listed below, in chronological order, including the complete 'detail' sections from each event.

    Did you ever have luck tracking this down?  Im getting this error and have no clue where it is coming from.  I have not enabled gp disk quotas, but I do have a network share on a domain member server that has quotas attached to each users folder. 
    I removed the quotas and still get this error when I manually perform a gpupdate. 

  • Group Policy processing failure on 2008 when MIX Domain 2003 with DC 2008

    Dear I try to add additional Windows 2008 Domain to My Domain controller 2003  and I ma Receiving Group policy error in DC 2008  With Event ID 1055
    The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows could not resolve the computer name. This could be caused by one of more of the following: 
    a) Name Resolution failure on the current domain controller. 
    b) Active Directory Replication Latency (an account created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).

    Any help or advice 

    Hi,
    Were there other error codes logged in Event Viewer?
    Regarding Event ID 1055, the following article can be referred to for troubleshooting.
    Event ID 1055 — Group Policy Preprocessing (Security)
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc727272(v=ws.10).aspx
    Based on the report you posted, this issue may be related to FRS replication service. As a result, we can use ntfrsutl tool to check whether the replication service is healthy.
    Regarding this point, the following articles can be referred to for more information.
    Troubleshooting File Replication Service

    Ntfrsutl
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh875636.aspx
    In addition, we can also try doing a non-authoritative Sysvol restore on Windows Server 2008 DC to see whether the issue persists.

    Hope it helps.

  • How can I setup a scheduled task to run a Powershell Script delivered as a Group Policy Preference

    I have a Powershell script I want to run only once when a user logs onto their system. This script would move all the PST files from the Local drive and the Home drive to a folder location within the users profile. I wanted to run this as a Windows 7 Scheduled Task using Group Policy Preferences. How can I get this to happen short of a logon script? I have updated all the machines to WMF 4.0 so could I use a Scheduled Job instead? I wanted to run the script as the logon user but elevated.#Start Outlook and Disconnect attached PST files.
    $Outlook = New-Object -ComObject Outlook.Application
    $namespace = $outlook.getnamespace("MAPI")
    $folder = $namespace.GetDefaultFolder("olFolderInbox")
    $explorer = $folder.GetExplorer()
    $explorer.Display()
    $myArray= @()
    $outlook.Session.Stores | where{ ($_.FilePath -like'*.PST') } | foreach{[array]$myArray+= $_.FilePath}
    for
    ($x=0;$x-le$myArray.length-1;$x++)
    $PSTPath= $myArray[$x]
    $PST= $namespace.Stores | ?{$_.FilePath -like$PSTPath}
    $PSTRoot= $PST.GetRootFolder() #Get Root Folder name of PST
    $PSTFolder= $Namespace.Folders.Item($PSTRoot.Name) #Bind to PST for disconnection
    $Namespace.GetType().InvokeMember('RemoveStore',[System.Reflection.BindingFlags]::InvokeMethod,$null,$Namespace,($PSTFolder)) #Disconnect .PST
    #Move All PST files to the default location while deleting the PST files from their original location.
    $SourceList = ("$env:SystemDrive", "$env:HOMEDRIVE")
    $Destination = ("$env:USERPROFILE\MyOutlookFiles")
    (Get-ChildItem -Path $SourceList -Recurse -Filter *.PST) | Move-Item -Destination $Destination
    #Attach all PST files from the default location.
    Add-type -assembly "Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook" | out-null
    $outlook = new-object -comobject outlook.application
    $namespace = $outlook.GetNameSpace("MAPI")
    dir “$env:USERPROFILE\MyOutlookFiles\*.pst” | % { $namespace.AddStore($_.FullName) }

    Mike,
    I do not understand what appears to be a regular expression above. I did add the PowerShell script to the HKCU RunOnce Key as suggested.
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -noprofile -sta -WindowStyle Hidden -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -File "C:\scripts\Windows PowerShell\Move-PST.ps1"
     I'm delivering this using Group Policy Preferences. It seems to fail or time out when run because the behavior is different if I run the script from within the PowerShell IDE. I added the parameters to the script and will try it again in the morning.

  • RDS 2012 R2 - How do I lockdown access to Local Computer Management and Windows Backup via Group Policy

    Greetings all,
    I am needing assistance in how to lockdown access to Local Computer Management and Windows Backup via Group Policy for users that access RDS service. I have followed this awesome guide - h t t p://w w w.it.ltsoy.com/windows/lock-down-remote-desktop-services-server-2012/
      - but it is missing two important resources that I would like to lock down.Currently, I have successfully locked down Control Panel for users via Group Policy, but I cannot find any group policy or guide on how to restrict user access
    to Computer Management (different to Server Manager). When using Win-X shortcut to open the 'Administrator's shortcuts' near the windows icon, I have locked down everything except Computer Management. Computer Management gives direct access to Disk Management,
    Shares etc, which are locked down for users. But Windows Server Backup is still accessible. Can someone please guide me on how to restrict access to both Computer Management and Windows Server Backup.
    Thanks in advance.
    Terry.

    Prevent running of Windows Server Backup
    Computer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\File System
    Right click on File System - Add File - Drill down to \System32\wbadmin.msc
    On the Database Security ACL that pops up - Remove Creator Owner, Remove Users and check Adminstrators have Full Access.
    On the Object window - choose Propagate inheritable permissions to all... (Default)
