The network location profile changes from "Domain" to "Private" in Windows 8.1.

I have a network which is centered around a Server 2012R2 installation with the Server Essentials Role installed. I have installed and configured a DNS server which points to the router and open DNS as forwarders.
There are 3 physical computers on my network and two additional virtual ones (the vm's are hosted on the server).
The server shows the domain profile.
VM1 - Server 2012R2 virtual machine core install hosting a SQL server - it shows the domain profile
VM2 - Windows 8.1 enterprise evaluation - Shows the domain profile
Desktop - Windows 8.1 pro with media center - shows the domain profile
Laptop - Windows 8.1 enterprise evaluation - shows private profile
Surface Pro - Running Windows 8.1 pro - shows private profile.
They all have network discovery enabled for all network types.
As I was writing this my surface randomly shifted to domain again. However my laptop shows private (I am writing this from my laptop)
This is a problem because it appears my devices are having trouble finding and discovering other network devices because of this.
All of the devices have the same gateway, dns settings, and subnets settings.
All of the workstation except the VM server have the server essentials connector installed.
Please let me know if there is any additional helpful information I can provide to get this resolved.

IMPORTANT: I found the solution.  Another user figured it out and posted the answer on another thread.
Please spread this around to all other Outlook support techs so they know to point people in the direction of the quick (though very obscure) fix to this problem. 
See this thread for how to disable graphics acceleration in Office, which iswhat causes the rundll23 error.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 - unable to change the Network category when is in domain

    HI, I've read articles about this topic but after all tries - i couldn't find appropriate decision and i still have problem. 
    Set-NetConnectionProfile : Unable to set the NetworkCategory due to one of the following possible reasons: not running
    PowerShell elevated; the NetworkCategory cannot be changed from 'DomainAuthenticated'; user initiated changes to Networ
    kCategory are being prevented due to the Group Policy setting 'Network List Manager Policies'.
    At line:1 char:1
    + Set-NetConnectionProfile -InterfaceIndex 16 -NetworkCategory Public
    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
        + CategoryInfo          : PermissionDenied: (MSFT_NetConnect...EA9E84DF602D}"):root/StandardCi...nnectionProfile)
       [Set-NetConnectionProfile], CimException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MI RESULT 2,Set-NetConnectionProfile
    I have  two NIC on my server2 - joined to domain as domain member  ( NIC are public (internet) and private (local net) )  Now they both are in NetworkCategory - DomainAuthenticated.
    I tryed:
    1. Check for Administrator  privileges on Powershell - OK
    2. Try to Change GPO - Network List Manager Policy - to be available for changes from user  - NO success
    3. Check - Local Policy on Server2 - too NO success
    4. Try to change throught command  with PowerShell   ->   Set-NetConnectionProfile -InterfaceIndex 16 -NetworkCategory Public  Again - NO success
    5.
     thru the registry:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList\Profiles\
    open the network profile that you have to change and modify the "Category" value:
    0 = public
    1 = private
    2 = domain
    NO Success
    Did anybody have some other idea - what to do?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, the topology of th network ist the next:
    ISP (DATACENTER) ->  SRV1 (phisical) +  SRV2 &SRV3 (virtual) 
    Every one of them have 2 NIC  ( for server  2 and 3  - virtual  too)  
    NIC1 - operates on private level -  192.168.1.1 dns, gate,dc (srv1)
    NIC2 - real ip address, gate - gateway of ISP  dns - 192.168.1.1
    When set up NIC1 - everything is ok .
    NIC2 - action is : set ip and mask - enable without gate  - then it is in unidentified status  and  go in public state.
    disable nic2, set up gateway  - and dns - 192.168.1.1  and again enable - everything is ok
    But after restart  - nic2 - goes again in Domainauthenticated mode. :(
    Additional:
    On srv2 - i put RRAs role and smthing stange is that after enable rras service - all ports are shutted and machine pretendet to be invisible.

  • Invalid Credentials: The Network location cannot be reached

    I am working with MDT 2010, and I am getting the error, "Invalid Credentials:  The Network location cannot be reached." When I run the LiteTouch 64 bit, I don't think the network is working.  It's like there is not driver for the network card in
    the LiteTouch 64 bit to make the network connection.  When I hit F8 key, it brings a DOS box up for testing, and I found out these things.
     - I can ping the loop back address 127.0.0.1.
     - Cannot use the net use command to connect to the server share \\server01\DeploymentSahre$.
     - I can not ping by name or IP address the server that is holding my Deployment Share.
    This is the first time I am working with this technology, and I was following a guide off the Technet library.  It almost like I am missing the driver for the network card.  I have Windows Deployment installed on server01, the server will answer,
    and I am able to put in my user name and password,  it accepts and starts loading. 
    I did figure out how to inject the network drivers into Windows Deployment for the Motherboard I was using, do I have to do the same thing here again? MDT is using the Windows Deployment Images on the server01; MDT is setup on server01.   I would have
    thought that since the driver was already injected into the Image MDT would use that as well.  So, do I need to put a driver into the LiteTouch 64bit image and if I do how do I do that?
    thanks very much for your help,

    If you haven't updated the deployment share after adding the proper drivers to OOBD then your LiteTouch boot images will not have them included.  Just right click the deployment share and click on Update Deployment Share, it will take a while but it
    will rebuild the boot images with the drivers you've included in OOBD.  Then it's just a matter of either recreating the flash drives or loading the updated image into WDS.  
    Another thought:
    We had an issue with some HP's that had Main Boards replaced.  the BIOS time was WAY off and the UUID wasn't setting itself because the network was denying it access to our servers (because of the horribly wrong time).  Once we corrected the time
    in the BIOS everything ran fine.  The error we got while trying to do the deployment was the same as what you describe and we could still ping various machines on the network too.

  • When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%.

    When placing a Illustrator file in Indesign, the Illustrator file sometime changes from 100%. When you select the placed file with the selection tool, it says 100%, but if you select with the direction tool, file has been changed any where from 98 to 102 %, not staying at the 100%? why is this and how can you asure the size does not change when placed or when updating the illustrator link?

    Probably you have inserted files in a frame whose content was previously adequate with "Fit Content Proportionally" or "Fill Frame Proportionally".
    The new content in the same frame will have the same characteristics as the previous one

  • What is the effect if I Raise my domain functional level to Windows Server 2012 R2 ?

    Hi,
    my current servers:
    Domain Controllers= Windows Server 2012 R2 (current domain functional level is windows 2008 R2)
    Mail servers= Exchange 2010 SP3 on Windows 2008 R2
    Lync= Lync 2010 on Windows server 2008 R2
    What is the effect if I Raise my domain functional level to Windows Server 2012 R2 ?
    I am very worried about Exchange & Lync if we do this action
    please advice

    Do not raise the forest functional level higher if you have or will have any domain controllers running
    an earlier version of Windows Server , which is (windows Nt4.0,  Window 2000 or windows 2003)
    but as a matter of fact I dont see any of those in your network so you can easily upgrade the funtional level without any issues
    Listed below link has the table which shows the effects of upgrading the domain functional levels to Windows 2012

  • How to change the Network Location without admin right?

    How to allow an normal user to change their network location without adminstrator rights? Thanks

    You can't, unless you change your user rights to Admin.  Now, you can reset all the passwords and admin through a reset process, but if this is a corporate owned Mac, you could get in trouble.  Even fired.  If it's your parent's Mac, then just get them to give you admin rights.

  • Network locations settings transfer from 10.5.8 to 10.6.2

    Hi,
    I migrated my previous Mac Book Pro 15 under Mac os 10.5.8 under my new Mac Book Pro 13 under 10.6.2.
    I migrated from portable mac to new ones since 10.3 and got my Network Locations settings migrated as well. With Snow Leopard I did not get those settings migrated.
    However as I am very often at different places, I just have a very large list of locations settings.
    I can not find any indications on how to export/import them. The preferences.xml file that contains this information up to 10.5 seems not to exist anylonger.
    Any equivalent or working procedure to advise?
    Thanks a lot.

    You have to pay to go from where you are to Snow Leopard. Then you can get Lion (pay again!) Or you can order the new USB drive version (pay again - either way, you pay!) and load Lion directly w/o any of the other updates. Snow Leopard is $30 + Lion is $30 = $60, or get the USB stick for $69.

  • My iPad suddenly stopped connecting to my home network. It shows the network to. Choose from but there is no IP address or other information on the network page. It is set on DHCP and proxy is set at auto. Do I have another setting wrong?

    My iPad suddenly stopped working with my home network.  It shows the network to choose from but will not connect. When I look at details in that network it does not show IP address or any other info for the network.  Setting is on DHCP and http proxy is set on auto. Network is active and can connect on wife's iPad and other home computers.  Do I have another setting wrong?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • What are the issues of the Tax Code length change from 2 to 4 characters?

    Dear All,
    I understand sales tax codes (T007A-MWSKZ) will be changing from 2 characters to 4 characters in 2010. Can anyone explain the implications this is expected to have?
    Will the impact to the system be large or small?
    What factors will we need to consider in preparation for this change?
    Kind regards,

  • [Spartan] Does the cookie location is changed in Spartan?

    Checked the cookie location by shell:cookies or shell:cookie\low, it seems that the cookie location is different with previous IE. 
    Can u specify the location of the cookies? 

    Hi,
    Currently, there's no much articles describing the details of Project Spartan since it is still on the way of development, I use Process Monitor and trace the process when deleting the temporary internet files and cookies in Project Spartan, the monitor
    trace redirects me to the following location:
    C:\User\username\AppData\Local.... (you need to show hidden files and system protected files under the "View" option) different from previous IE.
    I also find location C\Users\username\AppData\Local\Spartan\Cookies, this is not shown up on my monitor trace.
