Windows Search and pooled VDI Clients

Hello
The management of our customer want to use necessarily the Windows Search on floating VDI Clients. What’s the best way in your opinion to enable this? The Search Index (Database) will be computer-based and should not be generated after each pooled machine
creation. Is there a way, to cache this on a central location? What is the best practice for VDI environments in this case? Is there an supported way?
Best Regards, Daniel

  • I have windows 7 and my firefox client will not open, but it shows in task manager with 108k memory. Whats going on with my firefox?

    As stated on the question I have windows 7 and meet all the requirements. But when i launch firefox It wont start, but it shows in task manager with 108k memory.

    Got the exact same problem aswell, finally fed up with it now as i just started up firefox and 14 new windows opened because of this bug, luckily my computer can handle them but someone with a slower processor it would have been a nightmare, needs fixing ASAP.
    Reverting back to 3.6.3 until this issue is solved. (link for anyone wanting to do the same below)

  • ITunes 9.0.1 windows 7 and outlook - default client error message in sync

    So I've just installed a new copy of the RTM release of Windows 7 (clean install on new PC). I've installed my outlook 2002 and iTunes as well and replicated my settings identically to my old system running on XP.
    The problem I'm getting is that everytime I try to synch my iPhone to iTunes, I get the following error message:
    Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging requests. Please run Microsoft Outlook and set it as the default mail client.
    Now....I do not use outlook for mail and most IMPORTANTLY, in the iTunes sync Info window for my iPhone, Mail Accounts is unticked so that it should not sync.
    Normally, I'd call this a microsoft issue, but I think this is a problem with iTunes and Windows 7 possibly. It looks like iTunes is trying to do something with the mail client even thought I have it configured to ignore mail account synching.
    Anyone have this problem and a solution?
    I tried doing a detect and repair in microsoft outlook, but the problem is still present.

    Ya I had the same problem. Just uncheck all of the outlook boxes and then re-sync. Then recheck them all and re-sync, after that my itunes got hung up on calenders so to fix that just go into preferences, devices and then click reset sync history and you should be all set.

  • Error in window server 2012 pooled VDI deployment

    Hi, I am trying to create a pooled virtual desktop connection. Seems the first VM got stuck, the rest of the VMs in pending. After a while, it failed with:  The
    VMHostAgent service timed out while waiting for the newly provisioned virtual desktop to start.
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks
    Emmy

    Hi Emmy,
    Most times this error caused by the following reasons and you also can enable RDS log then got the detail information:
    Your template image has customized script and there has some error occur when creating the template, we can temporary delete this script then monitor this issue again.
    May the IP of Virtual desktops not configured correctly, such as DHCP not configured correctly to offer IP address.

  • Windows xp and the Oracle8 client software v 8.0.5..0.0

    How do I install just the Oracle ODBC drivers on Windows XP
    I would like to access a remote Oracle database on my network via ODBC
    from Access XP.
    I want to know if Client Oracle 8 and ODBC drivers are compatible with windows XP
    I am new to Oracle, so any assistance you can provide will be
    greatly appreciated.
    Sorry for my english

    Since XP wasn't around when the 8.0.5 client was released, it's probably not certified on XP. I suspect it will probably work, but there's no guarantee that there won't be subtle problems.
    Is it possible for you to use a more recent version of Oracle. 9i may support XP.

  • VPN on Windows 7 Pro, Windows 7 and 8.1 clients

     I am wanting to setup my desktop at home (running Windows 7 Pro) to host a VPN, so when I'm away I can connect to it and have network resources available. I want to connect through the internet. I have attempted to set this up a few times, but I
    get errors. There is not a server or ADDS running on my home network. My home network in connected with a Netgear router. I have forwarded port 1720 to the PC that I have the VPN incoming connection setup on. Please help!!!

    Windows, does allow for folder permissions. That is why, at first thought, I figured using the VPN built into Windows was the answer. But it seems to be really buggy and hard to get to work on a home based network. Setting up VPN on Windows Server, however,
    is easy. I know the connections will strain resources a bit, but I only want to really allow only two connections, one for me, to be able to remote control and use the network resources when not at home, and the other for one user to have access to just a
    folder or two. I would like to do this without the need of extra software...and without really buying anything, since it is just for personal use. I guess for now, I will have to explore Team Viewers capabilities more..... 

  • Switching WSUS server and Windows 8.1/Server2008/Server2012 clients won't connect, Windows 7/Server2003 is fine

    I need to split the load of my WSUS on to another site because the amount of computers is straining the internet connection in the amount of uploads performed.
    However I'm having an issue at the second WSUS where only Windows 7 and Server 2003 clients will update...
    Windows 8.1 and Server 2008 and Server2012 won't update giving the following error codes: 8024400A and 80072EE2
    The WSUS is a Server 2012 with Local Update Publisher 1.1 installed. It works fine locally at the site but not across our WAN. 
    The clients appear in the WSUS console but fail to check for updates.
    I've tried it with the firewall turned off...  
    Both WSUS servers are using Microsoft SCEP 2012.
    Has anyone out there experienced this? Or have any suggestions to fix?
    Cheers.

    Hi there,
    I spoke too soon, I think I got one Windows 8 client to update yesterday by fluke. Now today it won't. 
    There's not much different between the W7 and W8 systems they both use the same antivirus. Same software but updated on W8. 
    Here is the windows update.log:

  • Windows Search 4.0 and Adobe Reader 9.2

    I've a small search utility that uses Windows Search 4.0 as the search engine. My utility queries Windows Search and retrieves the results. I've a few PDF files as well to search. I'm able to search a few of these PDFs using the my utility and some of the PDFs are never returned in the search results, although, I copy a phrase in that PDF and search. Search fails when I try from Windows Search interface as well.
    As I understand, the IFilter is bundled with the Adobe Reader package from AR 8.0. So, I've not installed it separately. The strange thing some PDFs are searchable and some or not. Am not sure as what could be the issue here . Anyone else have faced this issue? Am not sure what to look for to resolve this issue?

    I have just encountered the same problem. I am using the HTC Titan phone by Sprint with WM6 and Adobe Reader LE 2.0. I am only interested in internal document links (jumps to other pages). I tried two PDFs which work fine on the PC under Reader 7.0 but don't work on the HTC. I even tried setting the conversion option on ActiveSync to OFF.
    At this time, even Foxit Reader doesn't support internal links. I wonder if LE worked fine under WM5?
    Please help me resolve this one. Thank you,
    Bob

  • Win 8 and 8.1 client showing shared printer server as offline

    Hi,
    we have a problem with our print environment (HP and Ricoh printers).
    We have some Windows 8 and 8.1 clients and a Windows Server 2008 R2 printserver.
    Windows 8 and 8.1 is showing the printers as offline. Its seems the problem described here ->
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2713128
    We already installed the fix on the server but this didn't resolve the issue.
    Maybe somebody have the same issues and an alternate solution for this?
    Best regards

    Hi,

  • Create process file in Windows 7 and cannot open it in Windows XP

    Hi,
    I have just created a process file in my development PC with OS windows 7. I copy the process file to my testing PC with OS WIndows XP and NI lookout client version. It seems that all graphic is gone and cannot be displayed. What can I do now? Thanks

    Yes, you are right.
    The development server software is for developing process, either server or client process. The server process has the driver object.
    The runtime only server software is for deploying and running the server process. So, your customer needs the runtime only server software to run your process that connects to the PLC. Of course, the customer can use the development server software.

  • Prevent Windows Search from indexing PST contents in Outlook

    Running Windows 8.1 with Windows Search, and Office 2013 with more that 20GB in more than 10 PSTs and OSTs, searching becomes very slow after indexing everything. Reindexing has no change. If I exclude Outlook it's very fast.
    There is an option in Outlook search ribbon -> Search Tools -> Locations to search. I removed most of the PSTs (accounting for 75% of the contents), but still ALL PSTs and OSTs get indexed (although they won't be searched).
    This makes using Windows Search nearly impossible (e.g. searching using the charm thing takes 30 seconds).
    How can I have Windows Search index ONLY the PSTs and OSTs that I specifically want?
    Is there any configuration, registry stuff or programatic workaround to exclude from indexing (not searching)?
    Thank you.
    Andy.PT

    Hi,
    Still, as mentioned above, I don't have such a method to choose which to be included in Indexing and which to be excluded.
    The only thing that I find which is close to your request is this:
    If the method above isn't helpful in your scenario(as you mentioned), you can try some 3rd-party tools/add-ins to realize a new search function which may meet your request.

    It can't preview the content.
    Anyway I click one of email but can't link to open it by outlook
    I try to place that email on desktop and open it still failure
    Please kindly help

    Hi,
    Thanks for you question.
    As per the description, I understand you are unable to open the Outlook 2010 items that are listed in the Windows Search results. Additionally, the Outlook items that are listed in the Windows Search results are displayed with the new Outlook 2013 icon.
    Does this happen right after installing Project 2013? As far as I know, sometimes when you install Office 2013 components in a mixed environment that has Outlook 2010 will result in unexpected behavior.
    To work around this issue, you can follow the steps
    here to repair Office 2010 after the installation of Project 2013.

  • How do you remove virtual desktops from a Windows Server 2012 R2 Pooled VDI collection

    All - I have created a Pool VDI Collection with 15 total virtual desktops in it. I need to reduce the number of virtual desktops in that collection to five. I have searched through the GUI, TechNet and done a number of Google searches but nothing helpful
    comes back. Does anyone know how to do this?
    I am guessing I cannot just delete them out of Hyper-V since the collection knows how many desktops it is supposed to have assigned to it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Will,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    We can use PowerShell command “Remove-RDVirtualDesktopFromCollection“ to achieve your goal.

  • Disabling SMB2 and SMB3 Client from Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.

    There are many programs that are using a shared file on the server from clients from XP to Windows 10. From time to time it seems like there is a network outage and the handle to the file is broken and the file
    cannot be read or updated. It seems more prevalent on a Windows 2012 server but may have happened from time to time on 2008 & 2008 R2. However there are not any network problems so it just leaves the server & Client
    I have searched for possible resolutions including:-
    Turning  off the Cache for the share
    Disabling the network adapter power setting to allow windows to put the device to sleep.
    Disabling  Antivirus/configuring it to ignore folders for on access scanning
    Disabling SMB  Signing
    Configuring the  clients DWORD registry value SilentForcedAutoReconnect=1 in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\NetCache
    Setting the "NET CONFIG SERVER /AUTODISCONNECT:-1" to not drop client
    connections
    The last bit of trouble shooting that I can think of is to disable SMB2 and SMB3 as that does a lot of caching and batching of packets which could also be the cause of the problem.
    I have looked at
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2696547/en-us
    I have disabled SMB2&3 on the server as that is very straight forward.
    When I get to the section about disabling SMB2 on the client the command fails.
    sc config
    lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
      After running the above command, it returns an error: 
          [SC] ChangeServiceConfig FAILED 1059:
          Circular Service Dependency was specified.
    So it's not worth running the following command:
    sc config mrxsmb20 start= disabled
    I have tried the command on Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 10 just to confirm that it's  nothing to do with any particular PC, machines in Domains and Non-Domain machines.
    So, my questions are:-
    1, is
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2696547/en-us actually correct and up to date and for the OSes (Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 2012 server and Windows 10) with latest updates & service packs?
    2, How do I disable SMB2 and SMB3 on clients for troubleshooting purposes the server to resolve problems with shared files (multi user access)
    3, If I just disable SMB2 & 3 from the server would that force the clients not to use SMB2 when communicating with the server and therefore not caching the directory structure and file not found etc? I have seen posts that suggest this is not the case.
    4. Does sc.exe have a bug in it?
    Thanks in advance
    Rob

    Hi,
    I made a test in our testing enviroment, everything works fine to disable SMB2 and 3. For your problem, in my opinion, as I didn't find any specific report about this error, it would be better to use Process Monitor to capture the trace when running the
    command.
    Start Process Monitor, then set the filter as cmd.exe, after that, open CMD and execute the command.
    Process Monitor:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645.aspx
    In addition, I found another thread that had similar error with yours, you can take its solution as reference.
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/506828c8-e7af-4039-aca7-43321939bb55/offline-files-synchronization-error-the-file-specified-cannot-be-found?forum=w7itpronetworking

    Roger,
    Many thanks for the time taken to look into this.
    I've downloaded process monitor and loaded it. I filtered for cmd.exe started capture and saved a 1mb file.
    However I don't think this is going to help unless you can point me in the direction of what you're expecting to see in the capture file? If you want me to send you it I can but it does contain personal information which I'd rather not place online.
    You can recreate the problem yourself by doing the following:
    Go to modern.ie
    Download any windows 7 virtual machine for your preferred of virtualisation  platform 
    log in, start cmd as administrator and run the command
    sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
    You will also receive the same error.
    [SC] ChangeServiceConfig FAILED 1059:
    Circular Service Dependency was specified.
    You can also try it on the Windows 8 and 8.1 machine if you have time.
    I checked the link to the similar error and that just looks at the file not found problem which is the smb2 cache. They still didn't resolve the slow access to the share which is seen on a machine that has anti-virus on it when you go to right click
    on the folder or a file in the folder. It's about a 20 second (spinning circle) pause every time. The problem is bigger than that. If you have shared files on the network share that are used by multiple people at the same time, say a spreadsheet or database
    file windows is loosing the connection to that file so the user cannot write to it even if they have the file open. The smb2 caching shouldn't cause that problem.
    It appears that I have to disable from SMB2 and SMB3 and ensure that the clients only use SMB1.
    If SMB2 & SMB3 are disabled from the lanmanworkstation service the clients will not do any caching even if the server has disabled the share cache (offline files for that share).
    The problem with the "Circular reference" error message is standard across all versions of windows that have "smb2" or "smb2 and smb3". Can you recreate that problem? Or is it working on your windows computer and on the machines
    downloaded from modern.ie ?
    My testing has shown that the command "sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi" does not work. Therefore that's the one I want to resolve first. By resolving that I may be able to get the clients accessing the share to behave
    themselves and use the shared files correctly as they always did from Windows 95/NT4 through to Windows XP and 2003/2008 server.
    I'm unable to recreate the problem with multiple users having access to shared database files on windows 2012 server from Windows 7 clients were the access to the files drops once a day or once every couple of days.
    Kindest Regards
    Robert

  • Server 2008r2 and windows 7 pro slow to no networkshare file searching and file access (green progress bar)

    we are running a windows server 2008r2 sp1 domain controller and a 3com gigabit switch to which 7 windows 7 pro computers are connected. We are only using the windows server to distribute a few printers and as a network share (z drive).
    we are storing all files (word documents only) centrally on the server (z share), and files are accessed and written to the z share.
    Problem is that file access from the z share on the windows 7 client computers is at best buggy. we are able to browse the z-share, but as soon as we want to search the z-share for files (f.i. use file explorer with "content: memorandum") the green
    progress bar shows and no search is performed. something like alphabetically sorting a directory on map/file name on the z-share also shows a green bar with no sorting. manually going to the files works.
    One thing i noticed, sometimes not all files that one user created and stored on the server is visible and can be found by another user. I prefer to disable all offline file caching setting, because that feature is not used. no files should be made accessible
    offline. i don't know where to change that on the server side. 
    I am reluctant to experiment on the server end (2008r2 sp1), so i tried a few suggested solutions on the client end (windows 7 client)
    I tried disabling offline file caching
    i tried properties (z share) ==> advanced and map optimizing and several options there
    i tried disabling the smbv2 protocol and disabling the smbv1 protocol (using
    sc.exe config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi command etc. posted by microsoft)
    i tried disabling windows defender
    i tried accessing the z share via ip and server name (the share is mapped via its servername, e.g. dennis-dc1\share). still the same
    file searching on the clients c drive ('own harddrive') works much better, file searching on the server also works.
    any suggestions or solutions that i can test on the client side, as mentioned i am reluctant to change something on the server side. if a solutions works, i prefer to change it on the server side.

    Hi,
    The issue could be due to windows indexing service taking long time in sorting and searching in mapped drives. Please try the steps belwo to disable windows indexing service or search service on the windows 7 client to resolve the issue.
    You can click on Start and select Control Panel, click on
    Programs and Features, go into the Turn Windows Features on or off section Scroll down the list and uncheck the box next to Indexing Service or Windows Search.
