Build 10049- unable to open update, Notiofication Center, start menu, etc.

Build 10049- unable to open update, Notiofication Center, start menu, etc.

Hello, Windows 10 Build 10049 is unusable on my system, and I cannot update to the latest build because I cannot access the update screen.  

Since upgrading to Build 10049, I have been unable to access most features of Windows 10. I cannot access the Notifications or Action Center, the start menu does not open - unless I right-click.

And I cannot access the update screen, to finally update from this build. As I said my start menu does not work properly, and when I use search (right-click start menu -> Select Search) then I type "Update", I am given a list of update options (Update, Check for Updates, Advanced Update Settings). But when I select any of them, nothing happens.

Please help me resolve this issue, so that I can upgrade to the latest build.  THANKS!

i solve the problem you just have to deactivate the option " allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" in (energy management tab) located in [configuration] in the properties of you wifi adapter in my case was "Qualcomm Atheros", dont forget to Restart your computer when you make this change, its the only way to really apply the option. xD

Reed,

Your song contains two kind of sentences. 

  1. About posters who give to few information to make it possible to help them;
  2. Messages which are understandable but not correct English.

The first is helpful to show what persons should not to. The second is humiliating and will persons stop using this forum.

I hope we keep it with the first.

Outlook 2013 SEND AS Default

Hello,

We have Exchange 2013 and using Outlook 2013. is it possible to make SEND AS option as default sending e-mail option?

Enhancement Request: A more useful FIND function in MS Excel

I'm sure many of you have found yourselves in the same boat as me: You need to know if a certain substring appears anywhere in a cell or group of cells.  You don't care where the substring is, just whether it's there or not.  You most likely would like to take action based on the result with an IF statement, right?

Unfortuantely, the built-in FIND function in Excel returns an Integer result, representing the placement of the starting character of the substring you searched for, rather than a boolean result.  That wouldn't be a deal breaker if there were a standard integer return value you could expect (and take action accordingly) if the substring isn't found (say -1).  Unfortunately, it doesn't even do that; you receive "#VALUE" if the substring isn't present in the search area.  If you're using a FIND function in a complex nested function, the entire nested function is broken.

There is a work-around in the form of the ISNUMBER function.  You can use this function to brute-force a boolean result:

=IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("ABCD",A1)),"Yes","No")

This is clearly a shim & not at all elegant.

I do realize that the legacy FIND function needs to remain as-is in order to provide backwards compatibility, but I would very much like to see Microsoft introduce an alternative to the FIND function which returns a boolean result in a future version of Excel.

Hi,

It looks like you have another application installed already using TCP port 80, which would stop your IIS website coming on line.

To check which process, try TCPView, you can see which process is using which port...

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb897437.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

Another quick test would be to change your default web site to port 81 for example.

Hope this helps!


------------------------------------
Reply:

I checked the 80 port with the following command

C:\Windows\system32>netstat -ab | find ":80"
TCP    0.0.0.0:80             s6:0                   LISTENING
TCP    [::]:80                s6:0                   LISTENING


------------------------------------
Reply:
please focus on the second picture

------------------------------------
Reply:
Yes but TCPView will tell you which application is already using TCP 80, fix that and the website/apppool will be able to start up.
Or remove the find pipe from netstat as the exe is displayed on the next line.

Hi,

Yes it looks like you have, they are listed as 'http' and 'https' under local port. Unfortunately it states running as System under the process, so if your default web site is not started you need to establish what software is running this and using the ports 80(http) and 443(https). What else do you have installed on this server?

I'm no expert on NPS, but I believe the HRA component uses IIS, I'm not sure you can therefore share an NPS/HRA server with a normal web server, someone with more knowledge of this product may be able to help, or post to the NPS forum...

I had NPS and web server role on the same server and when  I wanted to browse localhost it shows  this

tthen I unistalled NPS and WEB server role and install IIS again and it showed this

Reply:

Hi,

According to your description, my understanding is that IIS has been installed on Windows Server 2012 R2, it prompts Windows Security and asks for username/password to access http://localhost using IE. Uninstall NPS and web server and re-install IIS, it prompts error "Can't Start Application Pool" when try to start default web site.

About the IE problem, you may try to confirm Internet Option setting:
Security – Local intranet - User Auth – Logon - automatic logon

Above is my suggestion. There are specific forum about IIS(http://forums.iis.net/) and IE(https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/home?forum=ieitprocurrentver), I recommend you to post there for official support.

It asked username and password from digest on first image.. tried correct username and password it prompt again...

Can you check the AppPool advanced properties and set the "Enable 32-Bit Applications" to True, this may get your pool started.

I still think if the Default Web site is not started and something is prompting for a username and password when you IE to localhost you have another application answering on port 80, which is not IIS though!

SharePoint online Thirdparty venders that offer public forms that can connect to SharePoint

Hi

Have anyone seen in their travels online a solution for sending in forms over the web (fill inn forms by anonymous users) to SharePoint Online(SharePoint Lists and libraries)?

Case:

You can add a form (or a link to it) on your non SharePoint company website. When an anonymous user fills in this form (for example a  form for applying for a job position in the company). Then when the user submits/sends the form, it will automatically appear in your SharePoint list.

This would be an excellent product. Does it exist?

I dont want to use the public site collection in SharePoint Online as Microsoft plans to rid themselves of it.

Nintex Forms does this quite well. I haven't used the Office 365 version, but they advertise the same capability in both On Prem and Office 365. You build a form using their design tool, and then to make it available to external users you just check a checkbox.

Allow Non-Administrator accounts to create event sources and write to event logs

We are setting up BizTalk 2013 in Windows Server 2012 and one of the requirements is to allow the service account to create sources and write in event logs (Application) of the BizTalk servers. We have found what it seems to be a simple solution for this without giving service accounts local admin rights.

Give Full control for the following registry keys to the service accounts or groups to allow creating of event sources and write to event logs:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Security
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Security

Note: when changing permissions for EventLog key, the child keys will inherit the permissions by default except Security key which must be done manually.

Initial tests using a .net test app seems to work as expected. New event sources are being created in the event logs and writing to the event logs after that works perfectly.

The above method has been deployed in production and this is the most suitable solution for us.

About the new build 10061 and the older one 10049

Windows 10 Technical Preview Build 10061 now available

http://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/04/22/windows-10-technical-preview-build-10061-now-available/

If you're in the Slow ring, we made the decision not to push 10049 out to you because of the bug with long upgrade times caused by installing all Language Packs. We'll evaluate how 10061 goes in the Fast ring before deciding whether to push it out to Slow as well. The Language Pack issue is a good example of our approach to the Fast/Slow rings for the Windows Insider Program, and why we have two rings.

Not sure how this will work.

can you please advise. as write is only giving them to create new file but not to edit old files and save or rename the old file. modify gives them delete also. please advise

Create a group and make the people who need the special permissions members of that group.  Assign the group to the directory. On the directory, open the properties, select the group, and click Advanced.  You need to edit Special Permissions.  It allows you to allow/disallow down to a very fine level.

PowerShell 2.0 - Outputting multi-dimensional custom objects to consumable text file?

I use PSObjects a lot... and always find myself building objects that contain properties that contain other objects. ...which then inevitably leads me to trying to figure out a way to output the data into a txt format that is usable to non-PowerShellers (e.g. peers/management).

In PowerShell v3+, I use ConvertTo-Json | Out-File but have not been able to figure out a solid way to do this same thing in 2.0.

Does anyone know of a good way to output nested custom objects to some sort of txt file in PowerShell 2.0?

TIA!


Reply:

If you want to bring it back into PowerShell you've got Export-CLIXML which will dump out the objects in an XML format. On the down side it's a real pain to read even if you're fluent with xml.

I've always resorted to CSV or XML files, the ConvertTo-Json option is a new one to me so thanks, i'm going to go try that out. If you find a good solution i'm all ears.


------------------------------------
Reply:

Yeah I did know about Export-Clixml, I just always shy away from using it because again, my purpose isn't for PowerShell re-use, it's for non-PowerSheller consumption in a "txt file" format and as you intimated -- it's a horrific format visually.  I think I know what I'm going to have to do, I just am trying to find an excuse not to do it:  write an html tree-view cmdlet...

If I don't get an answer, I'll post back to here when I finish it.

Legacy App Compatibility

Cannot find anyone anywhere discussing failures of legacy apps crashing on 10041 and 10049.

They ran fine on original 9926 back in February?? And they run fine on a clean installed 10049 where they are installed after the OS. However it's impossible to uninstall & re-install them on an updated 10049 install. Tried all the hyper uninstall utils like Revo with no luck.

App crashing behavior:  
apps load & run fine until you try to involve File Explorer to insert images.
Inserting items native to the apps like symbols, etc work fineBut the apps below immediatley crash once the open the external "file" selection window provided under Explorer

Apps crashing of interest:

Dreamweaver CS3 (photoshop is fine)

Word 07

Corel x5
