We have some remote users that are using a remote dekstop connection to access our company network. On the TS there is a VPN connection to an off-site AS400. If you sit at the TS machine you can use the VPN fine but if you remote to the machine the VPN will not connect. Is this something that is not allowed or does anyone have a suggestion how to correct the problem? Thanks!

Hello to all, I have some serious problems with the WUA on my PCs. It always appears the svchost.exe error message (The detailed error is: "unknown software exception" (0x000001d)) We have already made the following steps to solve the problem: - Installed the Microsoft KB927891 Update - Updated the WUA to Version 3.0 But the problem was still there. Then I changed the DEP options in the boot.ini file (from noexecute to execute). Now the error doesn't appear, but it's no Solution for the problem itself. I'd be glad for any help! Thank you Michael Brueckler

Does anyone know what these files are ? It's taking up a huge 2,33GB of space. I must assume it's part of the Vista OS, right ? Maybe not, and possibly safe to delete to free up a lot of space.

I have a curious problem with my dialup connection specifically when closing IE. In all previous editions of Windows, when closing IE, a "Do you wish to close your dialup connection" window appeared. On Vista betas and the retail VHP, this window was not present and I assumed that it was dropped in IE-7. However, about 3 months ago, it suddenly reappeared, and clicking yes closed the ISP connection the same as in previous editions. This lasted until about 3 weeks ago, when it again disappeared. This is no big problem, but a little annoying since to close the connection, it is necessary to click the network icon, select "Connect or Disconnect", and …

Hello, I'm using Vista 64 Home Premium and when any program use the save or open dialog Vista always uses a different listing.

How can I set to always use the "list" view in all program and in all file dialog? Thanks in advance!

I have gone through the steps of control panel/add-remove windows components/ticked the box for games then pressed next.

I call Microsoft to activate over the phone and explain my situation. I get redirected and redirected, then finally somebody gives me a case number and a new number to call.
