Convenience rollup update for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Introduction

This article describes a convenience rollup for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1)-based and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1-based computers. This rollup package includes most updates that were released after the release of SP1 for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, through April 2016. This convenience rollup is intended to make it easy to integrate fixes that were released after SP1 for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. We recommend that Enterprises include this rollup package in the image creation process to make it easier to quickly set up a computer.

Known issues in this convenience rollup

• Known issue 1 Symptoms
  
  A new Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) that has default settings may replace the previous NIC and cause network issues. Any custom settings on the previous NIC persist in the registry but aren't used.
  
  Resolution
  
  To fix this issue, run the following VBS script. Copy and paste this script into Notepad, and then save the file with a .vbs extension.
  
  Instructions
  
  Before you run the script, make sure that you back up the following registry key and subkeys:

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\PCI
  This script can be run on physical or virtual computers at any of the following times:

  • Immediately before installing the Convenience Rollup.

  • Immediately after installing the Convenience Rollup but before restarting the following update installation.

  • After installing Convenience Rollup 3125574 and after restarting even though the computer is in a problem state. In this situation, another restart will be required after the script is run.

  
  Note The script also includes binary version checks around PCI.SYS file.

• Known issue 2 Symptoms
  
  After you install this rollup, virtualized applications in Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V) versions 4.5, 4.6, and 5.0 may have problems loading. When these problems occur, you may receive an error message that resembles the following:

  Launching MyApp 100%

  Note In this error message, MyApp represents the name of the App-V application.
  
  
  Depending on the scenario, the virtualized app may freeze after it starts, or the app may not start at all.
  
  Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you follow these steps carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  Resolution
  
  To fix this known issue, configure the TermSrvReadyEvent registry entry on the computer on which the Microsoft Application Virtualization Client is installed.
  
  For Microsoft Application Virtualization 5.0

  • Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\AppV\Subsystem\ObjExclusions
    Value name: 93 (or any unique value)
    Type: REG_SZ
    Data: TermSrvReadyEvent
    
    
    Example
    For example, type the following command at an elevated command prompt to add the entry to a system that is running Application Virtualization 5.0:

    reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\AppV\Subsystem\ObjExclusions /v 93 /t REG_SZ /d TermSrvReadyEvent

  For Microsoft Application Virtualization 4.6

  • For all supported x86-based systems
    
    Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\SystemGuard\ObjExclusions
    Value name:95 (or any unique value)
    Type:REG_SZ
    Data: TermSrvReadyEvent
    
    Example
    For example, type the following command at an elevated command prompt to add the entry to an x86-based system that is running Application Virtualization 4.6:

    reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\SystemGuard\ObjExclusions /v 95 /t REG_SZ /d TermSrvReadyEvent

  • For all supported x64-based systems
    
    Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\SystemGuard\ObjExclusions
    Value name: 95 (or any unique value)
    Type: REG_SZ
    Data: TermSrvReadyEvent
    
    Example
    For example, type the following command at an elevated command prompt to add the entry to an x64-based system that is running Application Virtualization 4.6:

    reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\SoftGrid\4.5\SystemGuard\ObjExclusions /v 95 /t REG_SZ /d TermSrvReadyEvent

• Known issue 3 Symptoms
  
  After you install this rollup, if outgoing NTLM traffic is blocked by using the following group policy setting:

  Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\SecurityOptions\Network Security: Restrict NTLM: Outgoing NTLM traffic to remote servers Group Policy object (GPO) backup operations will fail with both Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) as well as PowerShell with the following error message:

  A directory Service error has occurred

  Additionally, gpmgmt.log will log the following errors:

  [XXX.XXX] DateTime [WARNING] LdapConnectServer: ldap_bind_s failed with 0x80072095

  
  Resolution
  
  1. You can use a Windows 8.1 or newer operating system to perform the GPO Backups instead.
  
  -OR-
  
  2. To fix this known issue, configure an exception for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Systems doing GPO Backup operations, in order to enable outgoing NTLM authentication:

  • Configure an exception through GPO (for example: ldap/contoso.com)

    Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\SecurityOptions\Network Security: Restrict NTLM: Add remote server exceptions

  • Configure an exception through the registry (for example: ldap/contoso.com)

    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA\MSV1_0\<ClientAllowedNTLMServers>

• Known issue 4 Symptoms
  
  After you install this rollup, in some cases, you may notice that the robocopy mirroring (/MIR) command is not working as expected. It is observed that instead of only copying modified files from Source to Destination, robocopy is also copying the files that were not modified.
  
  Command where the issue is observed:

  Robocopy <source> <destination> /MIR [<options>]
  Resolution
  
  To fix this issue, you are advised to use archive attribute based mirroring. In this mode, robocopy mirroring makes sure to only copy files that were modified in Source and skip the rest.
  
  Command for archive attribute based mirroring:

  Robocopy <source> <destination> /MIR /A /M [<options>] Note In first pass, it will still copy all the files. However, in subsequent runs, it will only copy the files that were modified.

• Known issue 5 Symptoms
  
  32-bit applications can't change local Group Policy in 64-bit version of Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
  
  Resolution
  
  To fix this issue, uninstall the update KB3125574.
