    Hi all

    I would like to aid which has had to face the problem below and how it was fixed.

    I have Window 7 Edition home premium and created a guest account with normal privileges that is turned on but cannot access with the error "Windows could not connect to the Group Policy client service" I think that the main problem is related to a policy because when put on the account to administer it in pop, error message says 'Cannot connect to a windows service' Please check group policy log.

    Hello

    Thank you for your time and effort to get back to us, and I apologize for the delay in responding.

    Method 1 step number d makes reference to the present Details tab on the event viewer, where you can get the details of the error. First, search for the error which will be something like Windows cannot process extension Client Strategy Group-side and click on the error and then click the Details tab and make a note of the GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) for the extension defective client-side. For reference, see the screenshot:

    Now come to step f number , it indicates the location of the Group Policy Extensions so that you can check if the extensions shown in the case log and the Registry Editor extension have a difference. The path of the GPExtension is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\GPExtensions. For reference, see the screenshot:

  • NSLU2 - cannot connect a network - xp home sp3 drive

    Hello!

    I have a network of two xp machines connected to a wrt54gl router (dhcp) a xp pro and XP home.

    I bought a NSLU2 unit. I successfully set up according to the instructions of a xp pro machine with a USB plugged into the port of disk1. It shows on this fine machine as a network device, as well as two shared folder (admin and disk1) without further delay. (A minor hiccup: I tried to serve as a dhcp client, but I couldn't for some reason, but it works very well with fixed ip.)

    However, on xp home, I can't connect at all. It does not appear in the My network, cannot connect to it with-. I can see the device in my work group, but that's it, if I click on explore, it hangs for a while, then gives a "no access, no doubt you have no authorization" error.

    I can still access it from the web interface, but otherwise no luck.

    I tried to create a user on the NSLU2 web interface with the same name as the users private XP, without success.

    Someone has an idea what to do?

    There is a resounding slap on my forehead. It was through the firewall.

    (Although now, I do not understand, how NSLU2 forced on another machine with the same parameters...) I just had to add the slug of the IP of the zone of confidence.

  • Get the error code 651 when connecting to the home group

    Original title: network query

    I am trying to connect PC (Win7 Ultimate with all the updates and I have installed Sp1) to a homegroup that my surface pro4 (Win10) opened. I get error 651 and I can not now clear homegroup even by using the Troubleshoot utility. Help, please

    Hello Kurt.

    Thanks for posting that ask you about Microsoft Community.

    According to the description, you found the 651 error when you plug the system windows 7 on a home group.

    First of all, make sure that:

    • Both systems must have a unique name.
    • Both systems need to have the same time and date.
    • Some antivirus/security programs may block or cause network problems.

    As you already ran her convenience store. I suggest to follow the methods below and check if that helps.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable security software

    Temporarily disable the security software and check if the problem persists.

    WARNING: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    If the problem persists, try Method 2,

    Method 2: Disable IPv6 for your connection

    You can do it by the separation of the adapter in the local area network connection properties dialog box:

    1. Click Startand then click Control Panel.
    2. Click network and sharing Center.
    3. In the box to view your active networks , click Local area connectionand then click Properties.
    4. Networking tab, clear the Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) check box, and then click OK.

  • Help! Safari cannot connect to the server

    I really need help! I tried to forget the network and turning it back on, I have disabled the firewall and remove all extensions of safari. I seems that nothing works.

    I get the message 'Safari cannot connect to the server' on almost every site except this and facebook. I can't enter same Urbanoutfitters.com or ASOS. I just got the message "Safari could not connect to Server" I'm not a computer genius so hopefully someone here can help me...

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

  • Windows cannot connect to the printer. Access is denied.

    From: Steve

    Desperately, I try to print from my laptop Windows Vista Home Premium to a shared printer on my home wireless network.  The shared printer is connected to a XP Home machine.  This machine is wired (via a LAN cable) to the wireless router.  I can 'see' the printer that I want to use but trying to to connect to it. I get the error message "Windows cannot connect to the printer.  Access is denied. "I would be grateful for any help.

    From: Alan Morris [MSFT]

    Since the XP machine is HOME, I don't think that the permissions dialog box is accessible.

    Run the XP network sharing wizard again and see if it affects safety correctly on sharing.

    Is the printer you share one that has drivers provided with Windows XP?

    In the meantime we will at least get the printer works for you.

    Create a local printer on Windows Vista; Creation of a Local Port in the form \\XPMACHINE\Printsharename (this will send the files by using the redirector instead of the RPC service).  Install the Windows Vista driver for the device.

    You can print because print$ access is required for printer drivers.

  • Vista problem: "failed to connect to the windows service, Windows cannot connect to the system event.

    I have reported this problem on my PC at home that connects to the internet. My laptop runs Vista Home Premium and I can't connect to the internet. I took my laptop on a trip, tried to connect to the wireless network that was free to the place we are. Could not connect, and after this initial test, the following is displayed after the start of "failed to connect to the Windows Service, Windows cannot connect to the system event notification service. This problem prevents limited users to logon to the system. As administratvie user, you can view the system event log to see why the service did not respond. "(have no idea how or what it means) when I go to the task bar you want to connect to a network, it is said:" the dependency service or group could not start"and if I go ahead and press"connect to a network"it says it can't find.  I search for computers on the network (who I'm sitting next to) and then try to diagnose the problem and it cannot. I have limited knowledge of this type of problem. Anyone have this problem and how to fix it?

    Hi ptkein,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of Windows Vista.

    Option 4: To verify if a third party application is a cause, follow this link (http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode) for this boot to the desktop using the safe mode with networking option and try to install the network. If the problem is resolved, you will need to perform a clean boot by following the steps in the following article to refine the exact source and isolate it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

  • Cannot connect to Windows XP Pro shared printer

    You should see a similar directory structure.  If it returns access denied, you need to enable read on the share permissions of $ print XP which is the default configuration.

    If you have not run the network configuration wizard XP make sure you run this tool.

    Yes, something has changed the security settings on the print sharing $.

    Since you're under XP Pro, you can reset it and allow all the world read access.  Do a right click my computer / manage / shared folders / sharing / right click $ Print properties/sharing permissions

    Administrators and power users have full access to everything the world group should be there with read access.  I guess that the Everyone group is missing.
