Windows Server update Shows black screen of death
Hi all
This morning I have experienced a black screen of death on both my exchange server and domain controller. these are physical servers.
The Servers go on but after the Windows Logo, it just goes dark, no curser and I cant control-Alt-delete.
My suspicions is that it is a update that came through during the weekend.
What I tried.
I cant restore because It didn't set a restore point
I tried fixing the MBR but since it logs through and shows the windows logo that might mean the MBR is intact
tried all safe mode options but nothing.
I am running out of ideas,
So the Question is how do I remove an update from the server if t doesn't want to log in Windows?
your responses will be much appreciated

Server 2016 - suddenly poor VM experience
We are running a 2016 Datacenter server under Azure. The server is primarily an RDS running Office Pro Plus and a couple of SQL backed applications.
Since Monday we've had problems with the user experience, with applications failing to clear down (Chrome was installed, would open once and close but then fail to open again - Chrome process remaining in background.)
The notifications for printing, new emails etc would appear but then fail to close afterwards. Left click on the start button would stop working and user experience was generally poor with noticeable lag on moving items on the screen. This sounds like a Shell type issue.
We have removed Chrome, disabled Skype for Business through GP, dialed down AV. We have run SFC /Scannow which found errors and fixed all except problems with Task Scheduler.lnk
Server is back up and we're waiting for it to happen again. Latest patch KB4489889 is applied, though this came out after the first problem.
What else might I have missed?

RDP Reconnect sending bad password || Windows Event ID 4625: An account failed to log on
Issue: User Logs onto Client Machine remotely, then connects to Corp VPN and does RDP to any Corp machine. In case the VPN disconnects or client machine loses network connectivity momentarily, the RDP session re-establishes the connection. When it re-establishes a connection, it logs a bad password attempt on the users account. If this happens too many times, users are experiencing account lockout.
Upon checing the logs, I see that the Terminal Service is sending the bad password.
Can anyone suggest what could be the possible issue?

Then we clicking "update now" system asking to enter credentials. After the entering domain username and password everything is updating. After this procedure updating works fine 2-4 weeks and then start failing again. Our users required to change password every 3 months. That means password changing can't be the reason of this error.
Maybe it can be related with server rebooting? All RDS farm machines reboots once per month during the server patching
Thanks for help in advance.

RDS2019 - Compatibility --> High DPI settings stop working when RDS role enabled
Hi.
We are rolling out RDS 2019 in our environment. We've got a lot of complaints about the DPI settings not being able to set in the session anymore like in 2008R2, but it has to be done on the local client, which is really cumbersome. However, when done so, we still have some applications with issues.
Now, for most of them I can fix it by setting the compatibility settings:
On a Server 2019 test machine, when set to Application, the application actually shows up fine. On RDS2019 though, it doesn't. I've been working on this for a while, until I installed a machine from scratch, do one step of our installation script at a time, and see where it started failing. It turn out as soon as we enable the RDS role, the DPI settings don't have any effect anymore, and the app is all blurry.
When I remove the RDS role, they start working again. Would anyone know how to fix this?

Start program for RDP users on login on Windows Server 2019
Hi
I recently upgraded from Windows Server 2016 to 2019. On Windows Server 2016 I could define an initial program for the remote user in his usersettings, according to this guide:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/de-DE/c73d0676-baab-4d54-801b-92e3b7e34365/start-program-for-rdp-user?forum=ws2016&prof=required
This apparently does not work anymore.
Is there a new solution for this problem or was the feature completely removed?

RDS 2016 - Start Menu freeze
Hi all,
We're currently experiencing issues at a random interval with regards to freezing start menu's on Server 2016 RDS Hosts.
When the freeze happens we can see the following items in the eventlog: Event ID 5973
Seems to be related on a per user base, as multiple users can connect to the RDS server but only a few of them are experiencing issues.
We are using User Profile Disks and Start Menu redirection. Any thoughts?
"Activation of app Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_cw5n1h2txyewy!CortanaUI failed with error: Not enough storage is available to complete this operation. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information."
"Activation of app Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_cw5n1h2txyewy!CortanaUI failed with error: The RPC server is unavailable. See the Microsoft-Windows-TWinUI/Operational log for additional information."

Old RDP Connections to Windows 2016
I have an issue with old Windows CE devices connecting to an new Windows 2016 terminal server. The old CE devices use the older login where you get connected to the server and then authenticate, as opposed to RDP 6, where is prompts you for credentials.
The CE devices are only 240x320 touchscreens (Old Motorola MC9090 RF guns), so what happens on the display is the username and password field are cut off, and users have a difficult time selecting these fields.
Previous Windows 2008, the login screen had a different orientation, so it was more user friendly for those devices. Any one have any ideas if its possible to rearrange the screen or change resolution on just this screen?
I have tried just about everything and would really be disappointed to have to revert back to 2008 R2, just because of a login screen. Updating or getting new devices are not possible at this time.
I have also tried:
- to auto login the account - i know not secure, but could not get it to work
- remove user profile picture - was not able to get the image removed.
This is a picture of what is displayed:
Thanks for any help on this.

Windows Server 2012 R2 - Remote Desktop Services warning
Hello,
I logged on today on a RDS server to perform some windows updates and i saw a warning that it says "Remote Desktop licensing mode is not configured.
Remote Desktop Services will stop working in 33 days. On the RD Connection Broker server, use Server Manager to specify the Remote Desktop licensing mode and the license server.
Our production/RDS infrastructure consists of 4 vm's
Name Roles
RDS1 -- RDS-RD-SERVER, RDS-GATEWAY
RDS2 -- RDS-RD-SERVER, RDS-CONNECTION-BROKER, RDS-WEB-ACCESS, RDS-LICENSING
RDS3 -- RDS-RD-SERVER
RDS4 -- RDS-RD-SERVER
On the disaster site we have again RDS on 4 vm's and the roles are like this:
RDS1 -- RDS-GATEWAY
RDS2 -- RDS-CONNECTION-BROKER, RDS-WEB-ACCESS, RDS-LICENSING
RDS3 -- RDS-RD-SERVER
RDS4 -- RDS-RD-SERVER
The message does not appear on the disaster site. Only on the production. I believe that someone tried to do something on the production site and messed up the roles. Could someone help me out with this issue?
Thank you in advance!

Load Balancing on RDS Server
So our RDS server is currently windows server 2008 R2, and wanting to migrate or upgrade to a Windows Server 2016
With that being said, as of currently our RDS environment doesnt have a load balancing function so everytime we go on to do a maintenence on oneof the server, we have to tell the user to connect to the secondary
from the next RDS server i want to implement a load balancing function so its a win win for both admin and the user
i did a little research and apparently by building a secondary RD broker server i can achieve this
i wanted to get some advice or help from you guys if its possible on regardain how i would go about this?
i have a lab environment so ican test it out, but i read somehwere that i cannot use SQL expresss in order to achieve the load balancing function
if anyone could give me an insight on how i can achive this it would be more than appreicated!
kind regards.
