Hi Rick,
First let me say that I continue to be blown away by the depth of your
knowledge!!
I do think it is related. What we are seeing is in relation to Pnagent
issues in that the TSCUPGRD.EXE process puts the system into install mode
and imposes one users settings on all future users. Perhaps the issues you
raised is the reason it does not go back into execute mode. We will look
into that...
Thanks again for the oustanding input....

Hi Steve,
Wonder if that's the same feature as with ctfmon on Windows Server 2003.
Winlogon expects any process it's initialized to die before it will close
the logon process, and change the session back into execute mode.
Ctfmon doesn't of course die, so that leaves the administrators session in
"install" mode.
Made for some really interesting times on a site where they had a bunch of
domain admins all using their admin accounts for normal use.
Got a hotfix from Microsoft, KB826821 that fixed the issue with ctfmon.
Regards,
Rick

Hmmm, let me see....
Just in case anyone on any Microsoft OS in the future who happened to
have used Terminal Services clients at one time AND retained those
settings would automatically upgrade? Never mind the fact that the
process puts the sytems in change user /install mode !!
Remember the Monty Python skit about Mosquito hunting with a cannon???

Interesting, thanks... Any ideas as to why Microsoft put it in the
RunOnce key of the Default User? (I'm willing to settle for 'lack of
common sense')

Hi Steve,
I've had a look at the code in the executable. It's not a guess ;-)

Rick,
Are you sure about that, or, is that a guess? It is causing some
significant issues on a current project and all known good info is
appreciated.....

Hi Michael,
Try Terminal Server Client UPGRaDe.
Appears to delete old TSC/RDP client and migrate connection settings etc
to the existing version.

It's a mystery to me; it seems to be a custom setup file by Microsoft.
Perhaps it is used to properly set up the user's environment in a TS
session. The file shows to be from MS, but there is no info out there
on what it does.

Hello,
Does anyone know what the file tscupgrd.exe does? It is
executed when a user gets a new profile (It's located in the Default
User's hive, executed from the RunOnce key)
