PSEXEC and Remote Desktop Troubleshooting


If you cannot get onto a machine with remote desktop but can ping the machine then the following should resolve the issue.
PSEXEC the machine with the commandline
Psexec \\machinename cmd
You should now be connected to the remote machine, now launch the following commands:-
reg add "hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\terminal server" /f /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0
\\remotecomputername netsh firewall set service remoteadmin enable
\\remotecomputername netsh firewall set service remotedesktop enable
You should now be able to remote desktop the machine as normal.

Uninstalling Applications Remotely with PSEXEC

PSEXEC the machine with the commandline

Now use WMIC to find the name of the software you would like to uninstall
Wmic product get name
Now use the software name you would like to uninstall in the following command:-
wmic product where name="Dragon Correction Object" call uninstall

Sccm Deploying Problem Driver

Image
Sometimes drivers will not install using sccm's standard driver import so you may have to get a little crazy and create a package that will do the job instead. In this example the problem driver was for AMDA00 Interface device but should work for many other nasty drivers.  Steps to follow to solve the wee issue:- 1. Download driver from windows catalogue if possible, if not what you have will be fine. 2. Import driver manually through compmgmt.msc and selecting to point to driver file manually. 3. Grab driver folder from driverstore in Windows\System32\Driverstore (this will be the new folder by date) 4. Copy driver folder from driverstore to a safe place and delete the driver folder from the driver store. 5. Uninstall driver for problem device so you can test uninstalling and re-installing the driver. 6. Use the following command to install the driver again from the folder you put in a safe place. Pnpuntil.exe /a /i path to .inf file If this works

If you dont then download the components you need, in my case I required .Net 4.0. I downloaded the dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe file and added to my Trueview package under the folder "3rdParty\NET\4\wcu\dotNetFramework\dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64" You now have all the components you need to complete the install, all that is left to do is create a .bat file to run the .Net 4.0 component then the actual Trueview 2012 install.
