Collect Action Center & Reliability Monitor Events From Windows 7 Clients?
Feb 9, 2012
Is it possible to use Server 2008 R2, a Windows 7 workstation, or some software to collect the events logged in the Action Center on our Windows 7 clients? Also, is it possible to collect the events logged in the Reliability Monitor (View reliability history) from our Windows 7 clients.I am interested in aggregating this information in a central location i.e. on a server/workstation, which our administrators have access to. Is this possible when using System Center Configuration Manager? A smaller scale solution would be preferred as we only have around 120 clients.
Everytime I create a Restore Point, I notice that "Generic Volume Shadow copy" is listed in the Action center. Should I be concerned? I don't remember seeing that listing before.I have a done a couple of System Restore points but none of them show up in the action center as "Generic volume shadow copy."
After 4 days of data the reliability Monitor has stopped working. No entries recorded since 2/12/2009. I did find the WERSvc disabled in the services msc.
However I set the service to auto and started and still no entries in the Reliability Monitor for three days. I do no several apps should have been recorded in that time.
I'm assisting a client that is running a fully patched SBS 2003. 5 computers on domain; 2 are XP, 3 are windows 7 professional 32-bit.
All 3 Win7 PCs are new HP 6200 SFF, fully patched.
The Windows 7 PCs take a long time to boot up.. it's 3 minutes before the login screen comes up, and after authentication its 2 more minutes before the desktop is up. Once logged on, local network browsing is very slow as well (30 seconds to open a small, 1 page PDF for example, from a local network resource). Network is 100MB, so no gigabit, but ping/throughput to the outside world is fine. Files download quickly, external sites come up instantly, the problem is only when booting up, loading the profile, and browsing intranet.
Making this more interesting is the fact that if the PCs are removed from the domain but still physically attached to network, it boots up instantly, logs in instantly, and browswing local network resources (after authenticating to them of course) is instantaneous.
There may be one more more causes, I accept that... I've combed the event log and see some group policy (errors 1501/1502) events that may indicate delay, but they don't show up every time. Also, that wouldn't explain the slow browsing of network resources.
I've done some research (read: googling) and not finding any specific incompatibilities between SBS 2003 and Win7. Could this be a kerberos issue, and if so, how would they resolve it? I believe I've demonstrated it's not a hardware issue since performance is fine if they are off domain, so it seems like it's a delay processing something on startup and then delays while accessing resources on the network that are relying on cached credentials.
Its not working for me,ive followed the tutorial here to a T twice and both times it does seem to work then a while later all the old history is back,and yep thats after deleting inside them folders etc?
I recently had a BSOD, but it does not appear in my Reliability Monitor OR in my Minidump files.It was within that last couple of days.Where can I find out more about this BSOD? Do all BSOD encounters log information someplace, or are some crashes too intense to even log crash reports? I have attached my SF Diagnostic Tool results, but I'm really not sure what good it will do because it is not showing the crash I am talking about. The crash I experienced was within the last few days (although I have regular BSOD experiences that I'm trying to resolve as it is).
Im having a really tough to TS problem with the reliability monitor. For the last week, it no longer displays any data and the graph dosent render.
It just display as blank with no data. Some things to note...
1. The RAC published and State data are being updated and published each day as they shouold. So the data does exist.
2. I have tried the "Resetting RAC" methods that worked for Vista. But the fix dosent work for Windows 7.
3. I cant think of anything that may have changed. I havent deleted any folders or log files.
4. I've used Process Monitor to trace the events when the reliability monitor executes and everything looks fine.
5. There are no errors or warnings in the event viewer.
6. I havent installed any Windows Updates.
So Im hoping that someone can think of something I am missing here. Oddly it used to work for some time and i ran it each day. Then all of a sudden one day it just stopped.
Could this be a permission issue possibly? I do recall changing permissions for C:UsersMeAppData. Are there any folders or logs within that path that might affect RAC? Are there any services that are required for RAC to collect and render data?
I have a Toshiba laptop. Windows 7 operating system. It has a windows "Action Center". I do use the Defender and McAfee.
I was infected a couple of days ago by the Win 7 Security virus. I installed (from a clean computer) and ran the Malwarebytes and Superantispyware over and over again until it was clean.
I noticed my "action Center" seems to not be working. Can't even run the Defender, I get an error message of 0x80070424. I used to get the Windows updates automatically, and that appears to have stopped (although I can manually click "windows update" and get them that way. Oh, and the little white flag that would be in the lower right hand corner is missing (telling me of any problems or messages).
I checked my bitlocker in the services.msc and found it is checked to manual. Is that correct? What can I do to get this back working? Or am I still infected?
I have a HP Laptop high end pavilion and it does the blue screen crash at various times and I cant track down why ie: disc installed, usb ports used etc..The blue screen says its a hardware issue and I have not changed any hardware, its still under warranty. I just have the current updates. When it reboots is says it will look for a reason why it crashed but then nothing..
I just got a new PC yesterday with Win7. The Windows Action Center keeps popping up with a warning asking that I "Choose a Windows Update option." I select "Install Updates automatically," but the Windows Action Center does not remember my selection and then about an hour later will pop back up with the same warning.
I just got this computer last week with Windows 7 already installed on it. I am finding that the choice I make for how to receive automatic updates will get changed to Never Update. I am new to Windows 7 as my old computer had XP, so this Action Center is new to me, and it is getting annoying having to constantly change the settings for my windows updates.
I am using kis 2009 on Windows 7 but I have one message and I am not sure what's the meaning....The message is on picture...so if someone have this problem please report it..
the flag disappears particularly if explorer restarts .i have it set to show icons and notifications ,the funny thing is it does the same on the laptop(currently using desktop)occasionally i can get it back by opening Godmode folder but this is a nuisance and not always successful. on the laptop last night i performed a system restore to a point when it was ok ,it didnt work also ran sfc/scannow ,the flag came back but on reboot it was gone again.
Action Center alerts says that Norton reports that it is turned off and a second one that Windows and Nort6on firewalls are turned off. When I check they are actually on! There is no date information when these alerts were generated and I can't find anywhere to reset the alert or acknowledge it so I don't have the little red X on the flag saying i should check it. I don't want to turn off the alert for these alerts. Of course there is a fundamental question of why the alert is there but until I can determine iof it is a current alert or not I don't know where to start, If I do turn off those alerts then turn them back on, they are still there! Where to reset the alert?
During my bluetooth nightmare i have had 4 messages pop up telling me something isnt working right. these bloody messages are stuck on my screen and i cant get rid of them. Its the white box with the open action center link at the bottom.
Of course a re boot works but thats just stupid, i should be able to dismiss the pop ups. As it is windows cant fix it so its cath 22.
Anyone know what the process is i can kill? End task doesn't work.
I have avast installed on here, but the AC has "solve 1 important message". The AV. Now granted all the talk about how soon ppl think 7 will get out, no way jose is what i say, if they cant even fix small problems with the OS as to recognize it has an AV installed on it. MS has more work ahead of them
anyone else running avast or other AV run into this message?
Also too mention, i find it funny about the (only) 4 particular AV MS advertises for, especially when i've seen and heard problems with Norton and avg
Pls dont give an answer to this thread of how to turn off msg, i know.
I have Oblivion installed, and occasionally the game will crash, as most modern, complex RPGs will do. However, Win7's Action Center pops up and tells me:A newer version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is available for download that might solve this problem. Bethesda Softworks LLC. recommends updating to the latest version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion to take advantage of security and stability improvements.First, the link provided is a dead-end. Second, the game is already updated to the very last iteration provided by Bethesda - 1.2.0416. I also have the UOP and related DLC-patches installed, which might be why Win7 seems.
I had a malware that I got rid of, but it deleted many parts of the registry.I was able to find the missing parts and recover them. Only thing still not working is the action center icon in the taskbar. In the system icon activation screen, the action center activate/deactivate option is greyed out. I checked with gpedit.msc, but nothing is set there. I also tried sfc/scannow but it does not recreate missing registry parts.
I'm not sure this is the right place to post, but, I get a message on start up to turn on action center, this was on before, I think I may have disabled it, and I don't know how to reset it.
After a new build (my first build), I'm getting a whole host of problems. Ran okay for a few days & this is just one problem of many. I have the action centre enabled in my task bar & it just popped up to tell me that I need to install my video card driver. Not sure what the problem is, my gpu is showing up on Speccy & mypcdrivers so not sure if it just needs ignoring or whether it's *another* issue with this build.
Action Centre keeps reporting that my Bull-guard Firewall is turned off. When I check BullGuard is on & working OK. How do I stop this annoyance without turning off the action centre?
My wife has a two month old Lenovo ideapad with Windows 7. We are now getting alerts that the D partition is near full. Is this system taking multipul backups of the harddrive C and storing them all? What are my best options to have a safe backup, but not overloading the D partition? I do see in; Computer>System>Device Manager>Disk Drives>D Drive General tab that there are two options at the bottom. option one, (not checked in my case) "Compress this drive to save disk space". Option two, (checked) "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties" If this system is saving a snapshot of D over and over, it will only be a matter of time when option one will be overcome. SO, I would think that there has to be a setting that will let partition D delete older backups...right?
Would it be a combination of selecting option one and changing a setting that would enable older backups to be automaticaly removed?
I get an error message when I first startmy computer saying, your Catalyst Monitor Control Center has stoppedworking. I don�t know what this is. Sois this something I should fix, or justforget about it? If it should be fixed
I just bought an HP Pavilion dv7-6120sx equipped with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 6770 running Windows 7 home premium. I've been trying to remove the scaling option in the Catalyst Control Center, but it detects no monitor under the Advanced Display Settings
Is there a way to collect all the links on a web page using Windows 7 (and preferably Chrome)?
For example, I want to send a tutoring student a link to all the angles worksheets which are linked to on this page.
Now, I could get each one by right-click, copy address, tab to my email window, and paste. But there are about 36 links I want (and I don't want to send a link to the page, so they don't have to look for what's needed). How can I collect them into one _something-or-other_ which I can paste into an email?
I tried DownThemAll, but it will only download the files. I merely want the links.
