[Windows server 2016] Registry error upon logon #2

Open tomg1983 opened 6 years ago

tomg1983 commented 6 years ago

At logon, following message box is shown (at least on Windows server 2016, not tested on other systems).

"An error occured opening the Default Desktop registry key. Please ensure the current user has rights to change the Logon Desktop settings: Access is denied."

This even happens with administror users logging in. Bginfo however works otherwise fine, even if Windows server 2016 is not mentioned as supported.

Could you add the /silent parameters to the batch file to surpress error messages? See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/bginfo

Many thanks!

@tomg1983 I am running bginfo on 2008r2, 2012r2, and 2016 with no issue. I am not using this Puppet module, but are using puppet to install and manage bginfo shown here: https://github.com/joeypiccola/control-repo/blob/production/site/profile/manifests/base/bginfo.pp. Trying to think what is differnt enough in @ncorrare module and my bginfo profile to cause an issue for you.
