WVD Issue -Explorer Constantly Crashing and Restarting
- Jul 15, 2020
Mark Aldridge Hi Mark, I'm seeing the same issue occur every now and then. It's caused by the Windows Search service. If you restart this service the issue stops (you don't need to restart the host and you can restart the service with everyone else logged on).
I've had to created a scheduled task to restart this service at logon. Far from ideal though. I assume it's yet another bug in Win10 2004...
On top of a major bug in FSLogix (which breaks OneDrive Files on-Demand) I'm getting pretty fed up with Microsoft right now.
PieterWigleven Hi Pieter, I am still not seeing it, there were some updates as you can see from the image I have uploaded, however after installing those and restarting it is now showing as "You're up to date" Any other ideas??
Cheers
Adam
Adam1970 I'm not sure why the 10C update isn't offered, it should be once you're up-to-date and you manually go hit the update button. You can also download it manually by going to the Microsoft Update Catalog and search for it (direct link here).
You may need to download the Windows Server version due to the way win10 multi-session identifies itself.
Hope to hear from you whether this helped.

Before they move into production WUfB policies are defined. I have just checked a pre-production and its local group policy no settings are configured. In your screenshot there is even a hold date configured so something historically must have set it. Maybe run rsop.msc on the server to see what GPO that is coming from if it is.

Dale Hayter Thanks for the swift reply fella, do you have any hosts in production? I ask as I see it on the 2004 host, which are still in dev but also on the production 1909 hosts as well, I am just trying to work out when it was set, it is not something I have gone in and implicitly set, and there is no reference to that local GPO in any of the optimise/finalise scripts I run so wondering if it is turned on by default??

Adam1970 Nope. This particular farm we haven't deferred any updates as not in production yet. At least you know why you are not getting the update...

Dale Hayter Hi Dale, so all the hosts I have checked both 1909 and 2004 have the attached policy set, which has a 30 day deferral for any quality updates, it is a local policy and not something I have set, I wondered if the optimise script I use could have set it but I cannot find any reference to it, so I was wondering if it was a default policy set for the multi session image used for WVD?? Did you have it set??
Thanks in advance

Dale Hayter Hi Dale, yeah it looks like we have there is a local GPO set for it, no idea where is has come from though as I did not set it and there is no domain GPO set, thanks for the heads up though mate 🙂
Kind regards

Adam1970 It appeared on one of our WVD farms ok. You dont have any deferral periods defined for quality updates do you?

PieterWigleven Hi Pieter, the 10c update never showed so I did a manual install, hopefully this will resolve the issue with Windows Explorer restarting, I will let you know on here if not, many thanks for your help.
Kind regards
Adam.

Adam1970 any luck? Curious to hear if you managed to find the update and seeing any changes.
