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.
Adam1970 It appeared on one of our WVD farms ok. You dont have any deferral periods defined for quality updates do you?
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
Adam.
- Dale HayterNov 06, 2020Copper ContributorThe host that is not in production does not have any windows deferal settings configured in Domain Group Policy. 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...
