Burning with nero on remote desktop error

Posted on October 11th, 2007 in Windows Vista by Terp

I use my vista mediacenter to burn data and so on, so i installed nero but when i ran it;

“if you are running nero burning software via windows remote login,you might not be able to access your drives for burning.this is a security restriction from windows”

And i tried to edit some local polices but nothin happend, but i found a temp. solution and thats just to run nero in administrator mode (right click on nero icon, run as administrator) and there is no problem at all!

but if you dont allow you remote desktop users to run things as administrator, i dont have a solution yet..

Update:

 You can edit you group policy to allow this;

Start Group Policy Editor

Go to the Start menu and type in; gpedit.msc
In the left pane of Group Policy Editor, navigate to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Removable Storage Access.
In the right pane of Group Policy Editor, change the value of the Setting, All Removable Storage: Allow direct access in remote sessions, to Enabled.
Exit Group Policy Editor and you should be able to burn a DVD over Remote Desktop now

Explorer Crash When Accessing Control Panel After Nero Installation

Posted on October 10th, 2007 in Windows Vista by Terp

Lo ^^

I installed nero8 on my vista machine and since then i coudnt open the control panel?
i vent to the event viewer from run ( eventvwr.msc ) and saw that it crashed because of this file: neroburnrights.cpl

so .. the easy solution is to just rename the file, its located in the nero dir in my case:
C:\Program Files\Nero\Nero8\Nero Toolkit
or the other solution is to just reinstall nero without the toolkit

i dont know if there is any solution if you want to keep the toolkit, but i should work just fine, you just remove the control panel link for it

Multiple users on remote desktop (without logout!)

i just updated my server to vista mediacenter but i still wanted to remote it with remote desktop, but when i did, i would log my mediacenter out

solution? ofcause.. found this “hack” here

Download Sunmorgus’ hacked Termsrv.dll file HERE (If you’re using Vista HOME PREMIUM, use this link and follow the reg instructions below.)
EDIT 7/24: Thanks to Sunmorgus, here is the new location for the files:
For the 32bit:
http://rapidshare.com/files/44937685/termsrv_new.dll
for the 64bit:
http://rapidshare.com/files/44937686/termsrv64.dll

Now, Vista’s security needs a little massaging to allow you to modify the original termsrv.dll file, found in C:\Windows\System32, so….
Click Start, then type “cmd” in the search box & hit enter. This will launch the Command prompt
Type the following & hit enter: takeown /f C:\Windows\System32\termsrv.dll
Then type this & hit enter (NOTE: Replace USERNAME with YOUR USERNAME!! If your name has a space in it, enclose it with quotes, like “Mike Garcen”): cacls C:\Windows\System32\termsrv.dll /G USERNAME:F
Then go to your Windows Explorer, and go to C:\Windows\System32
Rename the original termsrv.dll to something else, like “termsrv.dll.ORIGINAL”, just in case
*NOTE* If you are unable to do the above, try rebooting into SAFE MODE
Then copy & paste the Hacked DLL you downloaded in Step 1 into the C:\Windows\System32 folder
And voila!
