export-mailbox crashes powershell
We are running Exchange 2007 SP1. I wanted to export a mailbox to a pst today so I used the export-mailbox command in Exchange Powershell on my PC which is running Vista Ultimate (32 Bit). When I execute the command powershell immediately crashes. Doing the same command on an XP machine works. Has anyone run into issues with Vista and that cmd in powershell?Todd

Hi Todd, Give full permission on below registry to the user account explicitywhich you are using while moving mailbox, reboot the machine and check. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ Software\Microsoft\Exchange\Exchange Migration If that doesnt work then you may need to run a RegMon trace while simulating the export-mailbox powershell crash and check for any error in the trace report.

I didn't have the "Exchange Migration" key so I created it. That seems to have worked. Thanks!

This is a UAC issue. Open PowerShell as Administrator and it should work fine.Kyle

Kyle - thanks - this simple approach seems to "fix" a lot of other "problems" in Win7. Personally I've never seen the benefit of UAC but who am I to judge!
