RSAT - Terminal Services Desktops snapin won't initialize
I've run into a problem with 7 that will stop me from running it. I"m guessing this is a problem with how RSAT installed as I've heard many other users that are running RSAT on 7 with no problems. When I try to open the "Desktops" plugin in RSAT I get an error "MMC cannot initialize the snapin". Anyone know all the files this uses, maybe I can check and be sure all are the right version.??? I know it uses tsmmc.mmc mstsmmc.dll.

Hi, Can you confirm that you are using the RSAT for Windows 7, which can be found here ? I just wanted to make sure that you did not have the other RSAT for Windows Vista installed.Jabez Gan [MVP] - http://www.msblog.org Contributing Author for: (Sybex) MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure Configuration Study Guide: Exam 70-643

Thanks! Yes, that's what I'm using. Everything else I've tried in RSAT seems be working fine just not the Desktops snapin
