My Windows Update service on one a w08r2 x64 box told me that I had an update.

So I checked and discovered that it was KB967723.

I ran the install but it failed with error code 80070490

After trying various solutions (such as turning off the Windows Update service and moving the log files) I finally manually downloaded the problematic file and installed it. No more problems. I don't know what was the issue - was it snagging the x86 version? was it getting the Vista one? Whatever triggered it, this resolved it.

We recently had a case where a user moved a folder into another folder expecting that the permissions in the parent folder would automatically roll on down. Of course they did not, when you copy WITHIN a volume it maintains its original perms.

What was really interesting is what happened when we tried to use the ole 'Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permission from this object'. Although the user was copied down, the perms were not. The user DID NOT get the inherited perms on the sub objects.

You have to dig to find the correct checkbox.

• Open up the properties for the parent folder
• Selected "Advanced"
• Select "Change Permissions"
• Make sure "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" is checked.
• Click on the user/group that you want to push the perms down for and select the "Edit" button
• Make sure that the "Apply these permissions to objects and/or containers within this container only IS CHECKED (note it is not checked in my image)
• Click 'OK' till you are done...

I am cross referencing this to Visual Studio 2008 since I first ran into this trying to connect to the remote website. I got yelled at:

When I looked I found that it had been installed and even approved to run:

So I right clicked on the Website, choose All Tasks, and Configure Server Extensions 2002

I got yelled at, AGAIN!

This looked a LOT more serious. But luckily some web browsing gave me an hint. What you did not see was that the Microsoft Sharepoint Adminstration site was stopped.

So I started it up, and voila!
