Hello,
I have a Windows 8 Pro machine that is joined in an AD domain. The domain functional level is “Windows Server 2008 R2”. When I run gpupdate on the Win8 computer the execution is simply stacked on "Updating policy" and after 5 minutes it fails. When I go to the event view the event ID is 0 and the error is
The description for Event ID 0 from source gupdate cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer. If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event. The following information was included with the event: Service started
However if I logoff/logon and check I see that the gpupdate was successful. So it fails only when I manually invoke it from the cmd. Can someone please help and advice.
Thank you!
