When I browse Shared Folders/Open Files on the domain controller, I see lots of users that have not released kix32.exe. About half of users in the office. Cannot figure out why. All users are running same OS (Windows 7) and same script - there is only one script for the entire office. THANKS

We have the same problem since months. The problem is with Startup-/Logon-Scripts from GPO and Logon-Script for Users.
For our students we habe about 300 Win7-64vit PCs, which only use the Startup-Script ( cmd ) which started a KIX-Script. Every mornning we have some PCs which have kix32 opened every time, and othe PCs chaning each day.
But its not a KIXtart-Problem. It must be something like timing or so.
For testing I create a special Script:
%0\..\EVENTC /T success /SO poolstest /ID 99 /L application /D "pingtesta" > nul: ping 127.0.0.1 -n 2 -w 1000 > nul %0\..\pingtest.exe 127.0.0.1 -n 18 -w 1000> nul %0\..\EVENTC /T success /SO poolstest /ID 99 /L application /D "pingteste" > nul: eventc is a copy of eventcreate; pingtest.exe a copy of Win7-ping.exe.
With pingtest you got a sleep/wait time of n seconds.
If n gt 15 or so all the 300 pcs has testping opened. Between 1 an 10 seconds only a few pcs has kix32 opend.
I looked for settings and special GPOs but unitl now; no solution.
For a workaround I changed the startup-script:
\\naf2.uni-trier.de\domaincomputers\netlogon\kix32.exe \\naf2.uni-trier.de\domaincomputers\netlogon\updates\pools.kix
And now only one pc has the trouble !!!!!
NAF2 is not a windows server; is a Netapp-Filer!!!!

I found something new. On 2 DCs I disabled SMB2. Now no open kix32.exe where found. Can this a problem with sm2 function durable_handle? But I didn't find a Reg-Key to disable only this function.

Hi,
after more testing. I found that starting from our Netapp-Filer the problem was gone. On the filer the option: cifs.smb2.durable_handle.enable was disabled. After disabling smb2 on DCs kix32.exe also not opened.
From a german AD maillinglist i got the answer to test the following registry key: HKLM\System\CCS\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters Type: REG_DWORD Name: DisableLeasing Value: 1
After setting this key on all DCs tomorrow only 3 PCs ( from 300 ) holds kix32 open.
