We have 2 Windows 7 VMs, the first which wasn't run with the optimization batch provided by VMWare and the other one was. That is the only difference.
Both VMs receive the same GPOs.
1) The VM that didn't have the batch file executed, can automatically create Persona profiles in our CIFS share.
2) The other VM that had the optimization batch cannot create Persona profiles.
I've verified that the VSS and SWPRV services on both VMs are set to automatic startup. Can someone point out which other service is needed in order for Persona to create profiles?
Here's the log of the VM that cannot create Persona profiles:
