In Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 the task has the option "Open File Location" I don't know when this feature was added quite sure server 2005 and XP did not have this. For older systems sysinternal's process viewer has this feature. SQLCMD.EXE is available in the cmd path by default so just run it and see where it is. 2. dir /s filename is more reliable and faster than windows search for finding files.

When you generate the conference using the toolbar in Outlook, it should open up a generic invitation email. That email has a link to download the client from Microsoft so the user can install it on their PC. This is only required the first time they join a meeting. Nope, just the Live Meeting client.

]]> Comment on Remove Exchange 2007 Public Folder Database Forcibly by Graham http://www.joejohnson.name/?p=100&cpage=1#comment-1190 Graham Sat, 21 Aug 2010 16:46:03 +0000 http://www.joejohnson.name/?p=100#comment-1190 Thanks for confirming what needed to be deleted. I had a feeling that I was going to be visiting ADSIEdit again when I had problems removing Exchange. No corruption as such, just removing a backup machine which had previously had replicas on. All sorted now, at least once I'd killed the runaway powershell process at the end of the de-install so that would finish. Thanks for confirming what needed to be deleted.
