I have 2 new computers. They are HP laptops with Windows 10 Pro & Bitlocker.
On both of them, when I try to install the ComputerConnector, the application crashes after it prompts for the password to the server. The full cycle is: UAC Prompt, Finds Server, Wizard Info, .NET Warning, Enter Password, CRASH.
BTW, it crashes whether I supply the correct password or not.
The ClientDeploy.log gives me the best hope of finding an answer… but I haven’t found anything yet.
Also, there is NO C:\Program Files\Windows Server folder.
Can anyone help?
Here is the part of ClientDeploy.log with the error:
