Copilot in PowerPoint with Organizational Brand Images coming soon

Copilot in PowerPoint with Organizational Brand Images coming soon Microsoft is about to improve Copilot in PowerPoint by making it possible to connect it to your organization's brand images. Or at least connect to either Organizational Asset Library (OAL) in Microsoft SharePoint or Templafy Library (a third-party solution) for integrating brand images. The connection requires some configuration on the admin side, but none is required if the default image option in PowerPoint is good enough. This feature will require the user to have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license and will work with PowerPoint for Windows desktop, Mac desktop, and PowerPoint for the web.

Installing OCS 2007 R2 on Windows 2008 R2

#OCS #WindowsServer #Powershell

Here is a tip for if you want to speed up the process of installing OCS on a Windows 2008 R2 server.

The installation wizard and guide is made for previous OS's, and is not capable of detecting or installing all of the features you need (.net framework beeing one of them). Also, I realized all the tech blogs I came across on google suggested to use the servermanagercmd.exe to add some of the prerequisites. servermanagercmd is depreciated, and I suggest you use Powershell in Windows 2008 R2.

So, before even thinking of starting the OCS setup, you should concider running the following commands in powershell (as administrator):

import-module servermanager
web-windows-auth,web-mgmt-compat,web-mgmt-console,web-http-logging,msmq-server,msmq-directory,rsat-addc,was-process-model,was-config-apis,NET-Framework-Core,Desktop-Experience -restart

So far, so good, but now I,m stuck with a new error: 0x80070534 "No mapping betweein account names and security IDs was done. This error is registered on the "setting NTFS rights" section in the error report. Anyone got an Idea?
