New Year, New Momentum: Here are three Copilot updates to get you started into 2026

on
It's a new year, so I thought I'd start the year by mentioning three features already released, or soon going to be released. One of the features improves the workflow of sharing files with comments, the other improves the application specific Copilot, and the last feature makes it easer to find the nest available timeslot for a 1:1 meeting. As with all of my other posts, timelines can shift, and the timelines in this post is as written in the Message Center at the time of posting. AI-Summary experience when sharing files. With this new feature, copilot intent to help users share files with clearer context in just a few steps. Users will get the capability to generate a concise summary of a file and include it when sharing from the File Explorer share dialog or the OneDrive activity center.

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?
