Uninstalling K1000 agent breaks InfoPath form
Noticing that uninstalling KBOX agent (7.2 or 8.1) we are unable to create SharePoint documents. Can reproduce easily, install client, infopath form works, uninstall client, infopath form immediately breaks.
I do not understand it, if I din't see it with my own eyes. Uninstall KBOX client, bam, InfoPath broken.
Have a case open with Quest, have a case open with Microsoft.
Sending an SOS in a bottle...

At first I would do the following:
1. export the registry when all works
2. do the problematic step (uninstall the agent)
3. export the registry when it is broken
4. compare the registries
I assume a Winlogin Hook is set and needed and when the KACE agend uninstalls itself the Winlogin is set to the default value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Microsoft > Windows NT > Current Version > Winlogin

Nico will test, any suggestions on a reg compare tool? - dragonfligh 6 years ago
Those are not related at all.... Unless..... You are pushing some script with the KACE agent to mess around or update the hosts file... or something related to that... a Registry key maybe?
Infopath and the KACE agent are 100% not related, removing a KACE agent should not affect an Online based tools, like I said unless the agent is pushing something vital... but that would not make any sense either... since push and scripts are normally one time job.
Is this happening to one or multiple machines?
Go to IMGUR and upload a screenshot please (remove any sensitive data) - Channeler 6 years ago
I will subscribe to see what the outcome is...
Amount of computers affected?
Could you please let us know what exactly happens to InfoPath? - Channeler 6 years ago
But Maybe the microsoft guys could help us to determine what application or add-ins, or processes are involved... to make that error message pop-up. - Channeler 6 years ago
