Resolve

Delete the files in the tssesdir folder and then restart the Terminal Services Session Broker service

To resolve this issue, do the following:

  • Delete the files in the tssesdir folder.
  • Start the Terminal Services Session Broker service.

To perform these tasks, refer to the following sections.

Delete the files in the tssesdir folder

The tssedir folder is located in the %systemroot%\system32 folder (where %systemroot is the folder in which the operating system is installed, which is, by default, c:\windows).

To perform this procedure, you must have membership in the local Administrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

To delete the tssesidr folder:

  1. On the TS Session Broker server, click Start, click Run, type %systemroot%\system32 and then click OK.
  2. Open the tssesdir folder, and then on the Edit menu, click Select All. 
  3. Press the DELETE key, and then click Yes.

After you have deleted the files in the tssesdir folder, start the Terminal Services Session Broker service. Starting the Terminal Services Session Broker service will create the necessary files in the tssesdir folder.
