RDSh Server: Windows 2008 X64 R2 Enterprise (patched to date)
RDSh server is a VM on Hyper-V (2008 X64 R2 DC)
vWorkspace: 7.6

I have just done a clean build of a Remote Desktop Session Host server. The only applications installed so far is Office 2010 (Sp1 x86) and McAfee (currently disabled). The server is working fine, I can RDP to it and the performance is great, etc ,etc…

However when I install the vWorkspace TS components on it, explore (file explore, start menu, etc) frequently lock up/crash and the login process is very slow (with errors).

If I uninstall the vWorkspace TS components, everything is fine again…

This is what happens on login:

Waiting or closing the program will cause a delay of about 30 seconds before login resumes…

The start menu will load but desktop icons remain missing for a short while.

Clicking on the start menu will show this:

Waiting for it to respond will eventually open the start menu but that’s when the frequent locks occur…

Any ideas?
