But, I'm still getting this message during the Easy Transfer. Your request cannon be complete because the Windows Live ID service could not be found or did not respond.
The service might be experiencing technical difficulties or you may need to adjust your network settings. Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro? Windows Client. Sign in. United States English. Ask a question. Quick access. If you try to run the LiteTouch. Please run as a local administrator. So the story goes like this: in order to run the script, you need to launch it under a user that has local admin rights on the workstation.
Ouuuu Adrian you say! Here is what I do. I create a user, give that user local admin rights on all the workstations I want to migrate then send an email to the users:. What harm can the user do with this? If you think you will have problems with this, you can further restrict it, by denying permissions to this account to log in to any computer.
Any way, is your choice, I told you there will be drawbacks with this method. To be able to run the script under a user account, type this line in a Run window:. Off course, replace the credentials and the script path with your own.
The Microsoft Deployment Toolkit wizard will launch, and it will need a few minutes to process the rules. Inside this folder is the USMT capture state data. After the Windows 7 installation is complete the MDT wizard pops-up and starts restoring users data.
This is because the system is logged in with the local administrator account. Just log off then log back in with the domain user account, and all your data should be back, but this time on a Windows 7 system. I have successfully created the image using MDT but if the machien has parition it wipes it completely and creates single parition where the OS is installed.
I have tried below options 1. Disable teh Format and Partition step. During migration MDT formats only the active partition and leave the other ones alone if not advised otherwise. Did you change something at the format step in the task sequence? I have an issue i do not understand. I migrated about 40 systems now without problems but have 2 laptops now with the following error:.
The system cannot find the file specified. Litetouch deployment failed. Failed to run the the last action :Apply Windows PE execution of task sequence failed…………………………………. I have this only with two systems at the moment.
Googling this issue was not succesfull at this time. Let's look at the single PC tools first. Zinstall is more elegant, preserving your entire XP desktop inside a virtual machine that runs underneath Windows 7, and you have access at the touch of a button. PC Mover makes the in-place migration permanent to Windows 7, so you no longer have access to your original XP environment once you are finished.
PC Mover is more reliable -- in our tests we had trouble getting a stable machine with Zinstall, where our disk wouldn't boot up after we were finished. That didn't inspire confidence, no matter how elegant the original idea behind the product. The pain threshold is at ten desktops: fewer and you are probably better off using the single PC tools. This is because the four mass migration products require some learning curve and experimentation, particularly if you have a diverse hardware base of PCs that you want to upgrade.
And who doesn't have a diverse hardware base these days? There are also two tools to help you assess whether your PC inventory will be more or less ready to migrate to Windows 7, including a free Systems Management utility from Viewfinity which can be very useful and Microsoft's own Upgrade Advisor which isn't. The four automated deployment tools all work with broad similarities.
Basically, you aren't really keeping XP around, just the hardware it is running on and some copy of the original data. The trick is preserving enough of its user footprint to make it feel like home.
The entire machine is reimaged with Windows 7 -- just without you having to sit in front of it while the bits are put on the machine from a standard install DVD. The four tools all start out with a fresh copy of Windows 7 as a master image. Next, they stir in the particular applications that you want to deploy across your enterprise.
