The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SYMPTOMS
After you use Remote Desktop Client Control (Mstscax.dll) to make a remote desktop connection from a Microsoft Windows XP-based computer, the remote desktop session fails. This problem occurs after you apply Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1) or Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) on a client computer.

For example, when you try to connect to a Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 R2-based computer that has Remote Desktop for Administration installed, you receive the following error message:
Remote Admin Connection
Remote Admin Web Connection ActiveX Control could not be installed. A connection cannot be made without a working installed version of the control. Please contact the server administrator.
The remote desktop connection then fails.

CAUSE
This problem occurs when the Mstscax.dll file is not reregistered when the Windows XP service pack is applied.
Back to the top

RESOLUTION
To solve this problem, run the Regsvr32.exe program to reregister the Mstscax.dll file. To do this, click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\mstscax.dll, and then click OK.

Still getting the Error Message?  The Terminal Services Active X control (mstscax.dll) does not match the version of the Client Shell.
