    The tool worked fine until this update was installed. I am now getting this error when I launch the shell:

    GetComputerSite : Exception calling "GetComputerSite" with "0" argument(s): "Configuration system failed to initialize"
    At C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\bin\ConnectFunctions.ps1:164 char:92

    Failed to connect to an Exchange server in the current site.

    Does anyone know what can be done to rectify this? We are running a hybrid deployment with Exchange 2010 SP3 and O365 and I would like to keep using the tool on my desktop computer.

    Note the Management Console appears to be working fine.

    Hi Fuzzy,

    In official document, it's not supported to install Exchange 2010 management tool on Windows 10, details see:

    The following table identifies the operating system platforms on which each version of Exchange can run. Supported platforms are identified by an X character.

    I've been getting the same results as you, and I read elsewhere that neither the console or the shell are supported on Windows 10. Oh well.

    I understand that EMS 2010 on Windows 10 is not supported, but thats not statisfying ;-)

    So a collegue and I did some investigations and found an easy solution:

    Deleting C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe.config fixed it (powershell.exe.config is owned by TrustedInstaller so you have to take ownership if you want to delete it).

    I have no idea if deleting that config file has other sideeffects.

    "Deleting C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe.config"

    Thank you! That fixed it for me as well. :)

    The only setting in that file appears to be: <add name="http" genericUriParserOptions="DontUnescapePathDotsAndSlashes"/>

    Probably some kind of security enhancement that breaks the older scripts.

    I just migrated a couple PCs from Windows 1607 to 1709 and this broke.

    lucky me I found this after a day of looking... what I did is to rename the current one to powershell.exe.config_OLD

    go to the windows.old file > find the config file on the same path and do a copy and paste on the new path.

    Solved the issue.

    Thank Austrian Bossfan

    Perfect!  Now I can use all of my management tools on Windows 10, 1803.  Nonetheless, that is an MSFT fail.  The Exchange 2010 SP3 console and shell worked perfectly until the 1709 update.
