I'm using WindowsAPICodePack to collect metadata properties of a video file. Here is the github repo. internally it returns all the objects as you perform right click on file and see details information and properties. See below screenshot.
I can retrieve all the properties in my windows 10 machine. I expect the same behaviour on windows server 2012 r2 machine. The left side of image is contains properties from windows server and right side contains properties from windows 10 os. I'm unable to find anything relevant? What windows feature do I need to enable from windows server 2012 r2?
I was able to get all those properties after enabling desktop experience as shown in this tutorial. Initially windows server can not play video files. this feature adds video streaming facility and extra features that comes with Windows server essential media pack
There is one more library available if you don't want to install Windows Server essential mediapack. Here is the link and https://mediaarea.net/en/MediaInfo

This is my first time posting a question in StackOverflow. Pls forgive me if I made any mistake.
The condition is such: I have codes inside my laptop that is under source control by a TFS (Team Foundation Server) server in the company and I have a web server which I upload the codes so that user can browse the pages. So there are 3 main items here: the TFS server, my laptop and the web server.
When I try to check in/out between my laptop and TFS server using Visual Studio, no problem.
When I try to use "Copy Web Site" feature in Visual Studio to upload my laptop's code to the web server, no problem too.
However, when I try to use "Copy Web Site" feature in Visual Studio to DOWNLOAD the web server's code into my laptop, then it will says the job is completed, but in actual fact, it has not done anything because the fact is laptop's code is under source control and it cannot overwrite it.
The only solution is I have to "check out" the local laptop's code before I can successfully DOWNLOAD from web server into my laptop. This is very troublesome and annoying if I have many files to DOWNLOAD. Is there another solution to this problem?
Another question is, is there any better way to configure the relationship of these 3 items?
Sorry for such a long question.
I cannot post any images because I don't have the "10 reputation" rights required by stackoverflow.
Thanks
The easiest answer is to use a local workspace, but unfortunately local workspaces aren't an option unless you're using both Visual Studio 2012 and TFS 2012.
The basic problem here is that when you use a server workspace, files are read-only on your file system until you explicitly check them out of source control. Local workspaces don't have that necessity.
The bigger question here is why you want to grab files from the web server. You're using source control. If people are making changes to the code directly in the web server without going through source control, that is a huge problem that should be addressed immediately.
How can I use Windows Indexing service in Windows server 2012? I had used window indexing in windows server 2003 and windows server 2008. I am unable to find window indexing in window server 2012.
On Win2008 and 2012, what you want is "Windows Search Service" (note, "Service" -- that is the key word). This is the current version of index server.
Note that when querying windows index server via ADO driver, there are some small differences in the response structure from Win2003 to Win2008+. It is easy, however, to port ADO / SELECT queries from old index server to new Search Server.
NOTE that there is another Microsoft product, called "Search Server" that is a different animal. You prob do not need that one (it is a discrete download). Search Service is part of the Windows server core, and is what you want as the new / current version of what used to be called "index server." (See below)
On Win7/8 desktop OS, this is installed be default (I believe). On server, you have to enable the feature.
Installing this lets you set up what to index, and gives you the ADO driver. We ported an app from Win2003 Index Server to Win2012 Search Service via this path. Very small code changes were needed to the SELECT and the connection string.
I'm using visual studio 2012 and i have a windows form app. the iis express server is configured by default with visual studio 2012.
I have to publish my windows form app. For that, i have create a storege object on azure platform.
But when i try to publish the project using clickonce i have that issue :
Error 83 The Web server does not appear to have FrontPage Server Extensions installed. If FrontPage Server Extensions are installed, this error can occur because the _vti_bin virtual directory is not marked as executable. To correct this problem, run Internet Information Services Manager, select the Web server that has the problem, and then use the Check Server Extensions command.
Screen shot :

I had no issue during the creation of my storage object on azure, and the URL is good !
I have installed de FrontPage Server Extension several times and normally it's good.
i really need to publish my project, if someone can help me ...
Thanks for help.
You are trying to do HTTP publish to a server that doesn't have FPSE installed. FPSE was no longer available after Server 2008 (I'm guessing here, I just know it's not available for newer versions of Windows Server).
Instead of doing HTTP, use FTP. So you FTP the files to the web server, and use an HTTP link for the customer to access them.
For example, your publishing file location might be
ftp://myserver.com/myfolder/
and your installation URL would be something like
http://myserver/thefolder/
I have created desktop application using visual studio 2010 (C#) connected with database (sql server 2008).
I want to make my application a setup project to install at any operating system (Xp,VISTA and Windows 7) and at different machines including all files like framework,sql server and database files in one exe.
Please help me i need this necessary
Thank you
An useful answer may be is to make a batch file with all the required software and database. When you start the batch, all the application will install.
Hi I want to acces, open "inetmgr.exe" on my Windows 7 machine. But none of the searches are working. ( Start Menu --> Search Program and Files NOR Search in My Computer).
I somehow want to access inetmgr.exe of IIS(InternetInformation Services).
So can anyone kindly let me know the
default location of inetmgr.exe or any
DOS command to access it. I even
tried typing "inetmgr.exe" in command
prompt. But not working. So PLz
somehow I need to access inetmgr.exe.
Thanks in advance.
It should be available in following location:
C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\InetMgr.exe
But when you goto start menu and type inetmgr.exe it should be visible in the list. If not then something wrong with your installation or that file has been deleted.
At first check IIS is installed or not.
For XP
Open Control Panel
Add-Remove Windows Components.
For Windows 7 / Windows Server 2012
Open Control Panel
Programs and Features
Turn Windows features on or off.
I had the same issue. Go into Control Panel -> Programs-> Turn Windows features on or off.
Click on features for Internet Information Services. Specifically, Web Management Tools and Wold Wide Web Services.
For Web Management Tools
->IIS 6 Management Compatibility
->IIS Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility. (or any other features you think you may need)
I had the same problem on Windows Server 2016 with it not wanting to search. IIS Manager (with our normal websites) was showing in the Start menu but IIS 6 Manager was not (where the SMTP Virtual Server settings are located).
Luckily you can launch it from within Server Manager:
Yes, I installed IIS and still couldn't find InetMgr.exe until I went back to
Turn Windows features on or off
and then checked
Internet Information Services
Web Management Tools
IIS Management Console
