Can't import DSInternals about dsinternals HOT 9 CLOSED

That's too bad. It seems like if the 64-bit PS was trying to load the 32-bit library instead of the 64-bit one, which is strange.

What does $env:PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE resolve to when this problem appears?

Are you running PowerShell 64-bit or 32-bit (x86)? Could you please try the other one on your Win7 64-bit?

Could you please try the same with a previous version of DSInternals? I switched to VS 2017 + Win10 build machine before creating the most recent release and I did not have enough time to test it on all downlevel systems.

i am using PS 64-bit, i printed the variable interopAssemblyPath and env:PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE below

i tried the version 2.20 and now I can import the module with no error message.

it runs perfectly! amazing tool! thanks for your help

from dsinternals.

i think it would be good if the function to remove LMHash and LMHashHistory could be added and it is the task which i am focusing on actually

from dsinternals.

@kennethkc LMHash is a completely different story. The only supported way of deleting it is by setting the appropriate policy and changing the password. I could only imagine that the hash could be deleted by direct manipulation with the ntds.dit file. I you think that would be useful to you, feel free to file a separate feature request.

@kennethkc I have just pushed a new release. Could you please try it in the same way as you did previously?

I got another error for running with v2.21.1.zip

Hi @kennethkc , could you please double-check that all the files (and specifically those 2 DSInternals.Replication.Interop.dll) are "unblocked"?

from dsinternals.

my apologies for missing to unblock the files. i can import the module successfully with v2.21.1.
thanks for your time and effort!
