Fbreseal.exe doesn't remove itself

[Rob]

Hi,

According to doc's fbreseal.exe ought to remove itself when it has run.
When I start fbreseal, after a few seconds the prompt appears that the
image it resealed, it reboots, but then the executable is still there.

I have EWF disabled, so that can't be the cause.

Sometimes when I re-run fbreseal, the executable disappears, but more
often it just stays where it is.

What could explain this behaviour? Has it anything to do with the
90-day
trial license limit?

Rob,

Are your playing with SP1 or SP2?

AFAIK, fbreseal doesn't work stable in SP2. A bunch of issues have been reported about the SP2 version of the tool:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...blic.windowsxp.embedded&q=fbreseal+SP2&qt_g=1

I didn't see any MS QFE that fixes any problems of the SP2's fbreseal.

It uses SP2.

The fact that it doesn't work reliably for a long time now worries
me - does it work at all? I.e, when I have multiple XPe systems
connected to the same network, can I except issues with SID's
or does this part of fbreseal still work OK? The delete I can do
myself ;-)
