In Windows 2008 and Windows 2012, when SpamFilter is running as a service its GUI windows will be displayed in a special isolated session in Windows. In order to display windows in this isolated session, the "Interactive Services Detection" Windows service must be running on the server. In Windows 2012 Microsoft has made it a bit more difficult to start that service. The following registry change will allow you to start "Interactive Service Detection" on Windows 2012:
Why won't the Interactive Service Detection service start on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012? Attempting to start the Interactive Service Detection (UI0Detect) service on Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 can fail with the incomprehensible "Error 1: Incorrect function" message:
This is because Microsoft has disabled interactive services in these new operating systems! Fortunately, it is easy to re-enable interactive services by editing the registry:
- http://dottech.org/76670/how-to-launch-regedit-in-windows-8/" rel="nofollow - Start the registry editor ("regedit.exe")
- Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows on the left side
- On the right, double-click the NoInteractiveServices entry and change its value from 1 to 0
- Click OK to record your change
- Close the registry editor
The Interactive Service Detection service should start properly after this change.
