I am using Windows NT since Vs3.1 in 1994 and back then I knew pretty much everything about the OS. Now there is just too much stuff to know for a single person. ServerFault to the rescue.

comment Why did robocopy cause my Windows 2012 server to hang last night?
I use either /S, /E or /MIR but not more than one. /MIR should work fine and you don't need /PURGE either. I would also leave the threads (/MT) at the default of 8. 128 seems excessive.

You could check your backups. I backup the history folder every night in addition to the drive backups done by low-level administrators.

I have the same problem using PowerShell Web Access on Server 2012, behind the scenes it also uses PowerShell remoting. Same error.

hmm, open the file: C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\config\administration.config in the second block of the moduleProviders node, do you have a FormsAuthentication entry?

When clicking on the site name in the left tree of IIS Manager do you see the three sections 'ASP.NET', 'IIS' and 'Management' in the middle?

comment Why does my Server Core gets patches for Internet Explorer?
All the bits in Windows that are relying on Internet Explorer components are not available in Server Core. That was the whole point of it (at least one big point).
