Microsoft Lingering Object Liquidator (LoL) "Failed to create event log subscription to target DC".

I am trying to run the Lignering Object Liquidator (LoL) on my Domain Controllers. But some DC's are Server Core and don't have .Net installed. So I have to run it on a DC with a GUI and connect to the DC with server core.

But then I found this error message: "Failed to create event log subscription to target DC".

win rmquickonfig

reports WinRM is already set up for remote management on this computer.

So I tried turning off the firewall altogether:-

Set-NetFirewallProfile -Profile Domain,Public,Private - Enabled True

And run the LOL again.  That worked!

Of course don't forget to turn the firewall back on again immediately afterwards.

If you try and restore a user, and un-delete their OneDrive, you run into a problem as restoring the account atomically creates a new empty OneDrive. Restoring gets you this error:- Restore-SPODeletedSite : A site collection with the same Site Id or Path already exists. You have to permanently delete the new empty OneDrive account, then restore then old deleted one back:- To delete permanently the newly created (empty) site:- Remove-SPOSite -Identity https://xxxxxx-my.sharepoint.com/personal/xxxxxxxxx To restore the automatically deleted (full) site:- Restore-SPODeletedSite -Identity https://xxxxxx-my.sharepoint.com/personal/xxxxxxxxx
