If your Event Log contains the subject event, the Scripts value in the registry, that points to the physical location of the NetLogon share, may be corrupt.

To fix the problem:

1. Use Regedt32 to navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesNetlogonParameters.

2. In the right-hand pane, select the Scripts value name and delete it.

3. Shutdown and restart your computer.

4. Use Regedt32 to navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesNetlogonParameters.

5. On the Edit menu, Add Value name Scripts, as a type REG_EXPAND_SZ.

6. In the String Editor, type the path to the NetLogon share, %SystemRoot%System32ReplImportScripts.

7. Click OK and exit the registry editor.

8. Shutdown and restart your computer.

NOTE: If you type an incorrect path, you will likely get:

Event 5706Netlogon could not create share c:winntsystem32replimportscripts. The Following error occurred: The System could not find the path specified.
