To resolve this issue, do the following in the specified order:
Ensure that the registry data is correct.
Reinstall Windows Deployment Services.
To perform these procedures, you must either be a member of the local Administrators group or have been delegated the appropriate authority.
Ensure that the registry data is correct
Caution: Incorrectly editing the registry might severely damage your system. Before making changes to the registry, you should back up any valued data.
To ensure that the registry data is correct:
Open Registry Editor. (Click Start, type regedit in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.)
Ensure that the registry key for the provider that failed exists in the following location:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WDSServer\Providers\<content provider>. Note: The failed content provider is specified in the event log message. To find this message, open Event Viewer, expand Custom Views, expand Server Roles, click Windows Deployment Services, and then find WDSMC event 592.
If the registry key exists in the specified location, do the following:
Ensure that the ProviderDll subkey exists and contains a path to the .dll file.
Ensure that the .dll file exists at that same location. For example, the ProviderDll key for the Windows Deployment Services content provider (WDSCP) is %systemroot%\system32\wdscp.dll.
Ensure that the content provider has the necessary permissions to read the registry keys at the following location: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WDSServer\Providers\WDSMC\Providers\<content provider>. To do this, right-click the WDSServer node, click Permissions, click SYSTEM, and then make sure that Full Control is selected.
If all of this information is correct, restart the WDSServer service (in the Command Prompt window,run net stop wdsserver and then run net start wdsserver).
If the provider key, the ProviderDll subkey, or the file is missing, do one of the following:
If the provider is the Windows Deployment Services content provider (WDSMC), you will need to reinstall Windows Deployment Services by using Server Manager (see the procedure in the following section).
If the provider is a custom or non-Microsoft provider, reinstall it. If that does not fix the problem, contact the vendor for troubleshooting information.
Reinstall Windows Deployment Services
To reinstall Windows Deployment Services:
Open Server Manager (Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Server Manager.)
Under Roles Summary, click Remove Roles.
Click Windows Deployment Services, and then follow the instructions in the wizard.
After the role removal is completed, click Add Roles in Server Manager to reinstall Windows Deployment Services.
