    Server 2008 32bit or 64bit - Predefined applications that use the explorer shell do not work, Such as “Printers and Faxes”, “Network Connections” and “Control Panel”. All other Predefined applications that have the .cpl extension function properly.

    Have tested server 200864bit using WOW64/explorer, publishedexplorer, and explorer and 200832bit using both explorer or published explorer... running any predefined applications that uses the explorer shell gives the error :
