Clearing .NET Temp Files

Additionally, clearing the ASP.NET Temp folder has been known to remedy some unhandled exception errors such as the getconnectionobjectsbygroups error. Often times if policy or permissions changes have been made to an AD  on a server that has been up for a long time, it will be necessary to manually flush the temporary files that hold ephemeral data pertaining to how GlobalSearch interfaces with IIS and .NET. To do this:

1. Open command prompt as an administrator

2. Run the command: iisreset /stop

3. Browse to C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\Temporary ASP.NET Files in the windows files explorer

4. Clear the temp folders in this location that pertain to GlobalSearch

5. Run the command: iisreset /start
