Hi all,
currently we are expecting some strange problems with our fileserver. It is a Windows Server 2012 server with newest hardware. After one to two weeks uptime, Windows 7 clients cannot load their explorer window. It takes a huge time while the green bar in the address bar is trying to load the explorer overview and finally stops with a blank explorer window.
The shares can still be accessed through UNC commands and the fileserver can be reached with a ping command. This error doesn't occur when opening the explorer window on another server.
On the fileserver I can see a lot of open files called "\msftewds".
I have found an article of microsoft describing this problem but there was no final solution for me:

The only workaround for the moment is to restart the server (what is not that easy because it's productive). After a restart the "\msftewds" files are gone in the open files overview.
Appreciate any help. :)
Best regards
Dennis
