PSTools psexec

Has anyone experienced issues with PSTools psexec not working after a
P2V using SCVMM? I have converted 4 hosts and none of them will start
the PSExec service after conversion. Haven't found much on the web to
explain why. None of the hosts have any software restriction type of
apps running. I get the error:

%1 is not a valid Win32 application.

and the service fails to start. I have verified the path, I enclosed
the path in quotes. Copied the PSEXESVC from another server, all to no
avail. PSinfo does seem to work as does psservice, but not psexec.

Any hints?

Re: PSTools psexec

This sounds like an association problem. (Just kinda shooting in left field
here) but you may want to check your file assoctiation in windows.
