Resolution
To resolve this issue, you need to make a change to the CategorizerSettings.config file in the Exclaimer ProgramData directory.
To do this:
- Close the Exclaimer Console.
- Open File Explorer and browse to C:\ProgramData\Exclaimer Ltd\Mail Disclaimers\Configs3 (Version 2.2.8 and higher) or C:\ProgramData\Exclaimer Ltd\Mail Disclaimers\Configs2 (Version 2.2.7 and lower).
- Locate the CategorizerSettings.config file.
- Edit this file using Notepad.
- Locate this line below near the bottom of the file:
<add type="Exclaimer.DirectoryServices.NoOpBackingStore, Exclaimer.DirectoryServices"
name="NoOpBackingStore" /> - Change it to this:
<add type="Exclaimer.DirectoryServices.NoOpBackingStore, Exclaimer.DirectoryServices,Version=<number>, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=1123eb20e0421193"
name="NoOpBackingStore" />
In the above, replace <number> with your own version. For example, 2.2.9
