AD RMS Client 1.0 (MSDRM) fails to open expired content

View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

When using a third-party file protector written for the Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) client 1.0, when configured with an explicit expiration date expired content fails to open. When a super user attempts to open encrypted expired data, DRMCreateLicenseStorageSession fails with return type E_DRM_INVALID_LICENSE.

Cause

The AD RMS Client v1.0 (MSDRM) does not attempt to retrieve a use license from the AD RMS server for expired content.

Resolution

This is resolved in the AD RMS Client v2.0 (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29892). This version of the client (MSIPC) communicates with the AD RMS server even in cases of expired content.

More Information

In a scenario where super users cannot open expired protected content with the AD RMS Client v1.0, a hotfix is available. Please contact Microsoft Technical Support to obtain this fix.
