Resolution : Remove stale Active Directory objects Stale objects can prevent the MSMQ Service from operating properly. Deleting stale objects may solve this problem. However, deleting a computer object in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) can cause problems on the client computer. Before deleting the computer object, make sure that no services running on the client computer will be affected. In this case, deleting the Message Queuing Active Directory object will delete public queues on that computer.
