“Device Registration Service is not in a valid configuration state”
After running AdfsDeviceRegistration you might encounter this error:
PS C:\Users\pieter.CONTOSO> Enable-AdfsDeviceRegistration
Enable-AdfsDeviceRegistration : Device Registration Service is not in a valid configuration state. Service account
CONTOSO\ADFSUserAccount$ does not have the required access on CN=DeviceRegistrationService,CN=Device Registration
Services,CN=Device Registration Configuration,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com. Ensure that the service
account is granted all rights except Write DACL, Write owner, and Extended write, and try again.
This can be fixed by running the following cmdlet:
Initialize-ADDeviceRegistration
After entering the “Managed Service Account name” – in my case “ADFSUserAccount$” , the permissions will be configured correctly.
Afterwards you can run the “Enable-AdfsDeviceRegistration” cmdlet again.
If this helped you, please consider leaving a reply – thanks!

Yes, that helped. The process changed between prerelease in Windows Server 2012 R2 and RTM. Note that I'm doing this for AD FS, but the process is the same.Anonymous

Thanks that worked! Worth noting that the Managed Service Account is created with a $ appended to the name you specify when installing ADFSAnonymous
