Hi All,

I have identified the issue. The issue is that i had upgraded the IFilter 9 to 11. So i feel this will not work.

So i uninstalled Ifilter 11 then removed the location from Path from Environmental variability, Rebooted the Exchange 2010 SP3 Server.

Then i performed a clean installation and it worked.

So what i understand is Upgrade is not supported. Uninstalling 9 and then rebooting and then Installing 11 works.
