Hello gc,

you can script this because the program take also parameters for import and export. Something like that could do the trick:
For more parameters start the program with the "-help" parameter.

# Filter here for more, like user names or organizational units
$Mailboxes = get-mailbox -Filter {RecipientTypeDetails -eq "UserMailbox"}
Foreach ($Mailbox in $Mailboxes)
{
 	# Depending on the number of mailboxes you maybe want to do a Start-Sleep
	Start-Process -FilePath .\CategoryManager.exe -ArgumentList "-Mailbox $($Mailbox.PrimarySMTPAddress) -import D:\CategoryManager\export.xml -user ""admin@contoso.de"" -password ""Pa$$w0rd"" -impersonate" -Wait -NoNewWindow
}

Hey @xedoc64, Thank you very much for your answer and sorry for not getting back to you earlier...crazy times :/

I just checked the script but it doesn't seem to work. I tried to execute only the Command as follows :

.\CategoryManager.exe -mailbox "user@domain.com" -import .\categories.xml -allowredirection -user "admin@contoso.com" -password "Pa$$w0rd" -impersonate -cleareimport

And i get the same error, with the script and the only the command: Error on creating the service. Check permissions and if the server is avaiable.

Do you have any idea where this comes from? The Credentials are working if i push it over the GUI Application.

Thank you and best wishes!
