Turn off Tablet PC touch input
Turn off Tablet PC touch inputTurns off touch input which allows the user to interact with their computer using their finger. If you enable this setting the user will not be able to produce input with touch. They will not be able to use touch input or touch gestures such as tap and double tap the touch pointer and other touch-specific features. If you disable this setting the user can produce input with touch by using gestures the touch pointer and other-touch specific features. If you do not configure this setting touch input is on by default. Note: Changes to this setting will not take effect until the user logs off.
Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs. db files
Turns off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs. db files. This policy setting allows you to configure File Explorer to cache thumbnails of items residing in network folders in hidden thumbs. db files. If you enable this policy setting File Explorer does not create read from or write to thumbs. db files. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting File Explorer creates reads from and writes to thumbs. db files.
Turn off the display of thumbnails and only display icons on network folders
This policy setting allows you to configure how File Explorer displays thumbnail images or icons on network folders. File Explorer displays thumbnail images on network folders by default. If you enable this policy setting File Explorer displays only icons and never displays thumbnail images on network folders. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting File Explorer displays only thumbnail images on network folders.
Turn off the display of thumbnails and only display icons.
This policy setting allows you to configure how File Explorer displays thumbnail images or icons on the local computer. File Explorer displays thumbnail images by default. If you enable this policy setting File Explorer displays only icons and never displays thumbnail images. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting File Explorer displays only thumbnail images.
Turn Off UDP On Client
This policy setting specifies whether the UDP protocol will be used to access servers via Remote Desktop Protocol. If you enable this policy setting Remote Desktop Protocol traffic will only use the TCP protocol. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting Remote Desktop Protocol traffic will attempt to use both TCP and UDP protocols.
Select RDP transport protocols
This policy setting allows you to specify which protocols can be used for Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) access to this server. If you enable this policy setting you must specify if you would like RDP to use UDP. You can select one of the following options: “Use both UDP and TCP (default)” “Use only TCP” or “Use either UDP or TCP” If you select “Use either UDP or TCP” and the UDP connection is successful most of the RDP traffic will use UDP. If the UDP connection is not successful or if you select “Use only TCP” all of the RDP traffic will use TCP. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting RDP will choose the optimal protocols for delivering the best user experience.
Select network detection on the server
This policy setting allows you to specify how the Remote Desktop Protocol will try to detect the network quality (bandwidth and latency). You can choose to disable Connect Time Detect Continuous Network Detect or both Connect Time Detect and Continuous Network Detect. If you disable Connect Time Detect Remote Desktop Protocol will not determine the network quality at the connect time and it will assume that all traffic to this server originates from a low-speed connection. If you disable Continuous Network Detect Remote Desktop Protocol will not try to adapt the remote user experience to varying network quality. If you disable Connect Time Detect and Continuous Network Detect Remote Desktop Protocol will not try to determine the network quality at the connect time; instead it will assume that all traffic to this server originates from a low-speed connection and it will not try to adapt the user experience to varying network quality. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting Remote Desktop Protocol will spend up to a few seconds trying to determine the network quality prior to the connection and it will continuously try to adapt the user experience to varying network quality.
Specify default connection URL
This policy setting specifies the default connection URL for RemoteApp and Desktop Connections. The default connection URL is a specific connection that can only be configured by using Group Policy. In addition to the capabilities that are common to all connections the default connection URL allows document file types to be associated with RemoteApp programs. The default connection URL must be configured in the form of http://contoso. com/rdweb/Feed/webfeed. aspx. If you enable this policy setting the specified URL is configured as the default connection URL for the user and replaces any existing connection URL. The user cannot change the default connection URL. The user’s default logon credentials are used when setting up the default connection URL. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting the user has no default connection URL. Note: RemoteApp programs that are installed through RemoteApp and Desktop Connections from an untrusted server can compromise the security of a user’s account.
Enable RemoteFX encoding for RemoteFX clients designed for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
This policy setting allows you to configure graphics encoding to use the RemoteFX Codec on the Remote Desktop Session Host server so that the sessions are compatible with non-Windows thin client devices designed for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. These clients only support the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RemoteFX Codec. If you enable this policy setting users’ sessions on this server will only use the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RemoteFX Codec for encoding. This mode is compatible with thin client devices that only support the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RemoteFX Codec. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting non-Windows thin clients that only support the Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RemoteFX Codec will not be able to connect to this server. This policy setting applies only to clients that are using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) 7. 1 and does not affect clients that are using other RDP versions.
Optimize visual experience when using RemoteFX
This policy setting allows you to specify the visual experience that remote users will have in Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) connections that use RemoteFX. You can use this policy to balance the network bandwidth usage with the type of graphics experience that is delivered. Depending on the requirements of your users you can reduce network bandwidth usage by reducing the screen capture rate. You can also reduce network bandwidth usage by reducing the image quality (increasing the amount of image compression that is performed). If you have a higher than average bandwidth network you can maximize the utilization of bandwidth by selecting the highest setting for screen capture rate and the highest setting for image quality. By default Remote Desktop Connection sessions that use RemoteFX are optimized for a balanced experience over LAN conditions. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting Remote Desktop Connection sessions that use RemoteFX will be the same as if the medium screen capture rate and the medium image compression settings were selected (the default behavior).
