Rules for Microsoft Remote Desktop, TSplus Remote Taskbar, Floating Panel and Application Panel
- You can customize your user's work environment by assigning one application out of these four: Microsoft Remote Desktop, TSplus Remote TaskBar, Floating Panel and Application Panel.
- If no application is assigned to one user, he will see the Microsoft Remote Desktop which will display the Desktop folder shortcuts.
- If one user has several allocations plus the Microsoft Remote Desktop, he will see a remote desktop.
- If a user has several applications plus the TSplus TaskBar, he will see the TaskBar displaying his Desktop folder' shortcuts.
For more information on the Remote Taskbar, Floating and Application Panels, see these documentations: Remote Taskbar, Floating and Application Panels
Running scripts/programs on session opening
- If you want to start a script when the session opens, you must name it LOGON.BAT or LOGON.CMD and copy this script:
- In the Application Data folder of All Users if this script applies to all users,
- In the Application Data of the user if this script applies to this user.
- If you want to start a script on the client side when a session is opening, you just have to name a program STARTUP.EXE and to copy it at the home drive of the user PC (C:\startup.exe).
- If you want a program to be started as a service when the TSplus server reboots you have to name this program STARTUP.EXE and copy it in the folder:
C:\Program Files\TSplus\UserDesktop\Files\ .
