RSOP from GPMC confirms it believes the policy is applied to the administrator but the settings tab doesn't show any software installation. Hopefully this post will make more sense when the preceding post is approved by the moderators Seems to only be the GP Software Installation part of the system that fails.
Documents from Microsoft say it should work - do you have it working in your environment at all? Anyone know a way to manually turn it on? Unfortunately login scripts are not an option in my case either, since the installer requires admin rights, but still needs to be run on a per user basis yes I know, it's not a very well written ActiveX add-on, but we're stuck with it.
Then normal user can install. Basically same thing as manually right clicking app and doing Run As during install process. Good thinking but I don't think this will work either, since the "Run As" script will install the app in the admin's user environment and not the envionment of the user who is logging on. Unless AutoIt can do some magic I'm not aware of I'll try it out and confirm for sure.
Anyone know of a good free app to find out what the MSI installer does during install? To continue this discussion, please ask a new question. For example, the Windows registry has no size limit and doesn't consume nearly as much memory, but those attributes are more relevant to server sizing.
We'll cover them in Chapter Relevant here is the fact that Windows changes the way "classes" are managed in the registry. In the Windows registry, "classes" and their associated "class IDs" refer the filename associations and data associated with COM objects.
Quite simply, it means that with Terminal Server , individual users can each have their own class settings. This is important for two reasons:. Now you can begin the actual process of installing your applications.
Although installing an application on a Terminal Server is similar to installing an application on any standard workstation, adhering to some best practices ensures your application is installed properly:. Many applications used in Terminal Server environments have "workstation" and "server" install modes. These applications have two components: the server component and the workstation component.
Since your Terminal Servers are essentially gigantic shared workstations, you need to perform a "standard" workstation install on your servers. If there's ever a situation in which you don't know which installation options to choose for an application when you're installing it on a Terminal Server, choose the options that you would use if you were installing the application onto a standard user's workstation. For example, some applications have a "thin client" mode of installation.
At first this might seem like the perfect installation option to use on a Terminal Server. But for a lot of applications the "thin client" mode of installation indicates that the bulk of the application's client files have been preinstalled onto a file share somewhere, and that the local workstation install only needs to contain user configuration information. If your application offers it, there's nothing wrong with using this type of "thin client" installation option on your Terminal Server, but you shouldn't automatically use it just because you're using Terminal Services.
Again, the bottom line is that you should install your application with the same options as if you were performing a standard end user workstation install.
Microsoft well, technically Citrix had to do quite a bit of engineering and redeveloping of many Windows components to allow multiple users to be simultaneously logged on "locally" to servers in Terminal Server environments. Even with the work that was done to the OS, the vendors who create software applications don't always take Terminal Server environments into consideration when writing their applications.
When Terminal Server first came out in , just about every application in existence didn't quite work right when installed on it. To combat that, Microsoft and the other vendors created application compatibility scripts that "fixed" applications to work on multi-user servers. These scripts were nothing more than batch files that ran to change certain application settings file locations, registry entries, etc. Fortunately, much has changed in six years, and these application compatibility scripts are largely a relic of the past.
Terminal Server only ships with scripts for three applications as compared to dozens in previous versions of Windows. However, even though Microsoft has decided it doesn't need to support many legacy applications, you might not be as fortunate in your own situation.
We won't take the time here to detail exactly how Windows uses the few remaining out-of-the-box application compatibility scripts, but it is important that you have at least a basic knowledge of how they work in case you need to design your own for the occasional misbehaving application. Most application compatibility scripts are used in pairs. The first script is typically executed by an administrator just after an application is installed.
The second is run once for each user, usually as part of a logon script. Let's consider a sample application. We'll use Lotus Notes, since it is widely familiar and is was? Once Notes was installed on the Terminal Server, you had to run the first application compatibility script. Browse All News Articles. Windows 11 Uninstall Clock. Teams Walkie-Talkie. PCI Express 6.

You can add Terminal Services in Remote Administration mode at any time, but we recommend that you install Terminal Services when you build the server.
Application Server mode is designed for serving end-user programs. If you choose Application Server mode, Terminal Services enables additional objects that are required to manage multiple users running the same programs at the same time. It affects the performance of BackOffice programs or services. There are no connection limitations. However, you must purchase licenses and run the Terminal Services Licensing service to connect to a Terminal Services server.
If you are supporting a large number of users in Application Server mode, we recommend that the server is a dedicated Terminal Server that does not perform any additional tasks.
Although other services can run at the same time, overall system performance may be affected. After you choose your mode of operation, changing or disabling the Terminal Services mode may cause programs not to work as expected.
When this problem occurs, you must reinstall the programs. If you choose to install Terminal Services in Remote Administration mode, no special program installation or configuration work is necessary. If you choose to install Terminal Services in Application Server mode, installing programs is a little different.
