SetUserAuthenticationRequired method of the Win32_TSGeneralSetting class
Enables or disables the requirement that users must be authenticated at connection time by setting the value of the UserAuthenticationRequired property in the Win32_TSGeneralSetting class. If True, which means enabled, UserAuthenticationRequired requires user authentication at connection time to increase server protection against network attacks. Only Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) clients that support RDP version 6.0 or higher are able to connect. To avoid disruptions for remote users, it is recommended that you deploy RDP clients supporting the appropriate protocol version before you enable the property.
