The Terminal Services Client is controlled by the Terminal Server Client node in the registry. The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client registry key controls the configuration of the Terminal Services Client. The following table shows the named values.

Value Description
CEConfig Default setting is "WBT". The following list shows the available settings:
  • "WBT" indicates that the Terminal Services Client is running in a Windows Thin Client Shell. This is when SYSGEN_WBTSHELL = 1.
  • "Maxall" indicates that the Terminal Services Client is not running the Windows Thin Client Shell. This is used in all other OS designs.

The following list shows the behavior when WBT is set:

  • File change notifications through protected server library (PSL) calls are disabled.
  • The Windows Thin Client Shell does not bring up the Windows CE Terminal Services Client (CETSC) user interface.
  • Keyboard hooks are disabled for the Windows Thin Client Shell.
  • Additional registry migration occurs for Windows Thin Client OS designs because the connections are started through registry settings and not through .rdp files.

The following list describes issues that a Windows Thin Client might encounter if this value is set to "Maxall":

  • The Filesys.exe may crash when drive redirection is enabled and an attempt is made to copy a file by using the clipboard.
  • The CETSC user interface appears in the Windows Thin Client when the dialog box about enabling drive redirection is cancelled.
  • Hot key messages might be sent to remote sessions.
BitmapPersistCacheLocation Default setting is \Temp. This setting indicates the location of the bitmap cache.
DisableFileAccess Default setting is 1. This setting indicates whether the user has access to the local file system. A value of 1 indicates that access to the local file system is disabled and the Save As and Open buttons are not available in the UI. A value of zero (0) indicates that the user has access to the local file system.
FullScreenAlways Default setting ifor the Thin Client is 1. You should not change this value.

When this value is 1, windowed mode is disabled and the session is always run in full-screen mode.

The following code example shows the registry settings in Rdp.reg that associate .rdp files with CETSC.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.rdp]
    @="rdpfile"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\rdpfile]
    @=LOC_RDPCONNECTION
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\rdpfile\DefaultIcon]
    @="\\Windows\\cetsc.exe,-101"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\rdpfile\Shell\Open\Command]
    @="\\Windows\\cetsc.exe %1"

For more information, see RDP Registry Settings.

Additionally, when a Thin Client that has the Windows Thin Client Shell is deployed and run, user preferences are stored in the HKey_Current_User\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Default registry key. This information is comparable to what is included in the .rdp file when a shell other than the Thin Client Shell is used. The following table shows the named values in this key.
