Post subject: | Classic Shell in a terminal services environment |
I have a Windows Server 2012 RDS environment. I wish to standardize the settings of the classic start menu so that each unique user receives the same classic start menu settings. I would also like for the users to not receive the initial configuration screen when they launch for the first time. Is there an (unofficial) admx template I can use to initiate this via group policy? Where are the settings stored classic start menu? Registry? App Data? Program Files? I look forward to your response. |

We do the same thing as you want. There are various ways to do this depending upon your environment. If users have already logged on to the RDS server and have a profile the best way would be to create a registry collection in a GPO in Users preferences. To do this first setup Classic Shell the way you want. Then through GPMC add in the registry settings you have just created from: HKCU\Software\IvoSoft. If no users have used the server then the best approach would be to export the registry settings you just created then load the hive file at C:\Users\Default.ntuser.dat into the registry at say HKEY_USERS\ giving it a temp name such as "def", then edit the registry file changing all the paths: HKEY_CURRENT_USER to HKEY_USERS\def. Then load the file and unload the ntuser.dat I have attached and example reg file saved as txt. This is for the 3.9.0 beta Regards, Pete

Classic Shell 4.0.4 introduces Group Policy support for its own settings. The file, C:\Program Files\Classic Shell\PolicyDefinitions.zip includes the policy definitions. If you have an Active Directory domain, extract the files to %logonserver%\sysvol\%userdnsdomain%\policies\PolicyDefinitions\ or whatever your Group Policy Central Store is. For Local Group Policy, extract them to C:\Windows\PolicyDefinitions folder. |
