Windows 2008 64 bit server - user cannot open a published application - all the user gets is a full screen desktop. I have published MemShell.exe in Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, Terminal Services, TS RemoteApp Manager - no joy I have configured Start, Programs, Administrative Tools, Terminal Services, TS RemoteApp Manager, TS Terminal Server Settings, "Allow users to start both listed and unlisted programs on initial connection" - no joy I have tried each setting individually and then both together. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hello, That might happen either if you have "Always display a desktop" option enabled in AD Gp or if you have some applications starting on user logon on the TS.
I've had this issue before. Should be a simple fix. The issue is that you probably don't have the terminal services role installed yet. i.e. Windows is still configured to use RDP for remote desktop / remote administration only. Once you set it up as a proper terminal server (2003 or 2008), 2X should start publishing just the application.
