RDP drive redirection mount read-only

hi,

i am using Horizon view 8.1 (2012) in my environment and i've created a pool that use RDP for user connection. in RDP pool user local drive automatically mount to their desktop as map drives. now i want to restrict copy data from desktop to local user devices in other words i want to mount or redirect local drives read-only.

in Blast protocol, there is a policy for share folder that make them read-only (HKLM\Software\VMware, Inc.\VMware TSDR\permissions=r) but in RDP protocol i couldn't find any solution to do that.

Thanks in advanced.

RDP(protocol of Microsoft) doesn't support the read-only feature. You need to switch to Blast or PCoIP connection.
