Haven't ran any tests, but remote connecting via the SQL Server management tool is a lot faster performing various operations, shrinking databases etc I know that there are no settings on the DC that do anything with the icons, however the R2 might have a default of switching them off.
Funny is that it also says to look for Personalization in Control Panel yet that's been removed from what i can see Just shows how much attention i paid when using the server, must have right clicked computer hundred times, i think it's just muscle memory that i straight away click manage or properties. Yeah i also saw the same thing in help RE: Personalization in control panel, R2 just produces an error when you click the link.
If you click on Start and then in the search box type "show desktop icons" and then choose "Show or hide common icons on the desktop" that will give you the config screen we are all used to.
This works on R2 RTM. On R2 you will need to add the "Desktop Experience" feature. Right-clicking in the desktop will then show the "Personalize" option, which contains what you're asking for.

Thanks, straight forward and to the point. Kyle Brandt Kyle Brandt Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. Recurring logon-scriptable deletion You can do this with the Disk Cleanup tool cleanmgr. Improve this answer. Did a little research on it, there was this link that elaborates a little. Tested, this doesn't clear it for all users. Don't really want to have to contact our contractor and have him log in just to delete some files Yeah, I can confirm this behavior as well.
It seems that either scripting cleanmgr to run at each login is the closest thing to an official MS way of doing it. The alternative is to blow away the recycle bin folder on each profile. It should recreate it on the next login for each user, but I'd be a little weary to try this in production.

Disk cleanup run as an elevated user doesn't hit everyone's recycle bin? I kinda hope not even if it does making tidying up a PITA.
In a shared environment such as a terminal server that has potential for nastiness. Hm, intersting. Looks like I need to test this. I deleted it when MarkM's answer sounded the most canonically reasonable, but it sounds like it doesn't work for all users after KyleBrandt tested it. I'm thinking there isn't a documented way to do it properly due to security, most likely Deleted my answer, that is. Ray Ray 61 1 1 silver badge 1 1 bronze badge. The profile also includes user specific settings, such as the following.
Changes that you make to application layouts, such as adding buttons, changing the layout, and adding a default signature. Changes to system settings that are unique to the user experience, such as changing your desktop background, screen saver, and keyboard layout.
Documents and supporting files that are part of your profile are stored in a unique user profile folder and subfolders. DAT , not as a collection of individual settings. MAN; this file can be shared among multiple users because it is read-only. Super-mandatory user profiles are similar to normal mandatory profiles except that users with super-mandatory profiles cannot log on when the server that stores the mandatory profile is unavailable.
Users with normal mandatory profiles can log on with the locally cached copy of the mandatory profile. You will find out in detail about the parts of a profile—both the registry and the data folders—later in this chapter. Figure The user profile contains personal settings and data such as folders and the user-specific registry settings. As alluded to in the previous section, there are three types of profiles: local, roaming, and mandatory. Mandatory profiles are often centrally located like roaming profiles, but whereas local profiles and roaming profiles are read-write, mandatory profiles are read-only.
Local profiles are usually fast to load because they are stored on the computer the user is using. When a user logs on, the local profile will load from its local location on the hard drive and populate HKCU. When the user logs off, the contents of HKCU including any changes that the user made will be written back to the local hard disk and overwrite the previous version of the file. Personal desktops and single RD Session Host server deployments are possible exceptions to this, but pooled VMs and RD Session Host sessions in a farm larger than one server will quickly find that local profiles lead to an inconsistent user experience.
This is because the user would have a unique local profile on each machine she logs onto. When a user logs onto a session or VM or a computer, for that matter , the roaming profile will load from its network location and populate HKCU in the registry. When the user logs off, the contents of HKCU including any changes that the user made will be written back to the network location and overwrite the previous version of the file. A user does not start with a user profile.
The profile is created the first time that a user logs onto a machine. Mandatory profiles are the exception to this, and even the mandatory profile, which is used by multiple people, has to initially come from somewhere.
To fully understand profiles, you need to know how profiles are initially created. This will come in handy later in this chapter, when you learn how to create a mandatory profile and also how to customize a default profile. Depending on which type of profile will be used and how you have implemented the profile strategy, the process of making user profiles varies slightly.
If your users will use local profiles for instance, if you have only one RD Session Host , new user profiles will be created by making a copy of the local default profile located on the computer that the user logs on to.
This copy will go into a new folder labeled by the login name of the user. If your users will use roaming profiles, when a new user logs on to a server for the first time, a new profile is created for him by making a copy of a default user profile.
Domain joined computers will first look for a network default user profile stored in the netlogon share on a domain controller and replicated to other domain controllers. If it does not find one in the network share, then it will use the local default profile located on the computer to which the user logged on. The registry is organized into sections called keys, which align with a particular configuration option.
One easy way to watch how HKCU changes as you customize your environment is to make a change and watch the contents of the registry, as follows. Full saturation of red, blue, and green values show up as white on a monitor. Values of 0 for all three show up as black. If you ever studied color theory, this is a demonstration that black is the absence of color. Right-click the Desktop and choose Personalize from the context menu to open the Personalization window.
Click Window Color And Appearance. In the Appearance Settings dialog box, click Advanced to open the aptly named Advanced Appearance dialog box. From here, select Window from the Item drop-down list. Change Color 1 to light gray and click OK. Click OK in the Appearance Settings dialog box. The screen will adjust for a moment, and then the background color of windows will turn light gray.
