Writing a Terminal Services-Aware Application

  • Article

Most legacy applications will run in the Terminal Services environment, but the Terminal server must load a DLL with compatibility code. If your application is Terminal Services–aware, this DLL and its overhead can be avoided.

To indicate that your application is Terminal Services–aware, set the IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_TERMINAL_SERVER_AWARE flag in the optional header.

If your application meets the following criteria, it can set the IMAGE_DLLCHARACTERISTICS_TERMINAL_SERVER_AWARE flag when it runs.

  • The application does not use .ini files.
  • The application does not write to HKEY_CURRENT_USER during setup.
