Re: Remote desktop wallpaper session

There's always a local policy.
This is the default configuration. You might want to think twice
before changing it, because enabling wallpaper can have a strong
negative effect on performance and bandwidth requirements.

That said, you'll find the setting here:

Computer Configuration - Administrative templates - Windows
Components - Terminal Services
"Enforce Removal of Remote Desktop Wallpaper"

And here's the text from the "Explain" tab:

"Specifies whether desktop wallpaper is displayed to remote clients
connecting via Terminal Services. You can use this setting to
enforce the removal of wallpaper during a remote session. By
default, Windows XP Professional displays wallpaper to remote
clients connecting through Remote Desktop, depending on the client
configuration (see the Experience tab in the Remote Desktop
Connection options for more information). Servers running Windows
Server 2003 do not display wallpaper by default to remote sessions.
If the status is set to Enabled, wallpaper never appears to a
Terminal Services client. If the status is set to Disabled,
wallpaper might appear to a Terminal Services client, depending on
the client configuration. If the status is set to Not Configured,
the default behavior applies."
