RDS: DO NOT ALLOW CLIPBOARD REDIRECTION- THE POLICY EXPERT
The “Do not allow Clipboard redirection” setting specifies whether to prevent the sharing of clipboard contents (clipboard redirection) between a remote computer and a client computer during a Remote Desktop Services session.
You can use this setting to prevent users
from redirecting clipboard data to and from the remote computer and the local
computer.
*If the status is set to Enabled, users
cannot redirect clipboard data.
*When Disabled, Remote Desktop Services
always allows clipboard redirection (this is the default behaviour).
*If the status is set to Not Configured,
clipboard redirection is not specified at the Group Policy level. However, an
administrator can still disable clipboard redirection using the Remote Desktop
Session Host Configuration tool.
