[THIN] Re: Anyone know if their is a GPO or registry key for "Turn off all unecessary animations"

Well, it’s created a beautiful dialogue/button right under the start menu to frustrate my users with it’s lack of finding anythingJ. Presumaby I need to install indexing as a feature then? Is this a bad idead for a TS under W2K8?

Do you have it enabled?  I don’t think it’s on by default like Vista/Win7.

Thanks, and works perfectly. While I’m pushing my luck, anyone having any joy getting the W2K8 Search to find...well, anything, really?

Connected to this, anyone know how to turn off the ‘Public’ folder on a W2k8 server? Lord only knows what it’s doing there in the first place; makes sense for Vista, but I can’t see any justification for it on a server, never mind a terminal server.

Trying to track down the registry setting in Vista and Server 2008 that is under Ease of Access Center / Make it easier to focus on tasks / scroll to bottom and under Adjust Time Limits and flashing Visuals section we want the box to be checked to "Turn off all unnecessary animations (when possible)"  This should be available as a GPO as it is definitely necessary to turn off on the server for Terminal Services connections.
