Disable Copy and Paste on RDP

Hi,

I have given a task to research on the web on how to disable RDP’s Copy and Paste of files due to some security issues. The following Steps should be done with Administrator rights.

  1. Open GPEdit.msc on Windows by Pressing Window Key + R
  2. A Window named Local Group Policy Editor will be shown.
  3. Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Device and Resource Redirection
    step a
  4. On the Extended Tab double click Do not allow clipboard redirection
  5. A Window named Do not allow clipboard redirection will be shown.
  6. Click Enabled and Click Apply
    step b
  7. Make sure that all users will Log Off and then Login to implement this new settings.
  8. Done

God Bless!
