The icon in the notification area of the taskbar indicates the active or inactive status of the Unified Write Filter. For more information, see Using the Unified Write Filter (UWF). NOTE: While the Dell Wyse Write Filter icons and functionality are currently supported, Dell recommends you to use the UWF as described in the Microsoft documentation available at www.microsoft.com, and navigate to the Unified Write Filter documentation. • Application Launch Manager- The Application Launch Manager (ALM) version 1.0 enables you to start any application based on predefined events such as service startup, user log off or system shutdown in session zero. The application also allows you to configure multi-level logs which is essential for easy troubleshooting. • xData Cleanup Manager- xData Cleanup Manager (xDCM) version 1.0 keeps extraneous information from being stored on the local disk. xDCM can be used to automatically clean-up directories used for temporary caching of information. Clean-up is triggered on either service startup, user logoff, or system shutdown. It does the clean-up invisibly to the user and is completely configurable. • VNC Server-After you log in to your thin client, the Windows VNC Server utility starts automatically. VNC allows a thin client desktop to be accessed remotely for administration and support. For more information, see Using Tight VNC to Shadow a thin client.
