HP provides this client “ready to go” out of the box to meet most common customer requirements. You

may want to add/remove features using the Add or Remove programs, the HP Easy Tools control panel

applet, or the add-ons provided on the HP support site, and customize it to your specific needs.

This guide will introduce you to the features of this client that are not found in the standard WES 2009

operating system.

Typically, a terminal is configured locally then used as a template for other terminals, which are then

configured using local or remote administration tools.

The Desktop

This section provides a general overview of WES 2009 user and administrator desktop features and

functions.

User Desktop

The desktop that is displayed when you are logged on as a user is a standard WES 2009 desktop,

with the exception that the only icons displayed are for Microsoft RDP and Internet Explorer. These

selections are also available from the Start menu. You can open the terminal emulator application (HP

TeemTalk) from Start > Programs > Hewlett-Packard.

NOTE: Links to remote Citrix published applications may also be configured to be listed on the Start

menu and/or displayed as icons on the desktop. Refer to Citrix documentation for information and

instructions.

For information about the functionality of the standard WES 2009 desktop and Start menu items, refer

to the applicable Microsoft documentation.

For information on Citrix XenApp, please visit

http://www.citrix.com.

NOTE: The Control Panel, available by clicking Start > Control Panel, provides access to a

limited set of resources for changing user preferences. You must log on as Administrator to access the

extended set of Control Panel options and utilities.

Right-clicking the mouse when the pointer is on a user’s desktop background does not open a pop-up

menu in the default windows policies configuration.
