Disable Windows Snap function in AVD
Whe have an application that turns into a black screen when de snap windows comes down on the to of the screen. Disabling this on the client does not solve this issue. Is there a way to disable this...
Here you go:
1. Group Policy (GPO) Method:
- Open the Group Policy Editor on the AVD host.
- Navigate to: User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Desktop > Desktop.
- Look for the policy "Turn off Aero Snap" or similar.
- Enable this policy to disable the Snap feature.
2. Registry Method:
- Open the Registry Editor on the AVD host.
- Navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop.
- Locate the key "WindowArrangementActive" and set its value to 0.
- Restart the session or the host for the changes to take effect.
3. Multitasking Settings:
- If you have access to the AVD host's settings, go to Settings > System > Multitasking.
- Turn off the Snap Windows option.
4. Apply via PowerShell:
- You can use PowerShell to modify registry settings or apply Group Policy changes remotely if you manage multiple AVD hosts.
