Configure clipboard transfer options in AVD session hosts
We are migrating our VDI from VMware Horizon to AVD. I have an AVD host pool with Windows 10 22h2 session hosts. I need to disable clipboard transfers except plain text from the client to session hosts and session host to client. Can this be done with a GPO? If so does anyone know the specific GPO settings?
I found an article about this but it applies to Windows 11 23H2, not Windows 10.
Thank you
Try deploy by GPO:
- Open Group Policy Editor: Press Win + R, type gpedit.msc, and press Enter.
- Navigate to Clipboard Settings: Go to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > System > OS Policies.
- Edit Clipboard Policy: Find the policy named Allow Clipboard History and double-click it.
- Disable Clipboard History: Set the policy to Disabled. This will disable clipboard history and restrict clipboard transfers to plain text only.
- Apply and Update: Click Apply and then OK. You may need to restart the session hosts for the changes to take effect.
