We’ve started seeing this error message on quite a few of the servers that we log into remotely – given that the error message talks about permissions and group policy, I started looking in that direction trying to find what had changed. The problem turned out to have nothing to do with group policy or user rights, but a setting in LogMeIn!
When you log into a server through LogMeIn, you get this error message:
I have verified that the problem occurs on a server through LogMeIn, but connecting to that same server with RDP will not throw up an error, and BGInfo fires just fine.
Thankfully, the fix is simple: Once you have the server selected, click on Preferences, then General:
Under the Remote Control option, uncheck the box to Disable wallpaper and user interface effects on host computer.
Hit Apply, and then go back to Remote Control and remind LogMeIn and BGInfo that yes, I am Yo’ Daddy!
thanks. this worked great
