Hello!
I was wondering if there is a way to set SC in the helpdesk.txt or some other method to not automatically remove the remote user's Windows backdrop. I have had on several occassions machines that did not reset the backgrounds to what they were after terminating the SC connection. On some machines it was a pain in the butt to reconfigure the background (ie. the user forgot where they got the picture from or it was a complex active desktop). In most cases I've had no problems with connection speed when the background was enabled (everyone has high-speed), so it would be nice to not have to remove it at all.
