1 Getting Started
This manual is intended for administrators of HP thin clients based on the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise operating system. You are expected to use an operating system image provided by HP and log into Windows as an administrator during system configurations or when using administration applications, as described in this manual.
Logging into Windows
There are two default user accounts.
- Administrator or Admin: Allows you to perform permanent system configurations, such as managing user accounts or installing applications.
NOTE: For newer images, the built-in Administrator account included with Windows is disabled by default and is replaced by the Admin. account provided by HP. HP strongly recommends keeping the built-in Administrator account disabled as it does not have User Account Control prompts to confirm that you authorize operating system changes, which can lead to unintentional changes. Prompts are enabled in the Admin. account.
- User: Does not allow permanent system changes and is intended for end-user operation
The User account logs into Windows automatically at startup, and you must then switch to the Administrator or Admin. account manually using the default password Administrator or Admin respectively.
To switch to the User account, use the default password User.
NOTE: User account passwords are case-sensitive. HP recommends changing the passwords from their default values. For more information about user accounts, including how to change a password, refer to the User Account Management section on page 4.
Accessing Administration Applications in Control Panel
Follow the instructions to open Control Panel.
Most administration applications mentioned in this guide are found in Control Panel when the view by icons (not categories) is used.
- On the Start button, search for Control Panel and select it.
Local Drives
There are two default local drives.
- C: (flash drive): This is the physical disk where the operating system and applications are installed. This disk is protected by a write filter (refer to the Write Filter section on page 3).
CAUTION: The system may become unstable if the free space on the flash drive is less than 10%.
- Z: (RAM drive): This is a virtual drive created using RAM. This drive behaves like a physical disk, but is created at system startup and destroyed at system shutdown. You can configure the size of this drive with HP RAM Disk Manager (refer to the HP RAM Disk Manager section on page 15).
NOTE: When the HP write filter is active, the Device Manager RAM drive device displays a yellow warning icon indicating that the device is disabled.
2 Write Filter
New HP thin clients are protected by the write filter provided with HP Write Manager. For more information, refer to the administrator manual for HP Write Manager (HPWM).
3 Configuration
Use this chapter to make configuration changes. IMPORTANT: Be sure to disable the write filter before proceeding with configuration changes. Once you have finished making changes, be sure to enable the write filter.
User Account Management
Changing a Password
Follow these instructions to change the password for the account that is logged in:
- Select Start, then select Settings.
- Select Accounts.
- Select Sign-in options.
- Select the Change button under the Password heading, then follow the on-screen instructions.
To change the password for a different account:
- In Control Panel, select User Accounts.
- Select Manage another account.
- Select the account you want to manage.
- Select Change password, then follow the on-screen instructions.
NOTE: Only administrators can change passwords. A standard user cannot change their own password.
Creating Other User Accounts
A newly created account is automatically a member of the local Users group, but to match the default User account, you must add the new account to the Power Users group. If not, the new user will not be able to add a local printer.
IMPORTANT: Due to space constraints on the flash drive, keep the number of users to a minimum.
To add a user account:
- Select Start, then select Settings.
- Select Accounts.
- Select Other accounts.
- Select Add another user on this PC, then follow the on-screen instructions.
NOTE: For more information about configuring a specific user account that you want to log into automatically at system startup, refer to the HP Logon Manager section on page 15.
A new user account has a user profile based on a default template. A user profile contains the configuration information for a user account, such as desktop settings, network connections, and application settings. A user profile can be either local (specific to a thin client) or roaming (server-based and accessible from multiple different thin clients).
NOTE: Local copies of roaming profiles should be written to the flash drive (C:); it must have sufficient free space for this operation. Roaming profiles are not retained when the system restarts.
Changing Account Type
Use the following procedure to change the account type between administrator and standard user:
- Select Start, then select Settings.
- Select Accounts.
- Select Other accounts.
- Select the account you want to manage, select Change account type, then follow the on-screen instructions.
Deleting a User Account
Follow this procedure to remove a user account.
- Select Start, then select Settings.
- Select Accounts.
- Select Other accounts.
- Select the account you want to delete, select Delete, then follow the on-screen instructions.
Disabling Wireless Capability
If you need to disable wireless capability on the system, follow these steps:
- Select Start, then Settings, Network & Internet, and then Change adapter options under the Wi-Fi heading.
— OR —
In Control Panel, select Network and Sharing Center, then Change adapter settings. - In the list of network connections, right-click (or tap and hold) the item associated with the wireless adapter, then select Disable.
Configuring System Date and Time Settings
You can manually set the system date and time.
The Windows Time service is set to Manual (Trigger Start). By default, this service attempts to synchronize with Microsoft’s clock server (time.windows.com) every seven days. If the thin client is connected to a domain, this service attempts to synchronize its clock with an available domain controller or NTP server, if applicable.
To access these settings:
- Select Start, then select Date & time.
TIP: You can also access these settings by right-clicking the clock icon in the Windows notification area and selecting Adjust date/time.
Installing Applications
Use this procedure to install an application.
- Disable the write filter (requires a system reboot).
- Proceed with the installation.
NOTE: If the installation process requires a system reboot, you should perform the reboot before proceeding to the next step.
3. Enable the write filter (requires a system reboot).
When installing applications, it may be necessary to temporarily change certain environment variables so that they point to the flash drive (C:) instead of the RAM drive (Z:). The RAM drive space may be insufficient to hold temporary files cached during the installation of some applications.
To change environment variables:
- Right-click (or press and hold) the Start button, then select System from the menu.
— OR —
Press the Windows key +X, then select System from the menu. - Select Advanced system settings, then select Environment Variables.
- Set the TEMP and TMP variables to C:\Temp.
NOTE: Create this folder beforehand if necessary.
IMPORTANT: Then, be sure to reset the environment variables to their original values.
Configuring Application Caching to the RAM Drive
You must configure applications that cache temporary files to the RAM drive (Z:) to reduce the number of write operations to the flash drive (C:). By default, the following items are cached to the RAM drive:
- Temporary user, system, and print spool files
- Temporary Internet files (copies of websites and media saved for faster viewing)
- Website cookies, caches, and databases (stored by websites to save preferences or improve website performance)
- Browsing history
Installing the Microsoft Edge Browser Update
Microsoft Edge with Internet Explorer mode replaces the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application.
- Microsoft Edge is excluded from Windows Update. You can obtain the update via https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/edge/business/download every 6 weeks.
- When the system is connected to the Internet, Microsoft Edge normally attempts to update itself automatically when an update is available. Due to the write filter, HP disables automatic updating of Edge in its Windows 10 IoT images.
You can view the automatic update function by going to edge://settings/help.
NOTE: When automatic updating is disabled, a notification window opens to inform you that HP has disabled this function. Your company’s IT department has not disabled this function.
Windows Sandbox
Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2021 LTSC does not support Windows Sandbox on HP thin client images.

NOTE: If a Windows server is used, a Terminal Server Client Access License (TSCAL) must also be present on the network. A client access license (CAL) allows the client to use services provided by the Windows server. The server grants temporary licenses (on an individual device basis) that are valid for 90 days. After that, TSCALs must be repurchased and installed on the TSCAL server. A client cannot establish a connection without a temporary or permanent license.
AVD/Win365 Remote Desktop Client (Extension Only)
Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365 are virtualized systems that bring Windows 10 and Windows 11 to the cloud. You can securely and globally stream the full Windows experience to devices. Use the information in this section to properly configure the client.
The HP write filter causes settings to be lost after reboot. This section describes how to retain certain settings between reboots.
AVD/Win365 Client (Write Manager)
- Client connection information persists only for Admin and User accounts pre-configured on HP images. After rebooting the computer, you can save user subscription information, such as the username, for administrator and user accounts, but you cannot save password information.
To retain client connection information, enable the AVD/Win365 profile in HPWM 2.XX:
- Under Windows, log in as a user and navigate to the %localappdata% folder. For example: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local.
Since HPWM cannot handle exceptions using wildcards, you must add an exclusion for rdclientwpf.
2. Open the HPWM interface and add an exception for the rdclientwpf folder under the user folder in Windows. For example:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\rdclientwpf.
Be sure to add an exception for all user accounts that are necessary. Refer to the HP Write Manager Administrator Manual for more information.
NOTE: Passwords do not persist.
- To disable automatic client updates, enter the following registry key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SOFTWARE \Microsoft\MSRDC\Policies] "AutomaticUpdates" =dword:00000000.
- Upgrading HPWM to 2.XX does not add a new profile to AVD/Win365. To obtain these profiles, uninstall the existing HPWM version, then reinstall it (this task removes any custom profiles that were previously saved). If you need to save created or customized profiles, use HPWM to export them and then import the ones you need into HPWM after the clean installation.
REMARK: Ensure that HP Write Manager is installed before installing the HP User State Tool.
Retain client window settings by enabling the AVD/Win365 profile in the HP User State Tool (HPUST) X.XX (extension only). The recurrence function applies only to the client window and not to windows from the time resources are launched. This will retain user-specific settings in the AVD client UI, such as dark and light mode, and user-specific state settings, such as client window size and client window position.
