Microsoft Windows 10 IoT Enterprise for Dell Wyse Thin Clients Administrator’s Guide

PDF

Using Unified Write Filter

To configure thin client devices using UWF, do the following:

  1. Log in as an administrator. If automatic login to a user desktop is enabled, log off from the user desktop and log in as an administrator.
  2. To disable the Unified Write Filter, double-click the Dell Wyse WF Disable icon on the desktop. This icon disables the filter and reboots the system.
  3. Configure the thin client device as per your requirements.
  4. After you configure the thin client device, to enable the Unified Write Filter, double-click the Dell Wyse WF Enable icon on the desktop. This icon enables the filter and reboots the system. Your configurations on the thin client device are now saved, and they persist after you reboot the thin client.

After system start-up, the Unified Write Filter (UWF) utility starts automatically.

You can add specific files or folders on a protected volume to a file exclusion list to exclude those files and folders from being filtered by UWF. When a file or folder is in the exclusion list for a volume, all writes to that file or folder bypass UWF filtering, and are written directly to the protected volume and persist after the device restarts.

You must log in as an administrator to add or remove file or folder exclusions during run time, and you must restart the device for new exclusions to take effect.
