We use BGInfo, but I refuse to add it to the wallpaper...
I do like the details of your config.
j
That is going into the lab tomorrow - great idea and great share - cheers!

Just figured out it only works for server VDA, script for desktop VDA is coming today

n
Yeah, was just about to tell you the SessionSfr doesn't exist in the Desktop VDA.
Is there a typo on line 28? Should that be '-Name'?
d
Yes, thanks! I will correct this. Maybe there is a better way to find out the session ID
e
Awesome
n
_Component_Monitor_VideoCodecTypeCurrent_ doesn't appear to exist in my W10 VDA, as well (line 52).
d
OK Nick, will check this too
n
Don't know if this is the answer, but changing line 28 to this gets the expected results:
Copy code
$CitrixSessionID = Get-ChildItem -Path "HKCU:\Volatile Environment" -Name
d
Yes, this works! 👍 Community power!

Nice one Dennis

@Nick Panaccio if you don't use bginfo for wallpaper then how do you use it? it's been over a decade since i've touched it. users hated it, but we loved it
n
System tray app. Our users are trained to open it when they need assistance (and are asked for info).
n
ahhh i didn't know that was possible! guess i should check it out after a 10 year leave from it, hehe
n
Yep, we just add it to the Run registry key: BGinfo.exe /taskbar C:\WINDOWS\BGInfo\BGinfo.bgi /accepteula
n

I didn’t know that either, you never stop learning… very cool!
n
@Nick Panaccio so i did the bginfo in systray as you mentioned, however the window is not scrollable when i added all fields, is this normal?
n
I think that's set in the config when you edit it? It's been a while since I've had to edit my own.
n
ill check, ty
n
Hmm, I don't see a scrollbar setting, so I don't know,.
n
im guessing you dont have many fields huh?
d
Works perfect, no scrollbar with my sample BGInfo file, which has quite a lot of settings
n
We don't have nearly as much info as Dennis provides, but do have our logo at the bottom. It's a decent size.
d
If you add ‘/taskbar’ to the arguments in the last line of the script you get a taskbar icon, so the wallpaper isn’t changed! Thanks for that @Nick Panaccio
n
yea im using the /taskbar, however too much data still isnt scrollable in the window
r
U guys rocks
e
It shows FSL status on WS19, but not on WS16, do you have the code handy that needs to be replaced?
r
Dennis, can i steal this from you?
l
Your link is broken there Dennis, please could you repost it?
r
Yes please
d
I just realized that I never tested this with Server 2016 😳.
n
Quick, test it before anyone notices...
d
Corona doesn’t let me... too much work. Fucking virus 🦠! Customers driving me nuts...
l
Tell me about it. I'm soooooo busy.
e
I start at 0500 these day. In terms of WS16 & FSL its just another reg location
r
yea, the whole virus deal, I am over it.
n
Same here. Today was my first day where I didn’t put in a solid 12 hours. Needed the break, especially given how utterly depressing it is watching the news these days. Stay safe fellas.
