Introduction to TS Web Access
TS Web Access is a role service that allows you to start
RemoteApp™ programs without the need to download or run .msi or .rdp files
TS Web Access in Microsoft Windows Server® 2008:
• Does not require the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) client to be manually started for launching a RemoteApp program
• Allows you to run applications on a remote computer
• Enables you to access RemoteApp programs seamlessly
• Does not require a separate ActiveX control to be downloaded
