of these options, an error message is displayed indicating that the selected options are not supported.
For the ActiveX client, the native library must be loaded for Pass all keystrokes to server function to work. If the native libraries are not

Virtual Console Viewer mode—Windowed or Full Screen.
In Full Screen mode,

In Windowed mode, the keys passed only when the Virtual Console Viewer is visible and is active.
When changed from Full Screen mode to Windowed mode, the previous state of Pass all keys is resumed.

Ctrl+Alt+Del key is not sent to the managed system, but always interpreted by the management station.
When Pass All Keystrokes to Server is enabled, the following keys are not sent to the managed system:
Browser Back Key
Browser Forward Key
Browser Refresh key
Browser Stop Key
Browser Search Key
Browser Favorites key
Browser Start and Home key
Volume mute key
Volume down key
Volume up key
Next track key
Previous track key
Stop Media key
Play/Pause media key
Start mail key
Select media key
Start Application 1 key
Start Application 2 key
All the individual keys (not a combination of different keys, but a single key stroke) are always sent to the managed system. This
includes all the Function keys, Shift, Alt, Ctrl key and Menu keys. Some of these keys affect both management station and managed
system.
For example, if the management station and the managed system is running Windows operating system, and Pass All Keys is disabled,
when you press the Windows key to open the
Start
Menu, the
Start
menu opens on both management station and managed system.
However, if Pass All Keys is enabled, then the
Start
menu is opened only on the managed system and not on the management station.
When Pass All Keys is disabled, the behavior depends on the key combinations pressed and the special combinations interpreted by
the operating system on the management station.
