Resolve

Ensure that the plug-in is configured correctly

Resource and filter plug-ins are stored in the Windows registry. Resource plug-ins are stored in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tssdis\Parameters\Resource and filter plug-ins are stored in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tssdis\Parameters\Filter.

To perform this procedure, you must have membership in the local Administrators group, or you must have been delegated the appropriate authority.

To ensure that the plug-in is configured correctly:

  1. On the RD Connection Broker server, open Registry Editor. To open Registry Editor, click Start, click Run, type regedit.exe and then press ENTER.
  2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tssdis\Parameters\Plugins.
  3. For filter plug-ins, click Filter. For resource plug-ins, click Resource.
  4. Click the plug-in name.
  5. Double-click IsEnabled.
  6. In the Value data box, type 1 and then click OK.
  7. Ensure that the Name, Provider, and CLSID registry settings exist and have values assigned to them.
  8. Close Registry Editor.

Note: If you are unsure which plug-in is not configured correctly, a resource plug-in that is not configured correctly will return an Hresult of 0x88130010, and a filter plug-in that is not configured correctly will return an Hresult of 0x88130011.
