Sorry it took me so long to get back to this. I did see Anon3141's post, and I can confirm that ClearType is not disabled for computers where "Disable wallpaper and user interface effects on host computer" is not enabled. Thanks, Anon3141.
I agree that ClearType really should be able to be left on even if wallpaper and user interface effects are off. I'm guessing that ClearType probably uses a nominal amount more processing and bandwidth. No one really "needs" a fancy wallpaper or to see window contents while dragging, etc, and those items probably do use an appreciable amount more processing/bandwidth. But if a user has to really strain to read text (without ClearType), that becomes a bad solution.
LogMeIn Staff - Will you make changes to allow ClearType to stay on even if "Disable wallpaper and user interface effects on host computer" is selected?
etb SterlingAZ Anon3141 Are you able to confirm if the affected users have multi-GPU setups on their host PCs?
Hi AshC ,
Thank you for working on this. Sorry that I am not getting back to you sooner - it looks like the email notification alerting me to your reply was not sent to me until today. And since about 3:00pm today, I have been getting errors when trying to post this reply.
If you define "multi-GPU setups" to mean "2 or more discrete graphics cards in 1 computer", then none of our host PC's have multi-GPU setups.
Many of our host PC's do have 1 discrete graphics card along with the Intel integrated graphics. But I can confirm that this issue affects all of our host PC's - including host PC's which only have integrated graphics.
Thank you. We are still trying to replicate this behavior internally for a fix.
Hi AshC , there is no multi GPU setups on any of our host PCs. Just using the in-built Intel graphics.
etb , you can further speed up the remote experience by turning off "Show animations in Windows" and "Show transparency in Windows". Both of these settings can be found in Windows 10 Settings, Ease of Access.
