Some windows of a Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services) RemoteApp application might not be displayed correctly in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2


View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You install the Remote Desktop Services role on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 R2.
  • You configure a Remote Desktop Services RemoteApp application on the computer. This RemoteApp application supports the Remote Applications Integrated Locally (RAIL) feature.
  • You connect to the RemoteApp application from a client computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.
In this scenario, some windows of the RemoteApp application are not displayed correctly. You find large blank or dirty areas at the expected locations of the pop-up windows. The frequency of this behavior varies.

Note This issue does not occur if you do not run the application as a RemoteApp application.

Cause

This issue occurs because the remote desktop connection does not display the window correctly if the following conditions are true:
  • The window ownership hierarchy is more than two levels deep.
  • The windows are remoted in reverse order.
Notes
  • This issue occurs if the application shows its windows from leaf to root of its ownership tree.
  • This issue might also occur if the remote desktop server sends the window information packets in leaf-to-root order to the client.

Workaround

To work around this issue, trigger a window update for the affected pop-up window. For example, you can click and hold the place where the title bar of the window is expected to be, and then move the window to the left or to the right. This action will repaint the pop-up window.

Note It is difficult to work around this issue because the whole pop-up window is invisible.
