NOTE:

  • If you log off from the thin client when UWF is disabled, the folder cleanup node is used by ClientServiceEngine service to clean up the contents inside the directory C:\Windows\Security. Also, when the contents of this directory is deleted, the contents in the folders C:\Windows\Security\database and C:\Windows\logs are deleted as they are added in the excluded paths.

  • You must provide unique names to add a new application entry to the XdataCleanupConfig.xml using XDCM.exe.
  • When you are running the command to add an entry, the folder path is compared with the existing entries. If the path is already available, only the exclusion paths are added to the existing folder entry.
