Allow admin to install from Remote Desktop Services session

Allows Remote Desktop Services administrators to install and configure programs remotely.

By default, system administrators can install programs only when system administrators are logged on to the computer on which the program is being installed. This setting creates a special exception for computers running Remote Desktop Services.

This setting affects system administrators only. Other users cannot install programs remotely.

Supported on: At least Windows 2000
