Hey,<br />
<br />
The name of the CPL is Microsoft.Printers. This is the new name in Windows 7. It should be added to the &quot;Show only the specified Control Panel items&quot; policy. Do make sure to add the GPO to a users OU because this is a user setting.

I am working with Group Policy objects on Windows Server 2008. &nbsp;The object I am using only allows the users to see what I want them to see in control panel by listing the associated System32 &quot;cpl&quot; file that I add to the GPO. &nbsp;I want these users both Vista and Windows 7 to only see the Printers and Faxes icon in control panel. &nbsp;I cannot find a &quot;cpl&quot; file associated with Printers and Faxes so I am not sure what I could put into the GPO that would make this happen. &nbsp;I tried Microsoft.Printers and that did not work. &nbsp; Any ideas would be appreciated. &nbsp;Thanks!

Microsoft server applications are those applications developed specifically, but not necessarily exclusively, on the Windows Server platform. In addition to well-known products like SQL Server, Exchange, Internet Information Services (IIS), Microsoft Dynamics, Forefront, Lync and Sharepoint, they include applications like Skype, BizTalk, Hyper-V, Groove and Commerce Server. Server applications are managed with the Microsoft System Center.

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.

An application server is a software framework that provides both facilities to create applications and a server environment to run them. Most application server frameworks contain a comprehensive service layer model, acting as a set of components accessible to the software developer through an API defined by the platform itself. For Web applications, these components are usually performed in the same running environment as their web server(s), and their main job is to support the construction of dynamic pages. However, many application servers target much more than just Web page generation: they implement services like clustering, fail-over, and load-balancing.
