The kernel-mode screen capture driver is a mirror driver that can be used to capture the remote desktop for Windows 8, 7, Vista, Windows 2008 Server and older platforms. By default, the Host will be configured to use user-mode screen capture driver, so the user will have to explicitly choose the kernel-mode screen capture driver on the Screen tab in the Host Control Panel by clicking the radio button next to Prefer kernel-mode screen capture.
The checkbox for Allow use of kernel-mode screen capture, which will disable Aero Glass will also be checked, indicating that the kernel-mode screen capture driver will always be used on this Host. Note also that the use of the kernel-mode screen capture driver will result in Aero Glass effects being disabled on Hosts running Windows 7. The user can further specify that the kernel-mode screen capture driver be preloaded at Host startup time by clicking on the checkbox next to Attach kernel-mode mirror display driver at Host startup; otherwise, the mirror driver will be attached and unattached with each connection to the Host, which may be disruptive for the user.
Note that support for kernel-mode screen capture was removed from PROXY Pro Host v10.4; this version uses user-mode screen capture exclusively.
