Hi all,
we’re running RAS 21.2 on Server 2025 RDSH, and Windows Snap doesn’t work properly for seamless published apps (SAP B1, even Notepad).
After setting WinArrangement = 0 (KB 130140/130264), drag-to-top maximizes fine, but left/right snapping and Snap Layouts still don’t work. User settings and GPOs look fine.
Inside a published desktop everything snaps fine. As soon as we launch a published explorer.exe in the same session, snapping works for all the other apps too, B1 included. So it looks like Snap needs explorer.exe, which isn’t running in a pure app session.
Our workaround for now: a logon task that starts explorer.exe in the background and closes its window.
Is this a known limitation? Is there a proper way to get Snap working without explorer.exe, or any side effects we should watch out for?
Thanks!
