    Hello,

    I have a dedicated server with Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 installed. I installed Remote Desktop Services role in it.

    My question is I need to restrict access or hide to C:\Users folder to all the RD Users.

    Bottom line I don't want them to see other users profile at all.

    So what is the safe way to do this?

    Can I do this by right click C:\Users > Security and removing Users from there? What would happen?

    Thanks
