LOGGING ON/OFF AND CREATING ACCOUNTS
Congratulations; welcome to enhanced security, better accessibility and a
system that’s a whole lot easier to manage.
HP Thin Clients offer reduced maintenance costs, minimal application updates,
and a higher level of security. You now have greater control over your data, easy
deployment, improved reliability and better security.
It’s easy to get started. This Quick Start Guide illustrates some of the most
common tasks on a Microsoft Windows®Embedded Standard (WES) Thin Client.
It’s designed to help you get up and running, right out of the box. However, if
you have questions, need more information, or want to set up a more unique
configuration, please refer to the Microsoft®Windows Embedded Standard
2009 (WES) and Windows®XP Embedded (XPe) Quick Reference Guide at
www.hp.com/support/manuals/thinclients. Select your thin client and its guide
under General Reference.
The factory default login on new HP Windows Embedded thin clients is User.
To determine if you are in User or Administrator mode, click Start on the menu bar.
The Log On box will appear and the line for User name will show if you are logged
on in the User or Administrator mode.
Default: User name Password
User Account User User
Administrator Account Administrator Administrator
Default User Template XXXX XXXX
To Switch between User and
Administrator mode:
1. While holding the Shift key down
2. Click Start > Shut Down > Log Off
3. The Windows Log On screen will be displayed
4. Type your User name and Password
GET YOUR NEW THIN CLIENT SYSTEM UP AND RUNNING.
There are two pre-configured WES Accounts. A default User Template is

new user (local or domain) logs
onto the device for the first time.
This template has policies
configured similarly to current
User account.

Restricted to subset of Start
Menu items, limited Control
Panel access, and no File System

PREINSTALLED SOFTWARE
MAKING AND SAVING CHANGES
(via Enhanced Write Filter)
administrator only
Microsoft offers Enhanced Write Filter
(EWF) to protect a volume from write
access. Current changes to configura-
tion or personal settings are stored in
temporary cache memory. Default state
is set to “Enabled” (changes will not
be saved)
To make and save changes, access the
EWF Configuration dialog:
1. Log in as an Administrator
2. Select Start > Control Panel > EWF
Configuration
3. Select Disable EWF
4. Click Yes to commit the overlay
5. Make the desired configuration
changes, then click Done.
6. The device will then reboot with the
saved changes.
Tips:
1. Enable the write filter when you
no longer want to make permanent
changes.
2. If EWF is disabled, it will remain
disabled until it is manually enabled
or the thin client is restarted.
3. Be sure to re-enable it when you
no longer want to write permanent
changes
to the flash memory.
4. Reboot the system for the command
to take effect.
5. All changes since boot-up of device
(intentional or unintentional), will
be written to disk when commit
changes.
6. Current default RAMDisk (Z:) size
is set at 16MB. If you need to add
applications and driver, you may
need to increase this temporary
storage: Click Start > Control Panel
> HP RAMDisk Manager
