Changes (Windows only)

• Avoid implicitly using Session 0 to host vtm desktop server on Windows.
• Add -0/--session0 cli options to explicitly use Session 0 to host the vtm desktop server running in background.

Notes

System-wide installation (vtm -i) allows vtm Desktop Server to run in user context in Session 0 on Windows. Placing Desktop Server in Session 0 (vtm -0) allows console applications to run independently of the user's GUI login session. But this prevents GUI applications from running from the vtm desktop environment. See "Session 0 Isolation" on the Web for details.

You can test this behavior by running the following command from the vtm desktop environment to launch an Explorer GUI window:

• command line:

  start .
