Private desktops
Private desktop is one of the supported shared workstation modes. In a private desktop mode, users have their own Windows desktops in their workstations. The private desktop is only visible to the individual user. No other user can view it. If the user copies anything into the clipboard from one desktop, the user cannot paste it into another desktop.
