The screen capture protection feature prevents sensitive information from being captured on the client endpoints. When you enable this feature, remote content will be automatically blocked or hidden in screenshots and screen shares. Also, the Remote Desktop client will hide content from malicious software that may be capturing the screen.

- If a user tries to connect to a capture-protected session host with an unsupported client, the connection won't work and will instead show an error message with the code `0x1151`.

- This feature protects the Remote Desktop window from being captured through a specific set of public operating system features and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). However, there's no guarantee that this feature will strictly protect content in scenarios where a user were to take a photo of their screen with a physical camera.

- For maximum security, customers should use this feature while also disabling clipboard, drive, and printer redirection. Disabling redirection prevents users from copying any captured screen content from the remote session.
4847
- Users can't share their Remote Desktop window using local collaboration software, such as Microsoft Teams, while this feature is enabled. When they use Microsoft Teams, neither the local Teams app nor Teams with media optimization can share protected content.
