How to stop local drives from being mapped in RDP

There are two key ways to prevent drives from being mapped in RDP

Uncheck option to map drives when initially connecting to the RDP session. This is can be turned off and on by the user. It is not a centrally controlled policy. See this article for more information.

Use a GPO policy to enforce this. This GPO policy will centrally manage this and can be targeted by users or groups of users. See this article for more information.
