Switching to Main Session

After switching to Session 0, the Zero Task Tray is displayed at the bottom of the screen. You can double click on the FireDaemon Zero icon in the top-left corner of the tray to return to the user's normal logged-in session. 


Alternatively, if a time is set for the return to the main session after a period of inactivity, the countdown to an automatic return displays at the top of the screen. If this time runs out, you will automatically be returned to your main session.

Viewing Applications in Session 0

Applications appear in the notification area at the top of the screen.


The FireDaemon Zero Tray app at the bottom of the screen displays the list of applications that are currently displayed on Session 0. Click the down-arrow icon at the left edge to minimize the taskbar and applications list. Click on any of the applications listed in the taskbar to restore that application’s window and bring it to the front of the notification area. The list of applications contains three pieces of information:

  • Application icon
  • Service name (this is the name of the parent service where the SID Type = unrestricted or restricted, otherwise, the parent service will name be blank)
  • Application name as taken from the application's window title.
