An intermediate disk is a directory created by Thinfinity® Workspace to keep files that users will exchange between the remote computer and the browser. This option is only available in RDP Profiles.
The intermediate files will be available to Thinfinity® Workspace users on two places:\
On the remote connection on Windows Explorer, as a mapped drive

Intermediate physical files location:
Inside the temporary folders, each user has its files kept separately from the others.
The temporary folder structure for the users John (blue), Mary (gray) and Peter(green) above would look like the image below:
A user will have access to an intermediate disk, if he/she has access to any profile associated with this disk.
When a profile is set to anonymous, all users that connect through it will also have access to the disk associated with this profile.
The location where these files are kept physically is called "" and can be also customized on Thinfinity® Configuration Manager.
