# Configure RemoteFX

RemoteFX is a set of Microsoft Windows technologies that greatly enhances the end-user visual and performance experience over the RDP protocol. It is available in Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and later. Windows 7 was the first client side operating system to support RemoteFX. Both the client and the server versions must be able to support RemoteFX in order for these enhancements to work.

Although RAS supports earlier versions of Windows Server, certain performance capabilities will not be available when those versions are used. RemoteFX has been improved with subsequent releases of Windows. The best performance will always occur when running the latest version of Microsoft Windows Server being accessed from the latest workstation version.

Parallels RAS supports RemoteFX on the following clients:

* Parallels Windows Client for Windows installed on Windows 7 SP1 and higher.
* Parallels Client for Mac
* Parallels Client for Linux
* Parallels Client for iOS
* Parallels Client for Android
* Parallels Client for ChromeApp running on ChromeBooks

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/ras-best-practices-guide/remote-access-configuration/configure-remotefx.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
