Modify current ADMX files to be applied through GPO.

Hello,

I need to modify current ADMX file to be able to select certain properties that are not currently available in GPO settings.

The file in question is "TerminalServer.admx" and the settings that I need to add are following:

Configure Remote FX

Optimize visual experience when using RemoteFX

Optimize visual experience for Remote Desktop Service Sessions

I have found ADMX information on this link:

https://admx.help/?Category=Windows_11_2022&Policy=Microsoft.Policies.TerminalServer::TS_EnableVirtualGraphics

In general here is what I have came up with based on my research:

    <policy name="Configure RemoteFX" class="Machine" displayName="$(string.Configure_RemoteFX)" explainText="$(string.Configure_RemoteFX_EXPLAIN)" key="SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services" valueName="fEnableVirtualizedGraphics">
      <parentCategory ref="TS_LEGACY_REMOTEFX" />  #not sure about the correct category
      <supportedOn ref="windows:SUPPORTED_WindowsXP" />
      <enabledValue>
        <decimal value="1" />
      </enabledValue>
      <disabledValue>
        <decimal value="0" />
      </disabledValue>
    </policy>

Does this looks ok, I do not have testing environment and is there another better approach (vendor does not provide ADMX files)?

Thank you,
