When you use Remote Desktop Connections you may see the following error:
BITMAP DISK CACHE FAILURE: Your disk is full or the cache directory is missing or corrupted. Some bitmaps may not appear.
You then have three real options:
- Do nothing. Your RDP session will function but will “lock up” from time to time, which is annoying
- Disable Caching – Open your Remote Desktop Client, click OPTIONS, then EXPERIENCE, uncheck PERSISTANT BITMAP CACHING. See the image to the right
- Clear your cache. This is very easy to do:
- log out of ALL RDP sessions
- C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Cache
- Delete everything in that folder

Thanks a lot, this really help me, by deleting cache files. Under Windows XP, the right path is C:\Documents and Settings\username\Configuración local\Datos de programa\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\Cache
