Windows Server Launchpad

You can connect a Mac® computer running Mac OS X® 10.5 or later to Windows Server Essentials, Windows Server Essentials, or Windows Server 2012 R2 or by downloading and installing the connector software. When you finish installing the connector software, you can choose to automatically start the Launchpad at startup.

The Launchpad is a small application that provides authenticated users with access to key features of the server, including shared files and media, add-ins, and Remote Web Access. The Launchpad also provides real-time information and notifications about the health of the computer.
