Windows rdp manager
Author: b | 2025-04-24
The RDP Manager uses a Windows Remote Desktop Connection to keep RDP connected. The RDP Manager checks every 30 seconds if the declared connections are open, and opens them if they're closed. The RDP Manager retries each declared connection twice and stops if it fails on the second try. If no user is connected, the RDP Manager uses the Windows

2025-04-07R2.In simple session mode, you can change the resolution and scaling of the remote desktopNeither mode requires remote desktop access explicitly enabled in the guest OS because the connection takes place directly through the Hyper-V host. In the basic version, from the perspective of the guest OS, there is no RDP session; hence you can change the resolution and scaling as on a local system.However, this solution comes with some disadvantages. On the one hand, the maximum resolution is limited to 1920 x 1080, so the window on a 4K monitor covers only about a quarter of the screen. On the other hand, comfort functions such as copying and pasting are only available to a limited extent.Zoom within the RDP clientAnother way to improve readability in RDP sessions is to consider new features in the current RDP clients. For example, since Windows 8.1, they support so-called "smart sizing," and Windows 10 added "dynamic resizing" to vmconnect's enhanced session mode. Both of these functions only increase and reduce the resolution of the remote desktop dynamically. Hence, they do not have an effect on the scaling.The zoom function of RDP 10 results in poor display qualityMore promising here is the zoom function of the native RDP client in Windows 10. They designed it to solve the problem of showing desktop elements too small, especially when accessing older versions of Windows. In practice, however, even a 125% zoom may lead to such poor font quality that you cannot use it permanently.mRemoteNGUnlike the Remote Desktop Connection Manager proposed as a solution in some forums, the open-source tool mRemoteNG is able to decouple the scaling of the local and remote computer. Thus, this tool is a viable option to overcome the problem of too-small RDP sessions.Display of a remote desktop under Windows 10 with mRemoteNGThe tool also has the advantage that you can use it to organize all VM connections under one interface. At least in this respect, it can replace the Hyper-V Manager, though it is of course not able to control the VMs.Remote Desktop appIn addition to the native RDP client that comes
2025-04-12What are remote desktops? Remote desktops in Access Policy Manager® allow users to access the following types of internal servers in virtual desktop sessions: Microsoft® Remote Desktop servers Citrix® servers VMware View Connection servers You can configure remote desktops by name or by their internal IP addresses, and grant or deny users the ability to set up their own favorites. What is Microsoft remote desktop? With Access Policy Manager®, you can configure clients to access a server running Microsoft® Remote Desktop Services. Microsoft Remote Desktop servers run the Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) server. RDP is a protocol that provides a graphical interface to another computer on a network. To provide Microsoft RDP connections to Windows®, Mac®, and Linux clients natively, you can select the Java Client option. This provides a simple Java Client interface to the Microsoft RDP server, with reduced visual display features, on any compatible platform. See the online help for feature differences between the Java client and the Windows client. What is Citrix remote desktop? Citrix® remote desktops are supported by Citrix XenApp™ and ICA clients. With Access Policy Manager® you can configure clients to access servers using Citrix terminal services. You provide a location from which a client can download and install a Citrix client for a Citrix ICA connection. Task summary for remote desktops To set up remote desktops, perform the procedures in the task list.
