Bug report: Under Remote Desktop Connection, local units and resources menu has OK button missing

I've noticed that the "Local units and resources" in Remote Desktop Connection is missing an OK button. It seems to be a localization issue because I changed my Windows profile language to English, logged out and back in again, started RDC and
the Ok and Cancel button became visible. Changed my language back to Norwegian again and the buttons are gone again.
I have also confirmed this by testing the same on a clean new installation.
Temporary Work-around: Select an option, press tab-key once (it will select the OK button which you cannot see), then press Enter.

Hi,
Based on my test,I got the same result.
Thanks for your feedback.
We will submit this issue to Microsoft product team.

Keyboard layout under Remote Desktop Connections (US-International)

Hi,
I'm using Microsoft's Remote Desktop Connection on Mavericks 10.9.3 to connect to a Windows 7 machine using the US-International Keyboard layout, but some keys don't seem to work (quote, double quote, ~, etc.) The Mavericks machine is set up as Language English / Region UK / Input Source US International - PC. The Windows 7 with Language English (UK) / Keyboard US International.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Luiz
P.S.: A similar question has been raised for Mountain Lion a couple of years ago, but the solution provided was to use an external software that is not compatible with Mavericks

Even though it works under Lion, I never tried it under ML, Microsoft states
Note Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac (version 2.1.1) is not intended for use with Mac OS X v10.7 (Lion) or later.
So I dropped it and now I am using CoRD.

Unable to select Certificate for Remote Desktop Connection

Hi,
I have created a certificate with below parameter in inf file through a local Standalone 2008 r2 CA & imported it into Computer personal certificate store but unable to see this certificate entry while trying to select it under Remote desktop connection.
Somewhere saw we should have the private key in personal certificate store but didn't get how/where to get that key. Is that the reason, m unable to select this certificate or there is something missing in the input parameter used in inf file. Kindly suggest
what could be the problem.

Hi,
Problem is resolved now. i have done below two changes.
--> used KeyUsage=0xA0 in inf file.
--> imported certificate through certreq -accept. Earlier i was importing cert from mmc.
I think second point resolved my problem. i even didn't think that mmc & command can make this difference.

Remote Desktop Connection - Windows Network Level Authentication

Hi
I'm trying to find a piece of Remote Desktop "Manager" software for Mac which supports Network Level Authentication (NLA). When NLA is enabled on a Windows Server I am unable to connect via CoRD or Royal TSX.
The reason I say "Manager" is because I have many, many windows servers I need to connect to and so I like to use software such as the above to save a list of all the servers for ease of access - this saves me having to type in the name of the server each time.
At the moment, for those servers with NLA enabled, I have to fire up Remote Desktop Connection for Mac and enter the name. I realise I could save this each time but then I would have LOADS of shortcuts.
Any ideas/proposals on pieces of software that can cater for this?
Thanks!

Hi!
Royal TSX actually supports NLA but you have to use the FreeRDP plugin instead of CoRD and enable the setting in the advanced settings of your RDP connection.
cheers,
felix

I have an Ipad 2 and here is what I am trying to accomplish. On my laptop I connect to a remote desktop connection to access a shared program we use for reporting. How do I set up my Ipad to access this remote server? Thanks for the help.

Close ... before going for a specific Cisco app ... lets find out some details:
Host we need more details:
What is your server environment (Windows Server, or Mac OS X Server, or Linux)?
What security is implemented in your environment - as what is restricted (RDP for all or specifc credentials on all machines? Are you part of local admin group to the server you wish to connect)?
Does your environment Support CISCO IPSec connection? If so use Settings> VPN and IPSec tab to enter VPN details, if not then go with above suggestion. IF your restricted to RSA then either built in VPN settings or 3rd party app for RSA would suffice.
Finally, there are many RDP applications out there I use "Mocha RDP Light" (free minimal ads when launched not when connecting).

Windows 7 remote desktop connection cannot logoff the local user

Windows 7 remote desktop connection cannot logoff the local user
Remote Desktop connection:
(This experience is from Windows 7 remote to Windows Embedded Standard 7 computer)
I used Remote Desktop to try to log on to a Windows 7 (WES7E) computer and someone is already logged on locally (Console Session), I saw a message like this:
"Another user is currently logged on to this computer. If you continue, this user has to disconnect from this computer. Do you want to continue?"
I click on Yes.
Then I saw "Please wait for [username] to respond". No action from the logged-on local user, I waited for 30 seconds, then I was able to login the computer and at the same time was able to disconnect the logged-on local user.
Question:
1. "Another user is currently logged on to this computer..." message doesn't show me the actual logged-on user name. Is there any way to show the user name in this pop-up message?
2. After waiting for 30 seconds, I was able to login the computer and the logged-on local user is disconnected, however this local user is never been logged-off. I wanted to logoff the local user (with Console Session) when I made the connection remotely
to the computer from remote desktop (Just like Windows XP) Is there any group policy can change the behavior?
The policies I have looked at are:
Local Computer Policy | Computer Config | Admin Templates | Windows Components | Remote Desktop Services|Connections|Deny
logoff of an administrator logged in to the console session => disabled

Mei Davis

Hi ,
These behavior is by design. There is no way to change that. Thank you for your understanding.

Since upgrade to Windows 8, cannot save .rdp files under the Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop

Since I upgraded to Windows 8, I am no longer able to save individual Remote Desktop Connection files as .rdp files. I am talking about the traditional Remote Desktop Connection application on the Desktop that was in previous Windows versions, not the
Remote Desktop App from the Windows 8 store.
When I try to click on the Save button I get "An error occurred while saving to file"
When I try to click on the Save As button I get "Unable to open connection file" with the file address being where I tried to save it with the file name at the end.
Also when I upgraded to Windows 8, my .rdp files disappeared from my Documents folder.
I need to create different .rdp files for different programs that my employees get into on my server. Now I have to hand type all the info each time into the Programs tap on the Remote Desktop Connection window, because I can't save to an
.rdp file.
I like the Remote Desktop App from the Windows store but it won't let me designate specific programs to use using standard dos notation (ie c:\program files\ etc..). It just goes to my server desktop.
I want to promote Windows 8 to my employees but I need either .rdp files for the traditional Remote Desktop Connection or the ability to open specific programs using dos notation in the Windows Store Remote Desktop App.

I know this is an old post but others might still be having the problem. Here's what I did.
Create a new text file and open it in notepad. Copy the below into it and edit for your environment. (IP, screen size).

Remote Desktop Connection and printing issues

Hi,
I am using Windows 7 on my desktop and also connected to Windows Server 2008 R2 to run applications in Windows Server. However, I noted there is problem with the printer issues. Sometimes, when I tried to print some documents using applications
in Windows Server with my local printer in my room connected to desktop, it won't work.
Moreover, I need to go to Windows Server, Component Service to restart printer spooler so it will work again. This is a pain.
I also noticed there is about 30 seconds wait to process any document to print.
Unlike if I print documents directly from my local desktop computer running Windows 7 and connected to local printer, it only takes seconds to print.
My desktop is connected to Windows Server 2008 via local area network. I should not expect such a significant delay in printing.
I also wonder why printer spooler needs to be restarted when printer is not working.
Can anyone advise me about this? Can Microsoft looks into this problem and release updates to fix the bug to improve the system?
Thanks
Regards,
Clement

Hi,
Please check if you turn on this settings:
You need to set this up just before you connect. The setting will be saved so that you won't need to change it the next time you connect.
1. Open Remote Desktop Connection by clicking the Start button, clicking
All Programs, clicking Accessories, and then clicking
Remote Desktop Connection.
2.Click Options, and then click the Local Resources
tab.
3.Under Local devices and resources, select the Printers check box.
4.Click Connect to start the session.
Make sure that you select your printer in the Print dialog box each time you print.

Hi,
Based on the current situation, this error means mstsc.exe made a call into ntdll.dll (which is part of the Windows operating system) and whatever they're doing, they're doing it wrong because it caused a crash.
Let us try capture a dump file and upload your app dump file.
First enable app crash dump collection by copying following words into notepad, saving it as dump.reg and importing it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\localdumps\mstsc.exe]
"DumpFolder"=hex(2):63,00,3a,00,5c,00,63,00,72,00,61,00,73,00,68,00,64,00,75,\

"DumpCount"=dword:00000010
"DumpType"=dword:00000001
"CustomDumpFlags"=dword:00000000
Then, do a Remote Desktop Connection which may cause the issue. If error appeared, please find the crashdump file under c:\.
Note: I highly recommend you use SkyDrive to upload collected files and to post screen shots/pictures. Although you might not be used to it, SkyDrive features a lot of free advanced functionality around file storage capacity, sharing, privacy, and collaboration:

Remote Desktop Connection to Windows 8 PC from other computers crashing

Hi all.
Was hoping someone would be able to help me with an issue I'm having.
I'm trying to get a LAN remote desktop connection established to my Windows 8 laptop. It's an HP ENVY 17t-2100 CTO 3D Edition Notebook PC. Note that I'm running Windows 8 Pro only - not 8.1 as HP haven't released 8.1 graphics drivers for this laptop and probably
never will. The computer has a single user profile that has full administrator rights.
I have followed numerous web tutorials on how to turn on Remote Desktop. I've gone into Advanced System Settings > System Properties > Remote > checked "Allow Remote connections to this computer". All seems ok to me.
The problem comes when I try to establish a connection. When the connection is made, it almost instantaneously crashes the session on the computer or device trying to connect. The RDP client on my Windows 7 laptop, Mac OSX or Mac running Windows 8.1 Pro just
crashes, while the RDP iPhone or iPad app simply flickers for a few seconds then goes back to the main screen. Meanwhile, the HP ENVY loads the lock screen and displays a message saying XXX device is connected remotely and it won't let me log back in to kill
the connection or do anything. I have to restart the computer from then to be able to use it again.
I'm convinced there's not a problem with my local network as the HP ENVY can RDP into the Windows 7 laptop or Mac running Windows 8.1 without any problems. All computers are connected via Ethernet to a Linksys/Cisco wireless ADSL modem router which supports
Gigabit. The iPhone and iPad of course connect to the wifi network from the Cisco/Linksys modem router
I've also had a brief look at the RDP local connection logs. From what I can make out, they confirm that a user has successfully logged in, but they don't provide a crash log or a log of the user ever disconnecting, probably because I have to restart the computer
to continue using it. Dead end there, it seems.
The HP ENVY is connected to 3 external HP LED monitors. I've disconnected them and tried all devices with no luck. I've also played round with the RDP client settings to not mount drives or printers and the HP ENVY has no printers connected anyway, though I've
done all I can to remove any printer drivers as I've read elsewhere that they are what could cause the problem, but I've had no luck.
If anyone can suggest anything more that I can try, I would be unbelievably grateful! I'm more than happy to provide screenshots or videos of what happens when I try connecting. I'm not sure what you experts would find immediately helpful so just ask away if
you think I can provide anything.
Thanks in advance!
rugbyreff

The first thing that I would try is to uncheck all of the boxes for local resources on computer running the RDP client. It is possible that a device, such as a printer or other redirected device, is causing the crash. You can also look under Event Viewer
in the event logs of both systems and see if anything unusual appears when you attempt the remote connection.

Hi Brandon
Many thanks for your suggestions. There's nothing in the logs that I could find, like I said in the original post. I've also tried connecting with bare minimum settings on all devices (FYI the iPad and iPhone version don't support the use of printers) and
this still hasn't helped.
If you have any other ideas I'd be very glad to hear them!

Remote Desktop Connection status supervise

Dear Developers,
my level status in java programming is a little bit higher than beginner, and I know I have a lot to learn, this is why I'm trying to develop new project, some of my ideas, with your help.
Let me start this project description. The idea is, having 10 PCs in local network, 3 of them must be available all the time for anyone of the other 7 PC to connect using remote desktop connection. Those 3 PCs have WindowsXP so it is not a server to accept more than one connected through RDC, in this way anyone new comming to connection will disconect the existent one.
The java program has to supervise the IP of the 3 PCs for port 3389, and display red button if somebody is connected to those PC and as soon as the user leave the RDC for that PC the button become green. This idea is for everybody using this software to see if someone is connected or not using RDC to those 3 PC.
Do you have any idea how this can be done?
best regards,
Antonio
Edited by: Antonio1 on Jun 30, 2010 11:44 AM

that's not a bad idea. I think it's better to program an application like java client-server because I want it more useful. Let's say according to your idea, it will be on the remote machine a java application (this is server) this is checking everytime net -commands. Anytime a positive response that the port 3389 is busy, it is sending report about this to all java application (clients) to the other machines who want maybe a new connection. This information is a trigger for my button red or green depending of the status.
For client application I'd like to be available for users to add anytime a new PC (server PC) with its IP.
Can we start with some ideas for java server application?
How the program should look like?
thank you,

Remote Desktop Connection with WRT54G from Novice

Well, I’m usually pretty good at using Google and forums to eventually figure out how to fix my problem but this one absolutely has me stumped and I’m hoping someone out there has an answer for me. For the record, I have probably a beginner/intermediate knowledge of computers so if you know the answer to my problem, try to explain it simply! ****TO ANYONE WHO TAKES THE TIME TO READ THIS THING AND CAN OFFER SOME ADVICE-THANK YOU!!!!***
THE PROBLEM
I would like to be able to use Remote Desktop to log into either of my home computers from basically any computer on the internet.
THE SETUP
I have two computers, whose names are LAPTOP and DESKTOP that are both running Windows Vista Ultimate. Both of the computers are connected to a Linksys WRt54G Router ; one wired, the other wirelessly. The Linksys router is then connected to a Westell DSL Modem that connects to AT&T’s internet service.
SETTINGS
My DSL service only provides me with a dynamic IP address so I signed up with no-ip.com. Through that site, I bought a domain name and downloaded their small program that runs in the background of my desktop computer. The program checks what my IP address is every couple of seconds and if it changes, it notifies their server so that anyone who types in my domain name is directed to the new IP address.
ROUTER (Firmware 4.20.6)
Basic Setup Page: The Router Name is just the model number, the Server Name is my DSL provider and the Domain Name is the name I chose and registered with No-IP.com. (www.mydomainname.com, for example.) DHCP Server is ENABLED. DDNS Service is DISABLED. Under Advanced Routing, it is set in GATEWAY mode.
Security Page: Firewall Protection is ENABLED. Block Anonymous Internet Requests is NOT checked. Filter Multicast, Filter Internet NAT Redirection and Filter IDENT ARE checked.
Applications and Gaming Page: I chose two port numbers, one for each computer that I want to connect to. On the first line, I have Application: RDP, Port Range: 49200 to 49200, Protocol: Both, IP Address (The IP address of the computer I want to connect to) and the Enable box IS checked. [I did the same thing with the second line for the other computer, but with a different port number and that computer’s IP address)
Administration Page: Access Server is HTTP, Wireless Access Web is ENABLED, Remote Management is ENABLED through Port 8080, and UPnP is ENABLED.
WINDOWS VISTA SETTINGS
First, I went to the Remote Desktop Settings of the target computer and ENABLED Remote Desktop Connection and allowed computers running any version of Windows. I also confirmed that the box labeled “Allow This Computer To Be Controlled Remotely” WAS checked. I then made sure that I had a user name, it had a password associated and that it had Administrator priveledges. I went back to the Remote Connections screen and added the user name as being allowed to connect. (I think this is redundant since it’s both the owner of the computer and has Administrator Status.)
Next, per Randomly Googled Internet Advice, I went into the registry and changed the port number that Remote Desktop listens for incoming connections to Port 49200 to match the router settings. [Registry Entry that I modified was: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\RDP-Tcp]
Finally, I went to the Windows Firewall and Added (opened) port 49200 for use as a Remote Connection. I kept the protocol as TCP and confirmed the scope was set for Any Computer.
CURRENT STATUS
If I go to Explorer and enter my IP address with a colon and the specify port 8080, I can get the login screen for the router. Same thing happens if I just enter my domain name and port 8080. However, if I switch the 8080 port and use one of the ports I chose (49200), it cannot connect, either using the Public IP address or the domain name. (I’m trying to connect using a wireless card and not connected to my local network so I know it’s the same as if I was anywhere else.)
I’m not sure why it won’t let me connect; it feels like the router will not allow the connection to pass through it to the port I’m asking it to forward to. I’m guessing someone out there who took the time to read it is shaking their head at all the information I provided and knows the one dumb thing I missed!
Thanks again!

I'm attempting to do the same thing with my home network. the only differences are that i have cable internet from comcast and i'm running vista business. my router is the wrt54gs. i'm assuming that the web page is similar for adjustmants. To be honest i cannot figure out how to do a remote destop too. so i went to www.logmein.com and installed the program. once installed to to every computer you want to have access too and log into the website. then click on the add computer icom. full control app sharing etc... even better when you connect you have the option to deactivate the local host mouse and screen to prevent anyone seeing what your doing.
If you resolve the router issue would you let me know. plz thanks

VPN and Remote Desktop Connection

I have a standalone windows 2012 server that runs a domain with a few workstations. I have successfully configured a PPTP VPN and can connect using a Windows 7 computer at home. Once connected to the VPN, I can Remote Desktop to the server - but not any
other computers. The computer I'm trying to connect to runs Windows 7 and has remote desktop connections enabled.
Under the Access Details in the Remote Access Management the VPN connection is shown correctly first to the router (x.x.x.1) then the server (x.x.x.2) under Protocol 17 and Port 53. Then the server is shown again under Protocol 17 and Port 3389, which must
be the Remote Desktop connection. And then the workstation on the domain (x.x.x.20) also shows a connection with Protocol 17 and Port 3389. However, the remote desktop connection fails everytime. I'm not sure where the issue exists since it appears the server
is seeing and acknowledging the remote desktop connection. On my router I have PPTP passthrough enabled and port forward 3389 to the server.
I have attempted to use the workstations internal IP address as well as the computer name (workstation and workstation.domain.local) when connecting.
Thanks for your help.
I just noticed these three event errors on the destination remote machine. Not sure why it's trying to use L2TP?
Failed to apply IP Security on port VPN2-1 because of error: A certificate could not be found. Connections that use the L2TP protocol over IPSec require the installation of a machine certificate, also known as a computer certificate.. No calls
will be accepted to this port.
A certificate could not be found. Connections that use the L2TP protocol over IPsec require the installation of a machine certificate, also known as a computer certificate. No L2TP calls will be accepted.
The Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol service either could not read the SHA256 certificate hash from the registry or the data is invalid. To be valid, the SHA256 certificate hash must be of type REG_BINARY and 32 bytes in length. SSTP might not be able to
retrieve the value from the registry due to some other system failure. The detailed error message is provided below. SSTP connections will not be accepted on this server. Correct the problem and try again.

Morning Trent,
I don't know if this is still an issue for you, did you get it solved?
If not, check on the server whether the user credentials that you're using to RDP to the workstation are actually authorised server-side. If that checks out, on the VPN connection you can specify a protocol to use. Specify the protocol that your VPN is configured
to use on the server.

Remote Desktop Connection Stopped Working when Disconnecting

Hi I have a fresh clean install of Windows 8.1. Whenever I RDP into another Windows 8 machine... upong disconnecting I get the error: "Remote Desktop Connection Stopped Working"
I have tried not mapping to remote printers, or drives (smart cards etc.) and it still persists. When I remote to Windows Server or Win 7, it does not happen.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you

FYI, same issue here, Windows 8.1 on ThinkPad W520 (upgraded from Windows 8).
Even without Fingerprint Manager, and having uninstalled ThinkVantage Password Manager as well, still crashes. I also tried the:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
but no luck, my mstsc.exe is still crashing when the remote session window is closed.
