Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) is a proprietary network protocol that allows an individual to control the resources and data of a computer over the Internet. This protocol provides complete control over the desktop of a remote machine by transmitting input such as mouse movements and keystrokes and sending back a graphical user interface. Your Windows 10 question is more complex that what is typically answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro audience on TechNet. Please post your question in the TechNet Remote Desktop forum. Feel free to post back if you have other inquiries. Unlike server editions of Windows, Microsoft limits the client editions of Windows to one concurrent user, whether remote or local. So if a remote desktop connection is made, no one physically at the PC can use it or even see the desktop without first kicking off the remote user.

Enabling Concurrent Sessions allows you to Remote Desktop into a PC that someone else is on, under a different user account, and access the system without di. The goal of this project is to enable Remote Desktop Host support and concurrent RDP sessions on reduced functionality systems for home usage. RDP Wrapper works as a layer between Service Control Manager and Terminal Services, so the original termsrv.dll file remains untouched. Also this method is very strong against Windows Update. A Universal Termsrv.dll Patch – created by a dev who goes by the alias DeepXW – enables concurrent remote desk-topping. Simply download from the link below, run the.exe (as an Admin) and install. Unfortunately, the Remote Desktop Server in Windows other than the Server edition has a limitation to allow only one concurrent user per session by default, i.e. If someone remotely connects to the computer over RDP then whoever was logged in at that moment will be automatically logged off, even if that user is physically present at the computer.

If you have never used concurrent remote desktop to support your Windows clients, this post is about to make your day! Concurrent remote desktop can allow you, as an admin, to interactively use a client OS while the main user is still actively logged in.

I’ve written about concurrent remote desktop before. The method that I used five years ago is completly different than the method that I prefer now.

Where the old version was a cumbersome and very OS version specific, this newer method is simple and scalable. With more than two million downloads, it also has a wide user base to provide some support. Today, we are going to deploy RDPWrapper in about ten minutes.

Start by downloading these two files:

Place the MSI on a network share and deploy it with Group Policy / SCCM / etc. As a general rule, do not deploy it to any computer where the primary user remotes in as it can lead to some strange session issues. For example, I deploy this MSI to my student and teacher machines, but I do not deploy it to IT computers. If you have used an alternative CRDP method in the past, you will want to ensure that the original termsrv.dll file is restored to the computer.

Once the MSI is installed, you’ll see just two new files in Program FilesRDP Wrapper. RDPWrap.dll sits between terminal services and provides concurrent use abilities. RDPWrap.ini contains the instructions and support for each client OS.

If you scroll to the bottom of RDPwrap.ini, you will see that it does not have information for the latest Windows 10 versions. That information is stored in the rdpwrap-master.zip file that you downloaded earlier.

Open the rdwrap-master.zip file and navigate to the res subfolder. Copy the rdpwrap.ini from that folder to your network share. Deploy it to your clients to enable support for the latest Windows 10 versions. Personally, I use Group Policy File preferences to deploy the ini file.

Set the preference action to replace and use Item Level Targetting to ensure that the newer file replaces the default file. While you are in the common options tab, set the preference to just apply once.

When future Windows 10 client versions are released, just grab the updated INI file and deploy it. It really is that easy! To test RDPWrapper, reboot the client machine and log on to that computer as a standard user. From your admin machine, launch a remote desktop session to that computer and you should be able to log on as well. If you open taskmgr, you should see that two users are actively logged in.

In the game Civilization, there is a quote that says, “Don’t reinvent the wheel. Just realign it.” At times, it might seem silly to go back and find another solution to the same problem. Those realigned solutions, such as using RDPWrapper, are simply so much better!

Remote Desktop Windows 10

• By Stats’M

• RDP Wrapper Library

  Multi-user Remote Desktop Application

• RDP Wrapper is a free open source project to enable Remote Desktop Host support and concurrent RDP sessions on reduced functionality systems for home usage.

  RDP Wrapper works as a layer between Service Control Manager and Terminal Services, so the original termsrv.dll file remains untouched. Also this method is very strong against Windows Update.

  Instruction: Download the RDPWrap.zip file and then unzip it. Simply execute the install.bat file but make sure to disabled anti-virus software during installation. If it is not working on Windows 10 with the latest update, run the update.bat file. If you are using a Windows XP, follow the guide to download another file purpose-built for Windows XP after clicking the install.bat file.

  Attention: It’s recommended to have original termsrv.dll file with the RDP Wrapper installation. If you have modified it before with other patchers, it may become unstable and crash in any moment.

  Media Player Supporting vCloudPoint’s Client-rendering Feature

• VLC is a free and open source cross-platform multimedia player and framework that plays most multimedia files as well as DVDs, Audio CDs, VCDs, and various streaming protocols.

  Beginning from vMatrix 2.0, vCloudPoint introduced a new feature that allows local videos played on the zero client with VLC player to be rendered locally by the client processor instead of the host cpu.
  This feature aims to significantly offload host-side cpu consumption on video playing and help support more video users per host especially for cases where simutaneous video play is often required.
  This feature is supported by VLC player of 2.1.5 or newer versions and works automatically after the installation of vMatrix 2.x. You just make sure you are using the correct versions of vMatrix and VLC player and VLC player is selected to play the video, then you are ready to “save”.

  Note: As the media content is not rendered at the host side, there is a drawback of using this feature: media content within the VLC player cannot be viewed by the administrator through monitoring at the host side.

  Description
  Maximum Dr.Web protection for Windows,
  Anti-virus for macOS and Linux
  Dr.Web Security Space includes applications that provide comprehensive protection for Windows and Android, and anti-virus security for OS X and Linux. If you want to switch from Windows to Mac OS X while your license is valid, you won’t have to replace your key file—just download the required distribution free of charge.

  Protection components for Windows
  Anti-virus — blocks viruses and malware from accessing the protected system and will cure the malignant programs that have already penetrated it.
  Anti-spam — detects spam and other unsolicited messages in any language, with next-to-zero false positives.
  SpIDer Gate® an HTTP monitor that scans webpages in real-time and blocks phishing websites and other dangerous web resources.
  Parental control — blocks access to websites by URL keywords and protects children from exposure to objectionable web content. The “restrict access” feature protects information located on removable data-storage devices and in files and directories from unauthorised access, theft, and deletion.
  Anti-virus network component — lets you remotely control Dr.Web anti-viruses installed on computers connected to one local network.
  Firewall — an impenetrable barrier to hackers attempting to break into your system.

  Services for Windows
  Dr.Web Cloud
  If a PC is connected to the Internet, all URLs opened by the user are first authenticated in the cloud on Doctor Web’s servers. The URL is examined in real time regardless of how current the virus definitions on the user’s computer are.
  Data Loss Prevention (backup)
  By regularly creating back-up copies of your files, the Data Loss Prevention feature will keep them from becoming corrupted by encryption malware. Simply enable this feature so that even if a Trojan encodes your files, you will be able to restore them on your own without having to request support from Doctor Web. Unlike conventional back-up programs, Dr.Web creates backups and protects them from intruders.
  Removable device access control
  Most modern threats can’t replicate themselves. People spread Trojans from one PC to another with their flash drives. Dr.Web can block access to removable media— flash-drives and any other USB devices, including webcams, cameras, and portable media players.
