rdp sessions

About this tag
Discussions tagged with 'rdp sessions' on WindowsForum.com cover issues encountered during Remote Desktop Protocol sessions. One thread describes external hard drives ignoring the 'Turn off hard disk after' power setting, with drives turning off much faster during RDP sessions, sometimes after only five seconds. Another thread involves domain admin account lockouts triggered from domain PCs, where event 4740 logs point to specific computers. A third thread reports PDF readers freezing in RDP sessions on Server 2012 R2 terminal servers, causing printing failures and missing printer errors, while other applications like Word print normally. These threads highlight troubleshooting challenges with RDP session behavior, including power management, security lockouts, and application compatibility.
