Rdp Patcher Windows 10



I often use the Windows Remote Desktop function to connect and remotely manage another Windows server. As you might know, there are many other better remote control software such as the free Virtual Network Computing (VNC) or even the popular Teamviewer, but I try to minimize the installations of third party software on the Server machines. If you don’t know what Remote Desktop is, it’s a protocol developed by Microsoft which allows you to view the display and control the mouse and keyboard of another computer at different location, as if you were sitting in front of the computer.

Apps for Desktop Enhancements. Customize your Windows and MacOS desktop environments so that they do more for you. Enhance the Windows Start menu, your file manager, search capabilities, keyboard. Add an exception to Windows Defender for the NiceHash Miner folder (after unpacking the package). Windows 7 or newer 64-bit operating system Note: Windows 10 is recommended and will provide you with a much better user experience For CPU mining, a modern CPU with SSE2 support; For AMD mining any AMD GPU with OpenCL support. For this video I used Hyper-V with the latest Windows 10 Home version (1909 & 2004) It also works on Windows 10 Pro version (1909 & 2004)Download the followi.

I never have any problems with Remote Desktop and it works as I expect it to, except for only one annoyance which is if I leave it idle for a few minutes, it auto logs off and I have to re-enter the password to login again. This is very annoying whenever I am reading the log files or the console messages that are displayed on screen. Fortunately there is quite a simple solution for how to disable remote desktop auto logoff on idle.

It took a couple of days trying to find the solution because I actually misunderstood the problem in the first place. I thought the system was auto logging out when idle but it turns out that it was the screen that was locked. No wonder setting “Never” for idle session limit in RDP Properties didn’t work.

By default Windows Server activates the screen saver if the computer has been idle for 10 minutes and the setting “On resume, display logon screen” will also be checked. So if Windows detects no activity for 10 minutes, the screen saver will be activated and when we get back to the Remote Desktop Connection, the screen saver is removed and then prompts to login. To solve this problem, you can either disable the screen saver or remove the logon screen on resume.

The solution

To disable the auto lock screen when idle, the easiest solution which requires only a click is to download this registry fix file, run it on the computer that is automatically getting locked and restart the PC for the changes to take effect. Alternatively, here are the steps if you prefer to do it manually.

1. Right click Desktop and select Personalize

2. Click Screen Saver

3. Uncheck “On Resume, display logon screen” and click OK.

Now you can remain idle on the remote desktop connection as long as you want and you won’t be locked out. And obviously this also works on an ordinary PC if you keep receiving the login screen whenever you come out from a screensaver.

If the “On Resume, display logon screen” checkbox is disabled or grayed out like what is shown at the screenshot below, it means that there is a group policy being implemented probably by your company’s network administrator to prevent the local logged in user from changing this setting.

Fortunately bypassing the policy is as easy as download and running another registry fix. We’ve provided two different registry fixes where you can either delete the policy so that it will be possible for you to manually enable/disable the settings, or you disable the option while maintaining the checkbox grayed out.

Thank you so much for sharing! I’ve got a Windows 2019 server which is continually running a script, and every time the screen locked up, the script would fail. It was driving me crazy having to constantly switch over to that session just to keep the screen alive, and all the tricks with editing group policy, disabling screen saver, keeping monitor constantly on, etc. had done no good. This appears to have finally solved it!

Hmm…this has nothing to do with Remote Desktop. It disables the computer’s screen lock, not just for Remote Desktop.

No-one said it was just for remote desktop, the article explains what the problem was and the solution.

Did you read the title of the article?

Yes I did, does it say the solution was *just* for remote desktop? It makes no difference that the problem is related to another Windows setting and not directly connected to remote desktop itself. If you get this while you’re in remote desktop, here’s how to fix it, no more, no less…

Thank you! I was getting frustrated at how often I had to log back into my RDC. I turned off the screen saver, and adjusted the power/idle settings, but it still kept locking. Ticking that check box was the one thing I was missing, and now it works great! Thank you!

In your introduction, you make it sound like VNC or TeamViewer are superior to RDP, which is wrong. VNC actually transmits video as a stream of compressed images (eg. JPEGs), i assume TeamViewer does something similar though its a bit faster. RDP just sends a stream of rendering instructions to the client OS, which then reconstructs the image. RDP compared to VNC is very low bandwidth and latency. In addition you can easily access drives and printers (without the need for a driver) from the client machine in the RDP session.

Agreed. I almost had to stop reading the article when it said that VNC was better than RDP. RDP is superior to VNC in almost every possible way. I’ve written a VNC (RFB) server. Frankly, RFB (the protocol for VNC) is a crap protocol. It’s just usually all you have available when you’re not on a Windows box.

VNC is slower, higher latency, less secure, has fewer features available, and everything beyond the basics is done with extensions that are typically vendor-specific and so only work if the client and server are from the same vendor (file transfer, for example.)

So you’re getting annoyed because someone has a different opinion and preference to you…? Are people that don’t agree with you automatically wrong?

We’re using RDP to connect to a server that when the connection is established the login launches a specific program with a switch to activate one section of the program.
All of that is working fine. However, the 10 minute “lock” kicks in and the session has to be terminated (no keyboard available to the user since this is a public viewing station.)
There is no screen saver on the server, no screen saver on the workstation. Yet the session still locks the TS session.
Here’s the flow:
WinXP Pro workstation –> Windows 2003 server
LAN connection 100mb/s

I have set the idle time and disconnect times on the server to NEVER, but the sessions are still being locked after 10 minutes.
Any ideas or direction would be greatly appreciated.
