Hello support,
I have a new Windows server 2019 standard installation. It is a Hyper -V host and has a VM for RDS. whenever I reboot the host server it comes up with the Unexpected shutdown Dialog box. I do not see any errors in the event viewer like 6008 or 41.
I appreciate any help or input.
Thanks,
Jamshid
Hi there,
Using remote desktop, is it possible to set some kind of default remote app instead of a full desktop environment for a specific user ?
Currently, I'm able to do this using 2 ways :
- by creating an RDP file which contains some remoteapp* parameters, and pass it to mstsc.exe
- using a Custom User Interface policy for a dedicated app user (for example calc@demo.com user will have win32calc.exe as custom user interface) thanks to security filters.
The first way involves client-side configuration. I don't want that.
The second way works but creates an empty fullscreen background around my custom user interface program. If I close my program, the user is now facing a background without any further action possible but closing RDP session. I could build a wrapper around my program to call shutdown -L but it requires more work. I don't want to use a batch file.
So ideally, I want the best of both worlds : a server-side configuration only, and where only the app must be visible to the end user. Without any empty fullscreen background around it.
I'm using Windows Server 2016
Many thanks for your help.
Hi,
We have a very odd issue with our RD setup, and I have searched high and low for a solution, but no luck so far.
So, here's the problem.
We have a local domain with a local server running win server 2016, 5 workstations with win 10 pro and a shared network printer. Locally everything works fine and as expected. Every user also have a remote desktop into an off site server running win server 2012 to access a specific application.
Printing to our locally shared network printer through this RD session works fine sometimes, and sometimes nothing happens at all. Sometimes restarting RD helps, sometimes not. Sometimes restarting the local workstation helps, sometimes not...
The same thing happens even if we set the workstations up with locally installed printer drivers, and not run it through our local print server.
What gives me the headache is that it sometimes work, and sometimes not. There doesn't seem to be any particular pattern either. It can work well for a whole week, and then fail 3 times in a day. All the users fail to print independent of each other, meaning that even if two users can't print, the other three still can...
I hope some of you may have an idea of what the underlying problem may be or where to start troubleshooting.
Thanks a lot!
Thomas
I am having issues with RDS 2016, I have just renewed the SSL certificate and imported in but it is erroring out saying
Your session ended because of an unexpected server authentication certificate was received from the remote pc
I have confirmed the new SSL certificate is correct and working, I have checked the local certificate store under personal and noticed the local server has expired and it will not let me renew it, it gives me an error of no certificate templates available.
Can anyone assist?

Scenario....
Single server hosting all roles, RD Connection Broker, RD Session host, RD Gateway, RD Licensing, RD WebAccess.
All webclient pieces installed without error.
Cert is official SHA2 cert from InCommon. The cert has been imported into IIS. In the Deployment Properties, Under "Certificates", the cert is showing as "Trusted" and "OK" for all role services.
In the RD Gateway Manager mmc, on the SSL Certificate tab for the server properties, the cert is showing the certificate from InCommon as being installed.
Problem....
The error is reproducible on Chrome or the new IE Dev (chromium) browser. I navigate to the page secured with SSL. I successfully authenticate. I select the calculator app. It shows "Opening Port"...."Establishing Connection", then in the browser I get...
Oops, we couldn't connect to "Calculator"
Your session ended because an unexpected server authentication certificate was received from the remote PC. Ask your admin or tech support for help.
Certificate information:
Server Name: myserver name blah blah blah.
The thumbprint is showing the same as the cert I have installed.
If I run a browser in dev mode....I can see the error as...
2019-05-13T17:22:25.555Z Connection(ERR): The connection generated an internal exception with disconnect code=CertMismatch(7), extended code=<null>, reason=The cert from the remote server did not match the expected certificate (length mismatch).Where is the mismatch error coming from? I have read so many articles on this and have re-installed the server so many times, I can't figure out for the life of me what I am doing wrong.
Please help!

Hi, on some clients when connecting to a remoteapp the abort button is not displayed correctly.
On one of the clients where this problem is occurring is Windows 10 Enterprise Version 1809 (Build 17763.437) installed. The OS of the RDS-Server is Windows Server 2016 Standard.
Any ideas how to solve the problem?
I have a (old) ERP system setup as a RemoteApp.
When you go to spool invoices etc and display them, it goes to generate them, brings up WordPad but then comes up with the following message:
"\\ServerFQDN\c$\Program Files (x86)\Application Folder\Sub Folder\Filename.txt
Cannot find this file
Please verify the correct file name and path are given."
It has never written the file.
If I open WordPad as a RemoteApp and manually browse to that location I have full access and create and modify a file there so I dont believe its a permissions issue.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
We have a WinForms application we use as a remote desktop app and recently we've had multiple users report a situation where clicking on one monitor actually interacts with windows on another monitor. Restarting the remote desktop application seems to fix the problem. Our users have a two monitor setup.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Hello to All!
We have a problem with RDS feature on 2016 Server.
Server was deployed with no CALs installed and worked some time in a trial mode. Then owners of this server bought 30 Per User licenses trough SPLA programm and I was asked to activate and install licenses in it.
Before I connect to server I saw that owners are now in procces of deleting grace period registry entry (because grace period has ended and they was in big hurry to make it work again).
After all this and mine (standart activation and installing licenses proccess) manipulations server now did not want to see legal licenses and continuing working in trial mode (grace period still ticking). Last manipulations was to delete grace registry again and reboot the sever (I found similar situation https://www.360ict.nl/blog/no-remote-desktop-licence-server-availible-on-rd-session-host-server-2012/) but it did not helped and now grace period start ticking from beginnig (120 days).
I found info that 2016 server is still can issue Per User CALs to local users in Workgroup environment and made all manipulations with local group policies https://digitalbamboo.wordpress.com/2017/04/05/deploy-remote-desktop-services-in-a-workgroup-easily/ and other stuff and now in diagnostics there have no warning and all green.
Maybe some one faced similar problem or have any suggestions I would be very graceful. I'm desperate already.
When connecting from Windows 10 Home to Windows 10 Pro using the RD app, I get a message "Your password may have expired or the remote pc might not accept blank passwords". My password has not expired (I tried changing it and using the new password), and I am definitely not sending a blank password (the credentials are not saved, and I type them in every time).
Using the desktop app works, but it cuts off after a few seconds, but that's a different issue. When connected, the connection is shown as 'Excellent', so I am not having Internet connection issues.
Using the Android RD app from my phone works perfectly.Hello,
I'm receiving a few errors with my RDS 2016 build. Randomly a user, upon logging in will be given a temporary profile. I do the normal remediation steps by deleting the temp profile in the registry and Advance User options, the server is rebooted and they can log in fine. But after a while the error comes back again. All other users can remote in fine with no issues, it only effects one user at a time. A few errors I see....
1. Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
2.
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{D63B10C5-BB46-4990-A94F-E40B9D520160}

administrative tool.
The RDS server shows this error
3. Remote Desktop Services could not apply a user desktop for a user account with a SID of S-1-5-21-3444666529-4500789-23435591xx-xxxxx. A temporary profile was enforced for the user. Verify that the user profile disk settings are correct. The error code is 0x15.135

Noob here that's temporarily filling in for our main admin.
Issue: I setup a new user but now need to make some tweaks remotely... however when I try to connect I get the error :
"The connection was denied because the user account is not authorized for remote login"
Is there any way to enable this from the DC / active directory? Or do I need to do this from the local device/user?
The articles I have read thus far are a bit outdated or have not helped.
Thanks in advance and sorry for being noob.

Hello
We purchased some per device RDS Cals. Now we find some user use two computers（a desktop and a laptop), We'd like to convert our Per Devcie RDS Cals to Per user RDS Cals.
Does microsoft provide a route to convert Per Device to Per User.
Dear concern,
I am using 200 RDS Device CALs. I am using 2 RDS server in workgroup environment. I installed RDS host and licensing role in my one server and installed 200 RDS CALs in this server. Also installed RDS host role in another server and map of the first one server as it's licensing server via local policy. Users randomly connect to these two server via Remote Desktop. Licensing server shown the 200 device CAL in console but when user connect to RDS server via thin client (non Microsoft endpoint) they can establish connection only for one hour and got a warning message"There is a problem with your license for Remote Desktop and the session will end in 60 minutes. Contact your system administrator to resolve this issue"then user forcibly disconnected. I had seen two things that RDS server didn't assign temporary license for thin client user and RDS license not count down, it fixed on 200.
Please response me ASAP.
Thanks,
Babu
