Multiple monitors problem

Hi, I'm trying to use multiple monitors in WVD without success even I activated the fonction in PowerShell. Any ideas or solutions?

Yann96 the following documentation explains how to configure the display settings from the client side: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/remote/remote-desktop-services/clients/windowsdesktop#managed-desktops

However, if you have configured the custom property for multi-mon from the server side, it should take effect automatically.

Yann96 OK, that explains it. You are using the Remote Desktop client from the Microsoft Store. That client doesn't currently support multiple monitors.

I recommend you install the main Windows Desktop client and give that at try:

Yann96What David is referring to in the link he provided is that you can right-click on the desktop resource from the RD Client and click 'Settings' then on the right side make sure that 'Use multiple displays' is on and the dispays you want to use is selected.
