Need Ability to Force Native Resolution on Remote Desktop HTML5 Web Client

Hello,

 

Not sure if this forum is also for the HTML 5 RD web client but if so, I'd like to request a feature or ask if there's a way to force the clients to use native resolution. We can force it to use web (vs .RDP) and suppress telemetry but not the native resolution slider. I tried a few DWORDS in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\RemoteDesktopWeb but no luck.

 

When we roll this out to hundreds of users, they'll all have to check that box. Would be nice if we could force it on the admin side with a reg key or the Set-RDWebClientDeploymentSetting cmdlet.

 

thanks,

Dan

  • There is NO direct way so far to my understanding, may consider the alternative on below:

     

    Command Line Parameters: You can specify the resolution directly in the command line when launching the RDP connection:

    mstsc /w:1920 /h:1080
    

    This sets the width to 1920 pixels and the height to 1080 pixels.

     

    Editing RDP Files: If you're using an RDP file, you can manually edit it to set a fixed resolution. Open the RDP file in a text editor and add or modify the following lines:

    width=1920
    height=1080
    

     

    Client-Side Settings: Some HTML5 RDP clients might allow you to set fixed resolutions through their web interface or configuration files.
