Windows Version 24H2 Causes Remote Desktop to Freeze on reconnect.
- Feb 20, 2025
We had the same problem with the 24H2 update. On our office computers we made the following changes that fixed the remote desktop issue for us.
We went to the local computer policy > computer configuration > administrator templates > Windows components > remote desktop services > remote desktop session host > connections and enabled the select network detection on the server and set the drop down to turn off connect time detect and continuous network detect.
We also went to the remote desktop session host > remote session environment and enabled the enforce removal of remote desktop wallpaper.
I hope this helps your network.
So I did what any diligent worker would do; I researched. You ever Google something and end up with more options than IKEA furniture? “Install new updates; it'll fix it!” – Yeah, right! If I had a penny for every time I heard that line! I’m starting to think Microsoft has a team of developers playing roulette with our operating systems. They just spin the wheel, whatever it lands on, boom, that’s the next patch!
Please Re-Read the Post all the latest updates and patches have been deployed. No resolve. I also researched and opened a ticket with Microsoft, they are aware of the problem, and working on a fix.
