RDS on single screen

Copper Contributor

Hi all,

 

We have a farm based on Windows Server 2022 Datacenter with full desktop provided to users (no remote apps at the moment). some of my users have a dual monitor setup, and when they connect to rds based on their remote desktop configuration the session start on both monitors or on a single one.

 

is possible to deploy a policy so the session start for everyone in full screen on just one monitor?

 

Kind regards

Hi Marfo91,

 

We provide users this script to change default RDP multi monitor behavior when connecting:

 

$commands = Get-WmiObject Win32_Process -Filter "name = 'mstsc.exe'" | Select-Object CommandLine
ForEach ($command in $commands) {
    
    $commstr = " " + $command
    if ($commstr -Like "*multimon*")
    {
        $newcommstr = $commstr
        $newcommstr = $newcommstr.Replace(' /multimon', '')
        $newcommstr = $newcommstr.Replace('"','')
        $newcommstr = $newcommstr.replace('@{CommandLine=', '')
        $newcommstr = $newcommstr.replace('}', '')
        $newcommstr = $newcommstr.Trim(' ')
    }
}
Invoke-expression $newcommstr

 

 

hello, thanks for the reply. but the first row returns empty variable so the script wont work.
