    How to set time limit for disconnected RDP sessions in Windows [​IMG]

  2. "Access denied 0x80004005" issue - RDP session - Windows server 2016 - User logon time out

    I have scheduled a task running all the time on my Windows server 2016.

    Connecting through RDP, few functionalities require user to be logged on to the server to be processed but it seems user log offs after a time limit. After certain time limit, task was facing "Access denied 0x80004005"
    Error

    i have tried changing the following in RDP session host settings in group policy:

    • automatic re connection -> enabled
    • deny logoff of an administrator logged in to the console session -> enabled
    • configure keep alive connection interval -> 99999
    • session time limits -> disabled
    But they didnt help my task, still its facing "Access denied 0x80004005" Error

    Limit windows server 2016 RDP sessions to one

    Hi,

    By default the number of available RDP sessions is 2, but I'd like to limit the number of RDP sessions of a windows server 2016 to only one (even if the user is an administrator). ¿Is that possible?

    Thanks in advance,

    Patxi

    RDP session is getting temporarily disconnected

    I am regularly being disconnected from my remote desktop (rdp) session to a Windows 11 VM. I have used remote desktop for many years and work in IT. I have not had this type of experience before. When renaming files or starting a file transfer or performing similar operations, I keep getting temporarily disconnected. It seems like these operations are causing a spike in bandwidth utilization that interrupts the rdp session. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone know what to do about it? It is making it very difficult to use this particular VM.
