    Access "Safely Remove Hardware" From A RDP Session As A Non-Admin User


    Hello~

    Perhaps this has been answered elsewhere, but my searches are failing me this evening.

    If I open a Remote Desktop session to my Windows 10 laptop and log in as a user that's a member of the Administrators group, I'm readily able to access the "Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media" option from the taskbar.

    If I take that same user and remove them from the Administrators group, then log out and (remotely) log back in, the "Safely Remove" icon is not available.

    So, the question is: does anyone know how to enable access to the full "Safely Remove" feature for a non-admin user from within an RDP session?

    Thanks in advance!

    - Nathan

    P.S. Windows 10 version: 2004 (build 19041.450).

    :)

    RDP to non-admin account not working


    I can RDP to an account that is an admin account but not to a non-admin account.
    I have read to check the users and make sure the appropriate accounts have been added to the user list but the option to view or edit the user list is missing from my settings window:

    Access "Safely Remove Hardware" From A RDP Session As A Non-Admin User [​IMG]

    [Advanced Button:]

    Access "Safely Remove Hardware" From A RDP Session As A Non-Admin User [​IMG]

    is there something I can check/change in the reg editor or in group policies or something to make this appear or perhaps just to enable it directly for that account?
    For reference this appears the same if I'm logged in as admin or as non-admin. (have to give admin privileges anyway to see this window in the first place)
    Thanks to anyone who can help

  4. Access "Safely Remove Hardware" From A RDP Session As A Non-Admin User

    "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
