Windows 10: Remote Desktop broken on Windows 10 1903, but only on one PC...

Basically I have a headless Windows 10 server that I use RDP to access. Up until 1903's installation it's been fine but after installing 1903 I was only able to log into a black screen with a cursor until the system forcibly disconnects. I tried a couple of things (like disabling persistent bitmap caching), which produced nothing useful, and ended up rolling it back to 1809, where it resumed working. None of the other PCs where I installed 1903 exhibited this behavior (connecting properly when an RDP request is made, including another headless server).

I'll accept that I have to use 1809 on this system for now but what I'd like to know is how do I know when it might be safe to try and update it to 1903 again? It isn't 100% necessary for me to run 1903 on this system but I like having all my systems running at the most up-to-date baseline as a matter of principle.

Windows 10 - Remote Desktop

Hi,

We will surely assist you with the issue you are facing with Windows 10.

I suggest you to refer the below steps and see if this helps.

  Verify my port forwarding settings were properly forwarding to my computers local IP address
  
  • run "cmd.exe" and then type "ipconfig". Find your IP from that list

[*]

• Make sure your firewall settings are open

Windows 10 1903 RemoteFX broken.

I thought I would open up the discussion on this since I can see no sign of it mentioned anywhere yet.

Basically RemoteFX is currently broken in Windows 10 1903 at least with generation 2 machines.

Basically neither the HtyperV client or Remote Desktop will connect. It seems to try to but fails.

Tested with initial subscriber download of 1903 and also with May cumulative update which I assume turns it into the release version of 1903.

I am well aware it is no longer a supported feature but putting this out there.

I am sure it is easily reproducible but if you need anything from me please let me know.

Cheers.

Tom.
