  1. Remote Desktop can’t access files on Mac


    I have the Remote Desktop app on my OS connected to my Windows device at work. I'm not able to upload any files from my mac to my company portal using the app. It only shows me local files on my Windows. I have previously resolved this by choosing my OS desktop for file redirection from the settings. and it would show on the menu bar on the left as seen in the SS. However, this is no longer working and the issue is still unresolved.

    :)

  2. remote access to mac computer?

    You can use SSH to access the shell on your mac.. and you can use the VNC viewer to "remote desktop" onto your mac..

    I use both, particularly ssh, frequently!

    Does Windows 10 REALLY NOT support Remote Desktop? Only a couple days ago I could have accessed my Remote Desktop; now I can't. Microsoft is saying that Windows
    10 does not support Remote Desktop and is suggesting an upgrade that costs over $300.00. REALLY?

    Playing audio while using Microsoft Remote Desktop client on Mac to access Windows

    Versions

    • Mac OS Monterey (12.1)
    • Microsoft Remote Desktop Version 10.7.2 (1965)
    • Target Machine: Windows 10 Pro 21H1

    • Option is set accordingly on the Mac RDP client (see insert below)

    Remote Desktop can’t access files on Mac b5cea649-8fb0-47bd-89fd-a73df757eb6f?upload=true.png


    Problem

    • When connected to the Windows machine, no audio plays on the Windows machine
    Workaround

    • Before connecting via RDP from the Mac, launch any application by logging directly into Windows and generate audio
    • Let the audio continue playing
    • Initiate connection from the Mac RDP client to Windows
    • Audio continues to play locally on Windows, as desired
    • End the application
    • Then, any new audio played on the Windows machine plays locally as expected
    • If I disconnect the RDP session and re-connect, Windows audio stops working again
    • Have to repeat workaround
    Has anyone else noticed this? Any pointers? Thanks!
