Windows 10: Remote Desktop - Device lock screen during session

Hi All,


I've just recently started using Windows 10 Pro Remote Desktop


When I remote to another device, say a PC. This causes the PC to automatically go to the lock screen. This seems to be default. I can still remotely access the PC, everything is fine except the person at the PC can only see a locked screen.


Is there any way of keeping the desktop on the PC active and view-able while the remote session is underway instead of it going to lock screen?



Thanks

:)

 

Remote Desktop - Screen resolution in remote session

I have connected to a remote desktop session and the windows in the remote session are all too small for me to see.

I have edited the remote desktop connection settings and cannot seem to make anything larger.

I am using a new Dell Inspiron Laptop which has a very high screen resolution 3840 x 2160

Any suggestions appreciated

Thank you

 

Wifi disconnects immediately after login from remote desktop session in Windows 10

I have a Thinkpad T430s running a fresh install of Windows 10 Pro (Build 10.0.14393), and it has an issue with inbound remote desktop sessions that causes the wifi connection to be dropped as soon as the remote desktop logs in, resulting in the termination of the remote session.

Observations:

• Sometimes I can see the lock screen rendered on the remote desktop for a split second before it freezes, presumably due to wifi connection loss.
  
• If I'm logged in locally at the laptop, and then try to login with the same user remotely, the local login will be booted out to the lock screen. This behaviour is as I would expect.
  
• When the remote desktop session freezes after login, I can see on the lock screen locally that there is no wifi connection (as shown by the wifi icon). Reconnection does not occur automatically here on the lock screen.
  
• Wifi connection is automatically re-established after I log in locally.
  
• If I remove the wifi hotspot from config (either through "netsh wlan delete profile name=" or through "Forget" in the UI), add the hotspot back and connect, log in remotely without first logging out locally, then the remote session will connect successfully.
  
• If I reboot the laptop after doing the step described above, then the problem returns.
  

What I've tried:

• Updated to latest WLAN driver.
  
• Installed all Windows updates.
  
• Disabled the option to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" for the WLAN device.
  

The user I'm trying to log in as is a local, non-domain user. Wifi hotspot is secured with WPA2-Enterprise and EAP-MSCHAPv2.

 

Disable Lock Screen after Remote Desktop session in Windows 10

I would like to disable the lock screen after disconnecting from a remote desktop session in Windows 10.

Either natively, or with something like a .exe shortcut to disconnect from the session on the target machine.
