How do you use multiple monitors in MS Remote Desktop Connection Manager 2.7?












4















Using the RDMan from:



https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=44989


Tools->Options->Full Screen-> last checkbox is 'Use multiple monitors when necessary'



however this has no effect.



**This question is specifically in reference to RDMan, a Microsoft exe that manages multiple RDP sessions from one window (NOT windows's builtin rdp, i.e. mstsc from the runline, they are different softwares).



Works fine using mstsc:



RDMan is on Win7



Host is on WinServer 2008 R2

  • I meant what version of windows 7 (it's edition, home,pro, ultimate) are you connecting to on the other side. Multiple monitors are only supported for remote Windows 7 Ultimate and Enterprise.

  • It'd be nice to see some actual documentation on this for the newest version. social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/… suggests it's not doable for the previous version. The post suggests using Remote Desktop Plus / mstsc
