Windows 10 Concurrent Rdp Connections

 admin



I got up a requirement to setup Windows 10 in a cloud from where we want to have concurrent users on it at the same time. It is an easy step for System Administrator on Windows Server, however, as being the normal operating system, it wasn’t easy to fulfill this requirement on Windows 10.

I googled and tried to come up with a solution. I have seen few tools on the internet too but they are not working properly with the latest Windows update too.

Press Windows Logo Key (also known as Windows Key) and R key simultaneously to open the Run page. Type gpedit.msc and press OK to open Local Group Policy Editor. Go to the following path: Computer Configuration - Administrative Templates - windows Component - Remote Desktop Services - remote desktop session host - connections. Mar 04, 2019 When future Windows 10 client versions are released, just grab the updated INI file and deploy it. It really is that easy! To test RDPWrapper, reboot the client machine and log on to that computer as a standard user. From your admin machine, launch a remote desktop session to that computer and you should be able to log on as well. By default, system supports 2 simultaneously sessions. That means, if you had a user account log on the system locally, then, there is only one user allowed to establish remote desktop connection to the system at same time. You can open Task Manager – Users tab, to check current log on user accounts and sessions.

In the end, I manage to get it done and thought to share my step on my blog. Hereby, I modify the termsrv.dll file from the System32 folder to get it done.

I tried RDP Wrapper but it didn’t help for the newer version of Windows 10. So the following solution would be convenient.

Solution:

  • First backup the DLL file to be on the safe side and take the ownership and provide full rights of termsrv.dll file for your profile.
  • After this, you have to stop Terminal Server before modifying it
  • Install any HEX editor tool to modify the DLL file. I have used HxD Hex Editor which is freeware too.
  • You have to replace the string and be careful while doing it as you are modifying the system file. Strings are different as per Windows 10 build.
  • The current Windows 10 build I am working is 1703 and have modified the following things:
  • Once you saved the DLL file and reboot the machine, it will work to have concurrent user sessions.
  • However, if your Windows version is different as listed above, then kindly check the listed one
