I have a single Remote Desktop Server on the domain.
I have added the server to the RDS Access Servers group on the local server and Active Directory.
All of the Remote Apps are set to be visible in RD Web Access.
I did setup the server and publish the apps prior to adding the Remote Desktop Web Access role.

Can i add custom sign in option in addition to already available sign in options (password, smart Card) ?
Custom sign in option is related to smart card but without reading certificate on smart card. Rather it will perform sign in on other attributes fetched through smart card and comparing them againstemployee ID attribute of AD?

RDP users (Citrix XenApp) are getting connections refused/dropped and a black screen. This is Citrix MCS spawned terminal services on Windows Server 2012 R2. On the server seeing these messages:
Log Name: Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager/Operational Source: Microsoft-Windows-TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager Date: 5/7/2019 12:08:15 PM Event ID: 36 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: User: SYSTEM Computer: CTXIAHYP004.mydomain.com Description: An error occurred when transitioning from CsrConnected in response to EvCsrInitialized.

After extensive Internet search with these symptoms I am coming up empty.
I reviewed EventTracker and related MicrosoftHelp but these recommendations do not seem to apply in this case or are too vague to be useful. Those articles suggest a server resource constraint (we do not see this, unless it was temporary and is no longer present when the system event occurs), registry corruption (this seems very unlikely, but even if true, how do we determine which registry hive or key is corrupt?) or a service that needs restarting (which service? we do not see any errors showing failed or stopped services).
Any other tips?
Hi Folks,

Hi, I've this issue after migration of RDS server from 2012 R2 to 2016 and client have Windows 10 1709 but with Windows 10 1703 no issue.
Any suggestions?
I have a windows 10 computer and it has a hyperv windows 10 VM within it. When I try to log into the VM using enhanced session mode of HyperV, which requires RDP support, my logon is refused with the classic 'you need the right to sign in...".
I have verified the following:
The account I am using to logon is an administrator account and also has the User right 'allow logon on through terminal services'
Remote desktop connection is enabled through control panel system.
Firewall port for RDP is open and allows anyone in.
Is there something I have missed?
Thanks

Every time I log into RDS, I have to re-"Select which icons appear on the taskbar" to have my notification shown in the system tray. Every time. I have UPD and Redirected Folders. In User Profile Disks setup within the RDS setup, I chose "Store all user settings and data on the user profile disk". Yet, it's not saving my selection of icons that I want displayed within my system tray upon logging off. What do I need to do so that users don't have to keep re-selecting every time they log into RDS? It seems to defeats the purpose of using UPD, i.e., is unable to roam properly. Thank you! -John Babbitt-
Hello, I've got a question regarding the use of VDI and RDS at the same time.
We managed hotels and most of our front desk computers will be required to use VDI and not RDS due to software that has to be installed at each front desk pc for credit card and room keys and it won't work on RDS since each reader is independent.
My question is if we setup VDI for the front desk computers which will use Dell Wyse ThinOS and then all the other computers in the Hotel are RDS on Dell Wyse ThinOS can we set it up so that if a user logs into a front desk computer it goes to the VDI machine and then if they sign into a back office terminal it goes to the RDS server?
If that's possible do you just have the wyse terminal set to sign into the VDI machine using the vdi hostname or would you still point it to the Broker?
For RDS I've went into the DNS and put in a A record since we have multiple RDS servers. How would this work with VDI?
The other question is what is the difference between buying a VDI license vs just buying a Windows 10 license and putting that on a Hyper-V VM?
Thanks
Good Morning,
Hoping to get some insight on troubleshooting this.
I have a brand new single instance Windows 2016 Standard Remote Application and Desktop Server.
The server hosts the following roles;
Gateway
Licensing
Connection Broker
Web Access
The server is protected via a public CA Cert and works as far as being a Gateway, and Web Access is concerned. Users can connect thru it to other servers via gateway and can open and launch applications via the Web page.
When users try the add the URL https://servername/RDWeb/Feed/Webfeed.aspx in the RADC applet in control panel, they receive an error that they are using Incorrect Credentials. When they type in their credentials in either DomainName\username or username@domainname format it errors out and they need to try again or cancel.
I have looked in the event log in the server and while I can see the transactions happening in the IIS logs, the end user never is allowed to log in or receives apps.
Could use some insights here?
If I type the URL correctly in a web browser, I receive a login prompt which once submitted provides me what appears to be an encrypted token.
We have a WinForms application we use as a remote desktop app and recently we've had multiple users report a situation where clicking on one monitor actually interacts with windows on another monitor. Restarting the remote desktop application seems to fix the problem. Our users have a two monitor setup.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
We have a RDS (Remote Desktop Services) deployment, and recently went through the process of installing the HTML5 web client as per the directions at:
Our deployment is hosted on domain A, which has an active directory instance. There is also domain B with its own active directory instance, there is a two way trust between the two.
The problem we are having is that the traditional RD Web Access works fine for all users, but when users from domain B log on to the HTML 5 web client and try to open an app they get a message "We couldn't connect to the gateway because of an error". At the same time the browser console shows the following error:
Connection(ERR): The connection generated an internal exception with disconnect code=GatewayProtocolError(52), extended code=, reason=Gateway tunnel authorization failed with error code=2147965403
During troubleshooting we’ve tried:
Any ideas on other areas we can look at?
Hello colleagues
When we are doing such config (enable multiple sessions per user):
Computer Configuration\ Administrative Templates\ Windows Components\ Remote Desktop Services\ Remote Desktop Session Host\ Connections
Restrict Remote Desktop Services users to a single Remote Desktop Services session Disabled
We are not able to reconnect to any disconnected session that was running previously.
It seems that it was mentioned here for Inside build, but we have same...
Any solutions for this problem?

Im running some batch files my self for all the users, so i wont block for batch file running.
How do I stop or block for these creative studens. :-(

Hi,
I tried to install .net 1.1 on our Server 2016 RDP server, however it mucked up the ISAPI filters on IIS, so it was not working.
I have removed the one with the extra \ in it and recreated the default x86 and x84 ones, how do I know they are working though, and are they even used for our Remote Desktop Gateway?
Everything seems to be up and running by the way.
Hello Team,
I have the below issue:
Here is my RDS environment:
I have only one server 2012 R2 standard with the below roles installed
I have published few remote apps and I was able to access them using RD web feed till yesterday.
Example : https://contoso.com/RDWeb/Feed/webfeed.aspx
I do have installed the SSL certificate on my server and provided the same to RD web.
But today while I use the same url to access the remote apps I get the below error message
"The remote computer cannot be authenticated due to problems with its security certificate. security certificate problems might indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send to the remote computer"
Error code - 0x80072f8f,0x20
Now I can only access the remote apps through RD web access ( https://FQDN/RDWeb)
Please help me in fixing this issue.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

I came from the VM Ware remote desk top services so stumbling a little getting up and running. I have a windows 2019 farm built and working with published apps and 2 windows 10 pools one pooled and one personal. Everything is working across HTTPS including html 5 where I have an issue is with some thin clients I am running ( RDP protocol ) . I point them at my RD Connection Broker server and added the reg entry to redirect to my windows 10pooled pool everything works great. With only one RD Connection Broker ( in this case 2 clustered ) how can I redirect some thin clients to the personal pool and others to the pooled pool. Thanks for any help you can give me here.
Hello,
I have accidentally removed HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSLicensing from registry. Now I have login errors - licensing issues. Can somebody help how to recreate this MSLicensing key to log to RDS Server. I have Server 2008R2 logging to server 2003. On server 2003 I have terminal license server . Sorry for bad english. I am not native speaker.
I published two RemoteApp from Windows Server 2016.
Upon some action these apps loses the focus and other windows become active in the foreground: very annoying.
The only workaround I found at present is to keep all other windows minimized.
Both apps are "legacy apps" partially developed with Visual Basic that use legacy custom controls, I suppose.
I searched online resolutions but all methods seems related to previous version of Windows server, not fully patched.
The clients are Windows 10 Professional v1709. Both server and client are fully patched
What I tried, without success:
- several app compatibility modes
- the well-known registry tweak on client
- using two old version of mstsc.exe and mstscax.dll
Any help appreciated.
We have two W2019 Servers running both with the Server RD Session Host role installed. Lets call them Server A and Server B.
Our idea is that the user does logon on Server A, accessing the Applications from Server B.
Basically this does work well however file type association seems not to be working in this environment. We are getting the following event on Server A:
Event ID: 1026
Source: RemoteApp and Desktop Connections
"The installation of the default connection has been cancelled. A default connection cannot be used on a system that is part of a Remote Desktop Services deployment."
Default connection to webfeed.aspx has be configured via GPO and has been applied successful, file type association is configured for the shared Application also.
On Server A the file type association is not working so the user can not open a file from Windows Explorer directly.
As the Event Log Warning does it say really clear is it not possible to use shared Applications on a Desktop Environment with working file type association ?
