I run a virtual Windows Server 2016 machine on Microsoft Azure. This machine is joined to a forest A. Forest A is in a bidirectional trust relationship with forest B.
If I RDP to this machine with a user from forest B, I am able to establish a session, but I'm met with a black screen. I'm able to CTRL+ALT+DEL, but nothing else. In the C:\Users\
folder, I can observe that there is a folder called C:\Users\user_from_forest_b
, but it only has AppData
and ntuser.dat
. Any other user has a fully built user folder with Documents
, Downloads
, Pictures
etc.
Everything works fine if I connect with a user from forest A.
I've read certain other tips out there, with the most popular ones being to disable bitmap caching and simply hitting Ctrl+alt+end and then cancel, but neither option works. Do you have any suggestions?
