Multiple Monitors in Remote Session

2

Following Situation:

On my desktop computer, I have attached 4 monitors (works great, as it should). If I start a remote session (Microsoft RDP or HP RGS) to another desktop computer with an onboard graphics card and no monitor attached, I only get 1 screen. How can I use all 4 monitors in a remote session?

mstsc /span is not an option because if I maximize a window it will blow off to all 4 screens.

What happens if you check "use all displays for remote connection" in the "Display" tab of the remotedesktop GUI? – Lenniey – 2017-02-08T07:51:30.007

It still appears only on 1 screen – aston_zh – 2017-02-08T08:53:02.070

Check the /multimon switch for mstsc – Lenniey – 2017-02-08T11:35:06.820

What version of Windows is on the computer you are connecting to? AFAIK, the "Use all displays" checkbox only works on newer versions, in which case your only option is the /span flag. – wysiwyg – 2017-02-14T21:58:50.420
