TSPlus changes Remote Desktop behavior to RemoteApp

Post by coffeegirl » Wed Mar 01, 2017 3:46 pm

Hi,

I installed TSPlus and generated a RemoteApp client with a single application program, and calling it works fine, displaying the remote program on my local desktop.

But I found out there is also some unwanted behaviour when using the normal Microsoft Remote Desktop for connecting to the server.
The server is a Windows 10 pro virtual machine on a Proxmox server.
The local computers have also Windows 10 pro.

Using the normal Remote Desktop now also calls the program configured in the TSPlus RemoteApp client immediately, instead of presenting the user desktop. This is regardless whether the RemoteApp client is also running on the local pc or not.
The only exception is the administrator account, which is reachable when no RemoteApp client is running at the same time.

I would prefer some user accounts that use the TSPlus RemoteApp client with the configured program, and other user accounts that use classic Remote Desktop to simply open the remote user desktop.
Or even better: using the TSPlus RemoteApp client always open the specified program, but using the RemoteDesktop always open just the remote user desktop, for any user. And optionally, there might be users that are allowed to connect using the RemoteApp, but not using the Remote Desktop.
Is there a way to achieve this (or at least some of it)? How to do it?

Thank you very much.

Hello,

In order to achieve this, you need to use the admin tool to publish and assign applications to your users and groups. Doing so, you will be able to provide a remote desktop or a unique application to whom you want.

I recommend you to watch this video to get you started with TSplus : terminalserviceplus.com/videos/start-your-remote-desktop-solution.php

You will find here a documentation on how to publish new applications : terminalserviceplus.com/docs/application-publishing

And how to assign these applications to users : terminalserviceplus.com/docs/assigning-applications-to-users-or-groups

Thank you very much, this helped me.
I assigned just the one application tho the users who shall be restricted to it, and the remote desktop plus the application to the other ones.
Now I have just the effect I need.
