Open your RDP file (by default, it’s in system32) with the Notepad or drag-and=drop it to the browser window, and add the line to it as follows: So if you plan to have more remote desktop sessions here, or this is one of your RDP servers, better go for one of the other two methods. Neither the connection properties nor your credentials will be saved on this machine. The “Use all my monitors for the remote session” box will be checked automatically, but for this time only. Press Win+R on your keyboard to involve the Run window and type: mstsc.exe /multimon. Also, it’s a very good idea to remember or write down the folder you save the ROP file to as you may need to make some adjustments to it later (e.g., to make one of your monitors invisible from remote desktops). Go back to the General tab and click the Save as… button, so you won’t have to repeat all these steps every time you need to access this machine from remote PCs.Now, go to the Display tab and tick the ‘Use all my monitors for the remote session’ checkbox (DO NOT click the connect button, we have some more settings to tweak with):.Enter your authentication credentials, then click the Show Options button in the bottom-right corner:.Type ‘remote connection’ into the system search box to launch the app.Ok, without further due, here are the instructions for all three ways to enable multi-monitor support for the Windows Remote Desktop application on your RDC server: So for any adjustments to take effect, you’ll have to terminate all on-going RDP connections. Sounds exciting? Alrighty then, let’s roll! How to use multiple monitors during an RDP sessionĪ quick note before we start: Sadly, with the standard Windows Remote Desktop app, you can’t change your connection properties mid-session. And the connections are possible not only between physical computers, but virtual machines as well, i.a. ![]() Well, actually, the method I’m about to introduce you to, will work just fine for three, four, and even sixteen monitors at the same time. That’s why I’ve decided to make a HelpWire blog focused on using a standard Windows RDC app called Remote Desktop Connection to access dual-monitor machines. And setting up remote connections to those machines can be a lot trickier than one may think. Operating a computer with multiple monitors connected to it is a very common practice these days. Once the GPU is uninstalled, shut your PC down (don't restart if it asks you to), connect all Monitors you'd like to use and Boot into Win, download the latest GPU drivers from and install'em.Hello and welcome, my fellow tele-toilers and anyone just scrolling by! If it's not listed then restart your PC, once back in Win again open up the device manager and search for "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060" under "Display adapters", right-click on the "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060" and select "Uninstall" (Confirm with Yes, If it asks you to remove other stuff). ![]() That means, that it's able to work as intended but not until some/the following special treatment:īoot up your System with only one Monitor connected, uninstall the Graphics-Card drivers (don't restart if it asks you to do so), open up the device manager and search for "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060" under "Display adapters". The problem occurs between bios and windows but I don't know how to solve the issue. Its really annoying for me as it almost puts my PC out of use and a chore to boot up. No display on either monitor when both are plugged in, in this scenario. When I boot up, both screens wake and the BIOS motherboard screen appears then fades ready to load Windows, however before Windows appears, the screen will be black for 2 to 5 minutes, and Windows is still operating as I've logged in using my password whilst the screen is black before. ![]() My new 144hz is connected by displayport and both cables connect to my GPU (GTX 1060 3GB)ĭisconnecting the display port or HDMI cable let's the PC boot up normally and I plug the second display after loaded to solve the issues, but it's a pain and should just work. My PC was fine with one monitor, the other is a LG 22EA53 60hz and connected by HDMI. Since getting a new iiyama ProLite GB2488HSU 144Hz monitor, my PC will not boot or load correctly and I'll have black screens for up to 5 minutes before Windows log in appears. It's not ideal, as I'm losing 24 worth of fps technically, it has solved the issue, but I can't work out why it won't let me have 144hz. It would stop between BIOS and Windows previously. ***Possible Fix Update: I'm still using the same cable setup etc, I just reduced my monitors refresh rate in nvidea control panel from 144hz to 120hz and that has seemed to fix the issue with everything else staying the same.
