I have three monitors, and would like to use two of them for a VM, the third for the host.
With mstsc, this is possible by editing the .rdp file.
With vmconnect, this isn't possible, multi-monitor is a boolean all-or-nothing.
I found this article which describes "RDP over VMBus", which should, in theory, be the best of both worlds.
Only it doesn't work.
I got my VM id by running (get-vm "vmname").id
.
My .rdp file looks like this:
full address:s:localhost
server port:i:2179
pcb:s:3f6d3195-7aaf-40f3-a071-5b6e118cc7ba;EnhancedMode=1
When I right-click -> connect, it is stuck at "Configuring remote session...".
Any ideas?
I am running Windows 10 Pro x64 2004 on both Host and VM.
Edit:
I found another article.
After adding the line negotiate security layer:i:0
, it prompts me for credentials. when I enter the credentials for the host, I get:
If I then remove ;EnhancedMode=1
, I get a different error directly after login:
