Is there a way to make use of Remote Desktop parameters, such as the "/admin" command line parameter, when using the modern version of the Remote Desktop app?
I need to be able to use the /admin switch to administer one of our servers. Traditionally, I just used the desktop version of the Remote Desktop client (i.e. "**mstsc.exe /admin**"). I'm looking to see if I can also use the modern version of the app with the 'admin' switch.
I couldn't find an "Admin" flag in Settings or in any documentation. My guess is, an "admin" switch isn't supported in the modern app, but I wanted to confirm whether or not this is true.
Thanks for the help!
