Lost saved password of browser after rdp login

Qiwei Zhang 21

I find that I will lost my saved password of browser (e.g. chrome, edge, etc.) after I login the PC used RDP client. This has happened many times. I don't know what happened after RDP client login. By the way, the account of RDP and local login is the same one.

hi Karlie,
I use the different session each time. But I use the same account for each login. Could it be that every time a new session is created, the account password saved by the browser would be lost?

I have not used any user profile. I just use a IP address username and password to login remote PC.

If you are not using any user profile solution, your environment could be non-persistent. Every time you create a new session, the browser won't save your password.
Except browser password, how about other settings ?

I think that I understand your meaning. I have not found other unusual things.
What should I do for using RDP? How can I use RDP and still keep the "old" information.

Hello @Qiwei Zhang

To work around this issue, you can enable Group policy: Restrict users to a single Remote Desktop Services session.

Policy path:
Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Connections > Restrict Remote Desktop Services users to a single Remote Desktop services session.

After enable this policy setting, users who log on remotely by using Remote Desktop Services will be restricted to a single session (either active or disconnected) on that server. If the user leaves the session in a disconnected state, the user automatically reconnects to that session at the next logon.

Best Regards
Karlie
