Didn't work. I don't know if there is such msc in windows...any additional file i need to download?Thanks!

you don't need to download anything.

if that does not work try with full path C:\windows\system32\sbmgr.msc

Hi Aurimas,

I've try it, no sbmgr.msc under system32, neither remoteprograms.msc. My client is Win 7 SP1, any idea why?

Thanks!

I assumed you wanted to do this on the RDSH server, I don't know if you can do it from windows 7.

No,

I want to do it from windows 7 (RemoteApp and Desktop Connection), not the configuration manager. Its one of Control Panel item, so i guess it will be .cpl or .dll to run it, just don't know the name yet.

 

Anyone has any idea?

Thanks!

for remote desktop connection you can Run: mstsc

and for remote app I doubt there is a way, you have to own a configured .rdp file for it if I'm not mistaking.

I understand to remote a computer i can use mstsc.

I dont want to do that, i want to access remoteapp and desktop connection via command based, so i can automate setup connection, no need to drop by to client 1 by 1, i understand we can use rdp file an option, but i believe there is a way to setup the connection automatically using script or something like it.

Thanks!

I know this is pretty old now, but I finally found it for anybody who would be interested.  The command is "control /name Microsoft.RemoteAppAndDesktopConnections"
