| | Remote Desktop Logs off on Disconnect I have searched for this but never found an answer. I have used Remote Desktop for years with XP and Vista and was always able to work in visual studio(or any other program) stop work go home RD to my work computer and keep working. Then Disconnect and the next morning come back to my work computer and continue right were I left off. But in Windows 7 when ever I disconnect from a Remote Desktop It logs me off closing all my open programs. Anyone know how to have the same behavior as RDP for Vista or XP where I can continue working back and forth from work to home without logging off? |

| | I am using RTM and have not had this problem but something I have noticed is when I sit down in front of my Windows 7 machine after disconnecting it is not locked. There is no indication that my session is still running and any user can logon. If I logon my session and programs are still up and running. fast user switching... |

| | Perhaps the RC did not include fast User Switching and that is my problem. I will wait to purchase the RTM in Oct so I dont have to do a reinstall this month and another next month |

| | I can give this a try - running Windows 7 RTM 32bit on my laptop and Windows 7 RTM 64bit on my desktop. I have been searching for a way to force Windows 7 to wake up / stay awake during morning hours and only sleep at night - I finally found SetPower (see my newest thread in this forum) and hopefully that will solve all sorts of issues that I was having.... Grabbing my laptop now to verify if it is locking / logging off. I'll try it both ways (from 32 to 64 bit and from 64 to 32 bit) to see if it makes a difference. |

| | Confirmed. RTM is handling disconnects correctly - whether you go to the start orb --> > --> Disconnect or you simply click the X on the RD bar at the top. In fact, it even tells you this:  Since this is solved in the RTM, I am marking this thread solved as well. |

| | For my money I reckon UltraPlanet has the right answer. I came across this thread because I have the exact same issue with my work box on win XP - and the thing in common? No fast user switching enabled. MiddleTommy what happens if you disconnect and then reconnect in 5 - 10 mins? I can reconnect in this time and still log into the same session. If I wait over an hour my old session is gone and I'm logging into a new session. Turning on fast user switching is not an option because the XP box is on a domain... I will keep searching... A. Ps. JohnGalt yeah I get the "This will disconnect ...your programs will continue to run..." dialog in XP too but it still darn destroys the session just the same...
