If I have credentials saved for an RDP connection, it logs me in when I connect. But if the session locks (my servers all timeout after 10-15 minutes and lock), I have to type my password to unlock (or cheat and close/reopen the connection :-)

Is there a way to resend the credentials and unlock an existing open, locked RDP session? I know LogMeIn sessions have the option to log in/unlock a session using the credentials you logged in with, but they obviously have the LogMeIn client software installed. Not sure if it's even possible with RDP.

Hi,
As far as I know it's now possible, but I will keep an eye on it, if I see something, I will add this.

You can always just close the connection and reopen it.

Hi guys,
It's not perfect, but at least I could add a reconnect command.

Hey that sounds good enough for me...I find myself closing and reopening connections all the time actually, also with LogMeIn connections if I reboot, the webpage says "disconnected" but I have to close the tab and reopen again later. If LogMeIn could have a "reconnect" that would essentially reload the URL again like a fresh tab, and RDP have a reconnect option (on the tab's context menu perhaps?) that would be great! A keyboard shortcut would be nice too...

In addition to a Reconnect on the context menu for the tab, could you make double-clicking the tab reconnect? At least for LogMeIn, not sure if it would be as useful for RDP--it may be. Just a thought.

Hi,
I can do it on a double click, but I will have to ask a confirmation.

As long as the default answer is "yes" so I can just hit Enter to reconnect after the double-click, I'm OK with that :-) Thanks!
