rdm change def language on destination platform

avatar

my xp sp3 eng has to languages with US Eng as default

  • set eng on lang.bar

  • start rdm

  • open rdp to windows server (2 languages, ENG US set as default), autologon enabled, password saved

  • type anything and you'll see english letters

  • close rdp session (logout from target windows server)

  • switch to another app (4ex: email client) and change language from enus to another one

  • switch back to RDM (alt-tab)

  • open the same rdp session as we did before (double click)

  • typing, on the remote side - the default languge now is not EN US and you are typing a secondary language letters

  • log off remote windows session or close it

  • type something in the dropdown search box (top pane) - secondary language is used there!

so - rdm does not remember it's own language selected and switch to other language changed in another app

this trick makes RDP believe that this secondary language is default for this user system and use it as system on ther remote side

very annoing bug

to fix it in moment you need to change language while cursor is on the session tree or in search box and reconnect

Hi,

I will have to do some test because I'm not aware of anything on purpose for that.
