Windows 7 SP1: automatic logon does not work (anymore)

Windows 7 SP1: automatic logon does not work (anymore)

avatar

Hi,

Is there any specific setting within Windows 7 we should take into account while using RDM?
Before automatic logons (doubleclclick on RDP within RDM) was working fine but now it asks for user/password again.

Please advise.
J.

Thanks, yes it is checked indeed.

Have you tried embedded and external mode?

It was always working in embedded mode, why should I change that?

avatar

In external mode RDM invokes mstsc.exe. I don't know what could be the problem. Could you tried it directly in mstsc?

Sorry for late update but result is the same (external mode, embedded mode) and gets really annoying. For each Windows 7 (issue is only on Windows 7, not on Windows server) the issue occurs.

Does it happen with mstsc?

David Hervieux

You mean, running mstsc (not using Remote Desktop Manager), yes it does.

avatar

Could you try to create a new entry and retry it?

Tried that, doesn't work.

When you mentioned: "does it happen with mstsc" and I said yes, I meant it doesn't work with mstsc either (no autologon).

avatar

Ok could you try to make it work (I mean the auto logon) with mstsc or perhaps give a try to RDCMan. We use the same ActiveX

I want to make sure that it's not a configuration on the Windows 7 machine.
