How to force keyboard layout for remote desktop

How to force keyboard layout for remote desktop

Hi,

we are using german keyboards on our clients, but we have servers all over the world.
That means the default keyboard layout on the server tends to be non-german.
Currently I always have to manually (shitft-alt) switch the layou after login.
Is there any way that I can configure RDM to automatically tell the server to use my local layout?

regards
Alex

Hi,
have you tried in the RDP Advanced configuration to change the default keyboard layout? This was added in the version 8.1

Hi,

this works ok when connecting to a session that is currently not running and I'm logged in "freshly".
However when the session is already up and running, this doesn't work.

Hi,
I will verify if I can do something but I think that it's only initialized when the session is created
