Sending global commands to all undocked RDP's without having to click in them to focus window

Ctrl + k

Published 3 years ago

I am trying to send a command to each RDP opened on my computer, for example Ctrl + Shift +1, but at the moment I need to click into each window to send the command one at a time. Is there a feature I'm missing which can send ctrl + shift + 1 to all remote desktop windows opened?

Thank you for your time

Hello,
Unfortunately the RDP protocol does not provide a way to send keystrokes. That the reason why you need to have the focus because RDM needs to emulate the send key. This is something I would gladly the day we find a workaround. We don't have this limitation with SSH and this feature is called broadcast input:
