Open (External) RDP or Web entry does not Close when ending external session.

Published a year ago

When opened a web entry or RDP session External, then when closing the RDP session or closing the browser Tab or browser this Entry will not be closed automatically in RDM (and can't be used again). Action button Close remains highlighted and pressing Close will not execute this either. Executing in Embedded RDM there everything goes as desired, entry session is closed again.

The sessions in question are detected by RDM when closing RDM and will indicate/message that there are still sessions open, but after rebooting/restart RDM these sessions are closed again and you do not get the default option to resume that last opened sessions.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this,

When launching a session in External RDM, it is simply using the command line to launch the entry. Once started, in most cases, RDM will not have control over it anymore, which is why using the "Close" button only changes the status of the session inside RDM.

Let me know if you have further questions regarding this

Best regards,

Samuel Dery
