Win7 host - session scaling

Hello,

I have added this setting and it will available in RDM 2026.1 coming in few months.

Regards

Sorry - which feature ?

It just crossed my mind, in the Advanced tab, have you tried switching "RDP Version" to FreeRDP? It's been a while since I last tested DPI awareness in RDM but there's a chance it would behave differently than with the RDP ActiveX from Microsoft when connecting to Windows 7

I have tried those various settings (which I wasn't aware of) to no avail.

Now the "interresting" thing is that I have updated RDCM to the lattest version (3.1) and I can't seem to have scaling working anymore (with unchanged settings) !! The working version was (very old) v 2.7 and it is not anymore available for download :/

Yes, I know, Win7...

Still, I have a situation where I need to connect to a legacy Win7 host from a Win11 client using high DPI screen and I need session scaling to make things readable.

Before you start telling me it is not possible please bear in mind that it is actually working with sysinternals RDCM - so it IS possible. But for the life of me can't seem to figure out the proper setting in RDCMan.

Any idea / suggestion most welcome.
