Tip: How to use RDP8 with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008R2

Hi Folks,

already some time ago Microsoft released some updates for Windows 7 and Windows 2008R2 to make RDP8 available. This is a great advantage but a bunch of Administrators did not note it. So give it a try: RemoteFX Update for Win7/2008R2

It will provide you a lot of more features and it’s work to test it incl. with the IGEL LX/OS RDP Client.

At this point i would also like to announce a new small upcoming tool from cloud-client.info that will be released soon. This tool will provide you a lot of configuration options for the RDP Protocol and some related configurations incl. a simple way to import and export a bunch of RDP settings from one system to an other system or from policy to local configurations incl. the easy handling of several configurations for tests/productions/lowest network use/best user experience and much more. It is mostly designed for Windows Server 2012 incl. R2 and Windows 8 but will also work with some limitations for Windows 7 and 2008R2 incl. the RDP8 update if installed.

Cheers

Michael
