Hi, I've had great success with this variant from #906
https://github.com/SobieskiCodes/RDPWrap

The key for me was to:

  • Grant Everyone as Owner and Everyone : Full Control to C:\Program Files\RDP Wrapper
  • Extract all / copy & replace all bits into that directory
  • Perform all operations from that directory (that is: the 2 batch files to be run)
  • Run all .bat files as admin (elevated) FROM THAT DIRECTORY. Order = [1] install.bat [2] autoupdate.bat ... then mstsc.exe should be able to RDP into yourself at 127.0.0.2 (which is what RDPCheck.exe does).

[LPTs] ::

  • If you dont see a lot of output in the cmd.exe opened from these .bat files, then it did NOT launch elevated. I'd CD to that directory with an elevated cmd.exe (Ctrl + Shift + Enter to run cmd.exe elevated) so you can obtain and see all output since they dont have PAUSE embedded
  • Notice that initially before all of these operations if rdpwrap.dll is locked and cannot be replaced (when replacing at least 2 pre-existing files rdpwrap.dll & rdpwrap.ini), then in an elevated cmd.exe before running the batch files, perform a: net stop UmRdpService & net stop TermService

  • I didn't have to reboot at all, even with past RDPWrap running and RDP svchost.exe operating as normal, just the key was to do a net stop UmRdpService & net stop TermService before anything else

If you have further questions let me know. This worked on Win10 1903 Pro and tested on Home just to see, because yolo :-)

I have my windows updated to date and this method has stopped working, any ideas?

I think this is not the main problem. I have never played with access to directories on windows 10.
I have administrator rights.

I installed like this:

  • create folder C:\RDPWrap-v1.6.2
  • add the directory RDPWrap-v1.6.2 to exceptions in the antivirus settings or windows defender
  • unpacked the RDPWrap-v1.6.2 archive in C:\RDPWrap-v1.6.2
  • run as administrator install.bat
  • create a directory C:\Program Files\RDP Wrapper\
  • stop the service TermService
    TermService
  • copy the latest (fresh) files rdpwrap.zip from the archive for my version of the operating system in the directory C:\Program Files\RDP Wrapper\
  • start the service TermService
  • reboot OS
  • check status of the C:\RDPWrap-v1.6.2\RDPConf.exe
    config
  • if everything as in the screenshot means it works
  • if everything is ok - try to sign in as another user
    RDPWrap-v1.6.2.zip
    rdpwrap.zip

Try this rdpwrap

This worked, thank you!

This worked. Thanks!
Also, needed to restart "Remote Desktop Services" from services.
