Automatic activation of Remote Desktop windows

Post by drjulianof »

XMBC Version:
Windows Version: 10
Mouse Information (brand/model): HP
Computer Information:
Did the problem occur after an upgrade of XMBC?:
Did the problem occur after a Windows update/upgrade?:
How long have you used XMBC?:
What language and keyboard layout do you use in Windows?:

Clear description of the problem: I have a remote desktop application in a dual monitor setup. I would like to activate the RDP application automatically with the XMBC but it apparently only activates local windows when applying this setting. Any solution to having the focus automaticall change to the RDP app in full screen in the second monitor?

The only solution is to install XMBC on the remote computer I'm afraid.
XMBC cant activate windows remotely - remote desktop does not expose any way to do that!
