How do I execute the equivalent of 'Windows + D' to show the desktop in a remote session (MSTSC)?

I am aware of a few other important ones like 'alt + home' which opens the start menu, but I'd like to find one that sends all windows within a remote session to the taskbar to show only the desktop.

In the remote desktop client you can configure how the keyboard combinations get passed here:

  • Thanks. I did some more research and I think this is the only option. I was hoping there was a 'show desktop' shortcut without having to do this, but this is fine.

You can configure the remote desktop connection to apply Windows key combinations on the remote computer.

If you are RDCing to a computer that is set up strictly for RDC, then i would just add the Desktop link to the task bar.
