I like using RDP windowed (it gives me easy access to my local pc). I set it on 1900x1100 and on a 1920x1200 monitor I can still see the local machine's taskbar. Both machines are Win 10 Pro.
However, My local machine has more than one monitor (I have two FullHD+ monitors and I can add a third FullHD) and when I need to do a lot of RDP work it would be handy to use them both in same the remote session using a single connection (like how Outlook uses a single connection and shows multiple windows, I know, different applications, but it maybe clarifies some misconceptions about my intention here).
I know I can:
- Work fullscreen and the "Use all my monitors" option. But then I can't see what's happening on my local machine.
- Set the windowed mode as one double-wide window (3800x1100), aim the center on the divide between monitors and put one application on the left and one on the right, but then the whole (remote) taskbar is on one monitor and it quickly gets confusing.
So question is: Can I connect to RDP that it gives me 2 windows that get treated by the remote PC as 2 monitors? Or 1 double-wide window that gets treated as 2 monitors?
