How to get the taskbar to show for some time when clicking on the connection bar in a RDP session?

Right now to show the taskbar I have to minimize the RDP session, which is kind of annoying.

The taskbar do show as I want it to, if I have two displays and click somewhere on the desktop on display 1 when having a full screen RDP running on display 2. Sadly this only work if the desktop is visible on display 1.

    Hello Emil

    Do you mean the taskbar on the remote desktop or the taskbar on local desktop? Would the windows logo key work?

    It's Windows key + t to show the taskbar.  The Windows key alone shows the Start menu.

    Hello!

    Try WIN key ( Windows Key ) after modifying in Remote Desktop Connection ( mstsc.exe ) "Local Resources" tab, "Apply Windows key combination" -> "On this computer".
