RDP session freezes

Question

Hello,

When RDP’ing into a Windows Server 2019 Datacenter VM, my session frequently freezes multiple times a day across all VMs. I typically need to reconnect through a new RDP session to continue working. I'm unsure what might be causing this issue.

Hi BA,

Thank You for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum.

Try to login to remote host/server, open registry editor and navigate to the path; HKEY_Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client.

Right Click on Terminal Server Client and create a new DWORD value named "UseURCP" with value of 0.

Or else,

you can try from a command prompt if you have admin privileges on the box:

REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client" /v UseURCP /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

You can try with any one of the above methods to resolve your issue.
