Connecting with creating a new session on the server

RokeT

Good afternoon, I need to connect to a remote server in such a way that when I connect, a new session is created on the windows server. How can this be implemented? As an example, the RDP connection method, only implement the Team Viewer connection method

Hello @RokeT,

In order to always be able to connect to your server, you need to use the server ID.

On a server OS, there is always a server ID, additionally each user profile will have a unique user ID.

If you connect to the user ID rather than the server ID then this message appears if there is no active RDP session into the specific user (or it is minimised).

The user ID is only online when there is an active RDP session as otherwise the server would not generate a desktop and hence there is no screen for TeamViewer to grab.

In most scenarios it is the server ID which is where users want to connect into. The server ID is always online and accessible.

It can be found during the connection by the following:

• Full version: Main menu (☰) → About TeamViewer
• Host: Right click icon in system tray → About TeamViewer

Let me know if this is what you were looking for! 🌻

All the best,

JeanK
