This locations below are for the current account. Open File Explorer (Win+E), copy and paste the folder location below for what you want to restore into the address bar of File Explorer, and press Enter. I set up this server by installing roles and features using the 'Roll-based or feature-based installation' option. If the Remote Desktop app is currently open, close it. I have found I can shadow sessions via the command line using mstsc.exe but I would really like to have a GUI. But for some reason the Collections tab isn't there. If it doesn’t then restart the Remote Desktop Connection Manager and try again. This should solve the issue of black boxes appearing on the screen. Once selected, Click Ok then select Ok again. Apparently you can 'shadow' another user's RDP session from the server manager by going to Remote Desktop Services > Collections and going to the Connections section. Select the appropriate connection speed from the drop down menu in Connection Speed. I understand from tutorials like this one that Remote Desktop ought to be one of the options in my Preferences menu, but it isn't.
I remember I used to be able to do this from the Task Manager's 'Users' tab but I couldn't find that option in 2012, so I looked online. I need to enable remote connections to a machine that's running Linux Mint 13 Maya.
Everything was going fine until I wanted to try and view someone else's connection. All the employees connect to this server using Remote Desktop Connection. We just made the switch to new a server and changed from Windows 2008 R2 to 2012 R2 Datacenter.
