Start -> Run -> mstsc ERROR "unable to open connection file Default.rdp"


windows server 2008 datacenter 64bit.

i created custom remote desktop file earlier week , ever since when launch remote desktop using run command error saying

unable open connection file - c:\users\administrator\documents\default.rdp

the connection file exists in path specified, isn't hidden or read only, i'm logged in administrator , have full control permissions file , system. if browse default.rdp , double click same error message.

to create custom remote desktop file did follows;

start -> run -> mstsc -> clicked options button ->changed settings under tabs way want them -> clicked save -> pointed desktop

this more of nuisance else i'd fix it. have idea why i'm getting thise error?
teenage angst has paid of well, i'm bored , old.

hello,

 

can remotely connect computer, without saved rdp file, using remote desktop connection?

 

would please try following steps see if problem remains?

 

1. create user, , log on computer newly created user account. check whether problem caused user profile corruptions.

 

2. click start, click run , type mstsc in dialog box , click ok.

 

3. click options expand rdc interface. type computer name want connect , click button "save as…" save rdp file different location (d:\, example). not make other changes rdp settings @ time.

 

4. click start , click computer. navigate location saved rdp file (d:\, example). double click rdp file see if problem remains.

 

if rdp can work way, well, can try typing following command in run dialog box see if can work either:

 

mstsc.exe d:\test.rdp              (i assuming rdp file saved in location)

 

besides, have ever signed rdp file (e.g. using rdpsign)?

 

best regards,

chang yin
