This will automatically open the RDC\RDP client app to initiate connection to your VM with the file's settings applied. The next time that you connect to the lab VM, you should browse to the location of the RDC\RDP file that you saved in the previous step and click on it to open the file. After you’ve made changes, you can test the settings by clicking the Connect button.ĥ. Once you have finalized the settings, you can save the changes to the RDC\RDP file by clicking the Save button.

To change the connection settings in the RDP\RDC file, the user will need to open the file using the RDP\RDC client app and then save changes to the file before they use it to connect to their lab VM. In this section, we’ll show the steps that users can follow to save changes to the RDP\RDC file that is used to connect to their lab VM.
Again, with the example of Linux Ubuntu with GNOME, we recommend reducing this setting to Modem (56 kbps).Īs we mentioned above, when a user notices slow performance with their VM connection, we recommend that they experiment with different values for the Display and Experience settings to potentially improve performance. The Experience settings include a Performance option that allows you to choose your connection speed to optimize performance. Continuing with our example of Linux Ubuntu and GNOME, we recommend changing this setting to High Color (15 bit): Reducing the color depth may help to improve VM connection performance. The Display settings include a Colors option that allows you to choose the color depth of the remote session. If you have users reporting slow connection experiences, we recommend that they experiment with changing the RDC\RDP client app’s Display and Experience settings. For example, there are known performance issues when you use the RDC\RDP client app to connect to a Linux Ubuntu VM that has the GNOME graphical desktop installed.
