Release 2.43 introduces a number of Remote Desktop improvements:
-
Sign-out: You can now remotely sign out of a Remote Desktop by choosing Session > Sign out. In addition to disconnecting the session, the command terminates your Windows session on the remote VM. (#1463)
-
Reconnect: When a Remote Desktop session times out and displays the lock screen, you can now use Session > Reconnect to let IAP Desktop reconnect the session and sign you in automatically again. (#1463)
-
Disable automatic logons: IAP Desktop now offers an additional connection setting, Automatic logons. When you set this to Disabled, IAP Desktop won't try to sign you in automatically, and won't offer you to save credentials. The setting is intended for VMs that use the Always prompt for password upon connection group policy and lets you avoid duplicate credential prompts when connecting to such VMs. (#1501)
-
Display resolution: Instead of letting IAP Desktop resize the Remote Desktop session to fit your current window size, you can now use the Display resolution setting to let IAP Desktop use a fixed resolution for the Remote Desktop session.
The release also includes these new features:
-
ARM64 support: IAP Desktop now natively supports ARM64, and there is a separate installer package for ARM64 machines.
-
Intune deployment: The documentation now contain instructions for deploying IAP Desktop using Intune and customizing IAP Desktop using Intune.
In addition, the release includes several stability improvements and fixes, including:
- Connection settings: The connection settings window now properly indicates when a Windows password is being inherited.
