KB-9648: Remote Desktop Taskbar is Unavailable When Connection is Launched from Elevated Desktop Machine

Authentication Service ,  

4 January,18 at 08:47 PM

Problem:
  
On an Elevated Desktop on Machine1, when a Remote Desktop Connection is made to Machine2, the taskbar on Machine2 is inaccessible.  It can be seen under the taskbar on Machine1, but this placement makes it inaccessible.

Workaround: 
  
If the remote desktop session is changed to a "windowed" instead of "full screen" mode, the task bar on Machine2 will appear above the taskbar of Machine1

Alternately, on Machine2, if the task bar is moved to another position on the screen (i.e. to the right hand side), then the task bar on the Remote Desktop Connection will also be on the right hand side, making the taskbar available in full screen mode.

Resolution:
  
This issue will be addressed in a future release of Centrify.
