Switching to previous RDP session

When you reconnect the remote desktop session with RDP, you want to reconnect to the same session you left. However, you might not get the same session you useed in the last time, Since other person used it with same user id, or the system just initial a new session for you.

The obvious and idea solution is to implement active directory to enhance identity management on the machine, so that each user has his/her own unique session, distinguished by one's user id, to avoid session taking over.

Having said that, in case you logon to the remote desktop session with RDP, and the session is not what you left in the last time. luckly, you still can do one more attempt to switch from current session to the previous left-over session:

1. Select Terminal Service Manger in the Administrative Tasks
2. You will see all the available session: the session with the green colored user icon is the one you currently login;other sessions are either used by other users or the one you used in the last time. the one you used should be in the "Disconnected" state.
   
3. Select one session which is in Disconnected state, with supplying password, you will swtich to the new session.
