You can connect to a user session in Terminal Services Manager by using the Connect action.

To connect to a user session

    • On the Users tab, right-click the user session, and then click Connect.

    • On the Sessions tab, right-click the user session, and then click Connect.

  3. Click OK to connect to the user session.

Additional considerations

  • You can always connect to your own sessions if you are logged on with the same user account.

  • To connect to the session of another user, you must have Full Control access permission or Connect special access permission.

  • You can connect to a user session only if the user session is in either an active or disconnected state.

  • You can only connect to a user session from within an existing remote session on the same terminal server.
