Capture

To get around this try the following:

mstsc /v:x.x.x.x /admin

Replace the x.x.x.x with the address of the terminal server.

Data Execution Prevention workaround

If you ever get those applications that wont allow you to run more than one instance, try the following:

– Right click on “Computer” or “My Computer”
– Select “Advanced” or “Advanced System settings”
– Under Performance heading; select “Settings”
– Select “Data Execution Prevention”
– Select “Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select.
– Select “Add” and add the required programs to the list.
– Hit Ok

Hope that helps!! 🙂
