I'm trying to write a simple batch file to take a remote desktop connection. But I'm not getting how to pass a program name, that I want to run on the remote system immediately after rdp session is created.

Note: Using RDP client we can specify this thing under "Programs" tab.

Solution 1

Using the RDP client, set proper settings and then in General tab you can save the settings as a .rdp file.

Then again this file can be used as a parameter when executing RDP from the command line. See Use command line parameters with Remote Desktop Connection[^]

Thanks for reply.

This would not be portable solution, right?. I mean, if i want to use the batch file on some other system, then I will have to do the same thing from RDP client on that system also. But I don't want to do that. I just want to send the batch file to other system and execute it there.

As far as I can see this is a portable solution as long as you also send the rdp file. The rdp file is actually a simple text file. You can use notepad to open it and see the content.
