<b>RDP Wrapper Library by Stas'M</b><br>
<br>
The goal of this project is to enable Remote Desktop Host support and concurrent RDP sessions on reduced functionality systems for home usage.<br>
<br>
RDP Wrapper works as a layer between Service Control Manager and Terminal Services, so the original termsrv.dll file remains untouched. Also this method is very strong against Windows Update.<br>

<br>
Attention:<br>
It's recommended to have original termsrv.dll file with the RDP Wrapper installation. If you have modified it before with other patchers, it may become unstable and crash in any moment.<br>
<br>
Information:<br>
• Source code is available, so you can build it on your own<br>
• RDP Wrapper does not patch termsrv.dll, it loads termsrv with different parameters<br>
• RDPWInst and RDPChecker can be redistributed without development folder and batch files<br>
• RDPWInst can be used for unattended installation / deployment<br>
• Windows 2000, XP and Server 2003 will not be supported<br>
<br>
Porting to other platforms:<br>
• <b>ARM</b> for Windows RT (see links below)<br>
• <b>IA-64</b> for Itanium-based Windows Server? <i>Well, I have no idea</i> :)<br>
<br>
Building the binaries:<br>
• <b>x86 Delphi version</b> can be built with <i>Embarcadero RAD Studio 2010</i><br>
• <b>x86/x64 C++ version</b> can be built with <i>Microsoft Visual Studio 2013</i><br>

<b>Known issues:</b><br>
• Beginning with Windows 8 (non-server editions) you can't connect to existing sessions (they will be logged out by system) - <a href="https://github.com/binarymaster/rdpwrap/issues/37" target="_blank">more info</a><br>
• Beginning with Windows 10 you can accidentally lock yourself from PC - <a href="https://github.com/binarymaster/rdpwrap/issues/50" target="_blank">more info</a><br>
• RDP works, but termsrv.dll crashes on logon attempt - Windows Vista Starter RTM x86 (termsrv.dll 6.0.6000.16386)<br>
• If Terminal Services hangs at startup, try to add <b>rdpwrap.dll</b> to antivirus exclusions. Also try to isolate RDP Wrapper from other shared services by the command:<br>
<tt>sc config TermService type= own</tt><br>
• RDP Wrapper Installer can be removed by AVG Free Antivirus after reboot - add it to exclusions.<br>
