RDS 2012R2 not reconnecting to disconnected session from RDWeb

rdsrdwebwindows-server-2012-r2

When a user connects via RDWeb and closes all the applications, the session is disconnected. If that same user, then connects via RDP to the full desktop, a new session is created instead of reconnecting the disconnected session from RDWeb.

Aside from bringing a continuity issue, it also breaks mapped drives.

Any idea what might cause this?

Best Answer

This is by design, RDWeb and full RDP session are using different services.
