I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 instance running in VirtualBox. Within this VM I have two users, Admin
and vagrant
where vagrant
is non-administrative.
When interacting into the VM via VirtualBox, I am having no issue connecting into either Administrator
or vagrant
. But when I use Microsoft Remote Desktop, I can only login to the Administrator
. As I attempt to login as vagrant
, I keep getting the following
The requested session access is denied
According to this potential solution, I have to "Remove the /admin parameter in the remote desktop connection". I have no clue on how to go about that.
Any feedback on this is much appreciated, Thanks!

Try opening the remote desktop application "fresh". Make sure you are not using a saved shortcut to login with the admin account.
Make sure vagrant is a member of the windows "remote desktop users" user group. Under user accounts on the target VM.
