I installed fresh Win8.1 on a VM, enabled RDP access.
Problem that I'm facing is that when I close RDP client my session and all my windows and applications got closed immediately. I need session to stay on waiting for me with all my apps running.
I researched on this topic. found an article https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754272.aspx, tried what was suggested, but it didn't help.
I tried to connect from Win8.1 standard RDP client and from microsoft RDP client for iOS. Same behaviour. User account I use to log in is microsoft account xxx@live.com
P.S. Just in case it matters: VM is virtualbox, virtual box extensions pack is installed on guest 8.1 And I never use 'logoff', i always close RDP client with X. I do this on several other remote machines and it works flawlessly..
Answer
Finally! This problem is solved now. It looks like Windows 8.1 overriding all the options you set in registry or group policies when it thinks there is not enough RAM. I had 1Gb RAM on this VM, i increased that to 1.5GB and all the options i set started working! The thing is that Windows turns off Fast User Switching in case of 1GB Ram and this influences remote sessions (even there is only 1) in such a weird way.
Thanks everyone. Anton Viktorov
