    Hi,

    Please make sure domain, username and password are correct. Try to connect manually using the same credentials.
    What OS are you running it on / connecting to?

    If I understand it correctly, then using windows remote desktop client you can connect to the machine specified in "hostname" by using "username" and "password".
    But the RdpKeeper service gives you "Access denied".

    Please try to run RdpKeeper.Console with the same config file and post the output, it should look like this:

    I created 1st release v1.0 from binaries on my computer, which is confirmed to work. Please try to download zip and run RdpKeeper.Console again.

    There are no absolute paths, I downloaded and extracted RdpKeeper.Console-1.0.zip on different computer with w10 64bit and it is working. I have no 32bit OS, so I cannot test.
    I use that succesfully on windows server at work to keep RDP session to localhost opened forever.
    No need to donate, I do my best to make it working.
    Prefered way is to run the service locally on automation server which will keep one or more RDP connections to localhost opened forever. But it should work properly also over network.

    Based on the error message, looks like the problem is with 32/64 bits. Is your windows 64bit? Can you try to run it on 64bit os?

    RdpKeeper.Console.exe is just to test, if it works fine please try to install RdpKeeper.Service using same username/password/host

    Over the netwok means that instead of using Hostname="localhost" specify compter name or IP address

    i can run it using psexec to run from another user remotely?

    No need for psexec, the RdpKeeper.Console/RdpKeeper.Service can run under any account. Important is to have proper credentials in .config file

    Hi, sorry for the delay, it's holiday season :)

    System.Configuration.ConfigurationErrorsException means you have error in *.config file. I don't understand russian, but it is telling you the line number where you have a typo.

    For the error "Unable to load dll..." please try to copy all files from x64 subdirectory one leve up, next to the rdpkeeper executable and also delete all files from x86 subdirectory and copy all files from x64 to x86.
    This will cause to have freerdp x64 files in 3 places.
