We have been fighting for months with a weird behaviour where Windows Server 2022 all of sudden was becoming no more accessible via RDP after a while. That was happening only on some VMs, not all of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The symptom was simple: you were trying to connect to a Windows Server 2022 server hosted in a VM, the RDP connection screen was showing to you the classic certificate warning and when you decide to go on server was logging you in for a very short time then the connection crashed. We were able to login via Hyper-V console but RDP was no-go. Nothing was working while the fact you were correctly logging in was proved by the fact that another session started from Hyper-V console was being forced out when you were attempting to login by the same username. However, logging in never completed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were quite upset since that seemed to affect and increasingly number of VMs until we discovered a shocking thing: the issue was caused by the removal of Users<\/em> group access to C:\\ folder. \ud83d\ude1f\ud83d\ude1f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's a change we usually perform on Web Servers and actually Web Servers were the most affected kind of servers. Not sure which is the connection between Users<\/em> group access to C:\\ folder but if we re-enable the access for that group, RDP starts working again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just crazy! One the strangest thing that happened to us. We used to remove Users access to C:\\ for ages and that showed no issues on any Windows Server version since 2003 or so. Hope this might help anyone else!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
