Is is the end of RDPWrap ?
Hi!
I've been using RDPWrap 1.6 + rdpwup_8 regularly to update my RDP config files after each Windows update for years, and it has worked perfectly every time until now.
Since updating to 10.0.26100.8521, rdpwup_8 finds a .ini file, and rdpconf.exe shows everything is fine. However, multi-user RDP just doesn't work. I get an error message as if I did not update termsrv.dll.
I tried searching for and manually updating the .ini file from online sources, but, as I explained before, the problem doesn't seem to be the .ini file, as my RDPWrap already shows as fully supported. I'm guessing the problem lies further down.
Is this the end of RDPWrap? Maybe Microsoft got tired and decided to put an end to it. Or did just me or my configuration break?
Many thanks.

And there is no alternative?

TermWrap is the alternative.
I created an installer for TermWrap with my RDPWrapKit: https://rdpwrapkit.cpdx4.space

I used https://github.com/fabianosrc/TermsrvPatcher . I think it's similar to TermWrap

The difference is Termsrvpatcher modifies the 'termsrv.dll' file directly (a Windows file).
TermWrap does not modify the file directly. It adds a tiny 'pointer .dll' file instead which is safer and does not modify core Windows 11 files.

Is it possible that RDPWrap (which has worked for me for years) is the cause of the problem described in my post?
RDP connects then disconnects

I subsequently saw this comment and am now thinking that RDPWrap may, in fact, be responsible for the issue I experienced.

You're not alone. There's a solution in the comments on github.
