Mac Microsoft Remote Desktop Share Folder
When moving files between Windows machines via Remote Desktop, you typically go to Local Resources > More
and check the box in front of Drives to map your drive on the remote machine. Then you can use xcopy
and tsclient
to move the files.
The good thing about old Microsoft Remote Desktop version 8 is when I open a feed it asks me which folder do I want to connect in Mac which is the best thing ever life-saving! This feature is necessary to have on version 10 otherwise it's a big problem. Nov 21, 2016 Hi! Me and my colleagues at work used Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac to access RDS resources on Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008.

This isn’t quite the same on the Microsoft Remote Desktop Mac app. I believe this is because Mac OS X can’t accept SMB connections by default, so you have to map a special folder on your machine to accept transfers.

The folder you map will be available at tsclient
. You can either use xcopy from the command line or find it under the Network drives area in the file browser.
