As always, those strange quirks of Microsoft to not allow certain things with your operating system most useful see.
In my case, I was using my HTPC for more than just movies, so I wanted two things, firstly allow multiple concurrent users could connect to the same machine and on the other, if possible, to use the same user in several sessions (this is already mine for nonsense 
).
Total, that the latter and would be awesome, but is that by default, any Windows, the first thing is impossible, to connect with Remote Desktop to a machine that automatically disconnects the console was in, in my case the default session HTPC, which also is blocked to disconnect you, which does not solve anything.
The solution is to crack the library of the Remote Desktop server, so they did in XP and so is still done in Windows 7, unbeatable seafront but true.
Found around the patch to the latest versions of Windows7, but the downside is that he was prepared for English, so that by attempting to leave the group "Administrators" or stop the service "Remote desktop" Error returned. I changed a bit the script to work with the Spanish versions. You can download it here .
The operation is very simple, it decompresses the file and run the file with administrative privileges install.cmd. To logarlo you know, right click on it and "Run as administrator".
If all goes well change the dll for the patched and restart the Remote Desktop service with the default options, ie, allowing multiple simultaneous users. If we allow multiple sessions of the same user, it must be done otherwise.
Start-> All Programs-> Accessories-> Command Prompt
Executed administrator also how the same system, with the right button. Once there we move to the folder where you unzip the patch and run:
- install. cmd multi
With this you enable the same user multisession.
Now try to connect from another computer with another user (or the same if we have activated the multisession) have two active sessions.
I can I can I use my HTPC to something more useful

[...] In the Shadow Brain blog have posted a trick to enable multi-user remote desktop. [...]
SIMPLY SPECTACULAR!. capo saved my life.
I can open the same session twice and it works well but ...
I can control the session open, just open a new one for the user mime. does this solution?
thanks and congratulations for your work!
Hello dejota,
Do not quite understand what you mean by "control the open session."
Can you tell exactly what you want to do?
Hi, what I want is to control one computer from another, same user and same session without closing the premises. Words that look the same on both screens and if I drive the mouse from the remote to see how it moves on the premises.
I hope you now understand me. A greeting and thanks for answering.
Hello dejota,
Sorry to say that, as far as I know, you can not do what you want, when you open a session on a computer is disconnected at the other the same meeting.
For what you do have to use third party tools like vnc ( http://www.uvnc.com/ ).
Capo ... I wonder how I can do to watch movies from the remote desktop because I run the video but the player only shows me a black screen ... (you assemble a com old lady my baby and I want to see the movies you love without me break ... that they run on the pc that laburo) can? CAPO response is appreciated!!
Thanks old
great very useful patch. Forget putting on the Multi hope it works running it again with this parameter.
thank you again.
Compa excellent article, I ask because I can not try now, it's multi-user, multi-session, would serve for two people to work simultaneously on the same document?.
Forgive the idiotes.
Thanks
Hi Camilo,
No two people can edit the same document, it's like if you try to open it yourself twice. For that you need tools dedicated to it exclusively.
Hey!, I'm running Win7 64bit Ultimate and runs. Run the Crack of the Library but NOT allow me to do the remote connection, when I access from the Internet to my PC fixed I get the error message: "To log on to this remote computer, you must have the Allow logon through Terminal Services "
I speculate that maybe the problem is the computer from which I try to make the remote connection is a WinXP.SP3
Many thanks for your help if you can give me!!
Hi Luis,
It sounds like a permissions problem in the configuration of users, not a problem of XP, I use it from a xp
.
Check user permissions, look to see if an "administrator" can connect, etc ...

The worst of it is that before if accesaba remote desktop and now I can not do it .. : '(
Hopefully you can help me please! =)
@ Atos,
If you can not start the Remote Desktop you can always leave it as you did. In:
C: \ Windows \ System32 \
You will have two files named "termsrv" and different lengths. One is the dll file that is copied to the process and the other is the original renamed. extensions and lets you change the original as dll, everything should work as before.
MY brother fabulous contribution, I thought it would not work ......

Dear, can someone upload the library to do this same thing with Windows XP?? Thank you very much
Rodrigo: in windows xp can do the same, but you can not remote desktop igresar by the same user. You should create different users. You can check here:

Very good, thank you very much.
Would it be possible in windows 7 remote desktop access via web?.
Osus Hello, thank you very much, you could tell me where I can ask you some questions regarding the topic?
Eg
1. Users can load each office applications smoothly? word, excel, power point, outlook, ie, etc?
Two. If you managed to do the same with windows 7-64 bit?
thank you, greetings
All right, the only thing I miss the miss was script start service again Media Extender, uses the xbox 360. The solution is to reboot the PC and start it manually and put it on automatic.
Slds.
server and 2003 as the mulitesion habilito?
Thank you very much! It works perfect!
The server is another story. By default lets two simultaneous connections for management tasks, but if you want more, you have to enable terminal services sever their licenses correspondoentes (although I suppose there will be something out there for those licenses).
Thank you. You saved my life
very good contribution
Does not work on Windows 7 Enterprise (7600 - Spanish). The patch runs successfully but does not solve the problem of multi-user remote desktop.

Thousand and thousand thanks, God bless you.
For what it is useful for someone.
Download the. Zip I made the execution of the instructions as indicated install.cmd, but received an error that did not have the correct version. Out of curiosity change the lines:
SET WINVER = Windows 7 Build 7600
SET PRODUCTNAME = "Windows 7 Ultimate"
SET CURRENTBUILD = "7600"
by these:
SET WINVER = Windows 7 Home Premium
SET PRODUCTNAME = "Windows 7"
SET CURRENTBUILD = "7601"
and run everything without errors.
The changes I made because the pc had installed Windows 7 Home Premium with SP1.
I hope I can help others.
I achieved that I worked (active remote use) but the multi is not working. Keep saying that another user is connected to the computer and blah blah blah ... It may be that the patch has not patched correctly (multi install.cmd)
They know if the VNC is remote audio ..?
Great Friend! thank you very much for this contribution! It is a great solution to take advantage of a good machine and two machines more oldies!
The bigger! I also fixed the problem I had: I could not log in again after closing the previous one.
Dear fabulous solucionaste input a problem that I was breaking my head.
Hello, Thank you so much for the help. I have a problem with me multisession enables a new user, but when I want to log in with the same user enters the session already active on the desktop and does not generate a new session. How I can fix it?
Hello Fernando,
What Next? Have executed command to activate it?
It is assumed that the "multi" in my example does what you ask, if you only install execute in multisession enables different users but not the same.
Suffused, I ran windows 7 64 bits.
Thank you very much for the contribution.
I have the version of Windows in English. Work this modification?
Where I can find the modification in English. Thanks
Good.
With Windows 7 Home Premium and Sp1 remote desktop connect him but only to the user pamtalla. Once you choose the user with the password I skip the message that the remote desktop session ended.
The pc is totally clean because it is new, just installed updates. I tried the multi comnado and neither is without service pack and with the one.
Let's see if someone comes up with something.
Thank you.
I have windows 7 Multimate, in Spanish, it does not work I say I'm not an administrator, and I checked but what if I have permissions on the account as an administrator, not to happen but I funcoina. Do not know if it's the language or what is happening but it does not work. I wish and I can help.
Thanks and I did two windonw 7 runs perfectly ..
I installed without problems and multiuser works perfectly,
but the problem comes Cundo you put new users on that computer.
When you exceed the number of 4 or 5 user profiles from there onwards all users use temporary permits.
I would like to know if this script limits the number of users on the computer and q the problem occurs after you run it. Y has occurred repeatedly.
Thanks in advance.
