I would recommend being extra cautious when opening an RDG file from an unknown, or unfamiliar source, as to not fall foul of the security issue. So that being said, I plan on continuing to use it for now. Our solution integrates more than 160 technologies such as RDP, VPN, Putty, VNC.

That being said I always found myself coming back to Remote Desktop Connection Manager due to it's ease of use, and the fact it's not reliant on the App Store, which is especially useful on Server Environments which by default do not have the App Store installed. Add, edit, delete, share, organize and quickly find your remote connections. Microsoft's official stance on this, is to use a more modern tool such as the Windows App, or built in Remote Desktop Connection Client (MSTSC), stating that these newer tools receive security updates on a regular basis. RDCMan v2.81 This update to RDCMan, a utility for managing multiple remote desktop connections, resolves a crash happening on failure to connect to server groups. I have uploaded the installer for Remote Desktop Connection Manager v2.7 to my Google Drive for safe keeping, the link can be found below:ĭownload Remote Desktop Connection Manager v2.7 "To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker could create an RDG file containing specially crafted XML content and convince an authenticated user to open the file," Microsoft said in a security advisory for CVE-2020-0765. Recently Microsoft has discontinued this tool, due to a security bug: Remote Desktop Manager for Android is a free tool that enables access to all your remote connections and passwords.

Back in the late 2000s Microsoft released Remote Desktop Connection Manager, which gained popularity due to not many alternatives being around at the time, this is a tool which I use regularly, as do many others.
