Black Screen When Restoring Minimised RDP Session

When restoring a minimised RDP session, often it will come up with a completely black screen, which won't go away for up to 20 seconds...not productivity friendly!

Try this on the client PC (not the remote server/PC):
  • In registry go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client\
  • Create a new DWORD value named RemoteDesktop_SuppressWhenMinimized
  • Specify 2 as the value data.
