Welcome to Remote Desktop Manager

Quick Start

Remote Desktop Manager comes with a local SQL Lite data source. It is enough to quickly test out remote connections (e.g. SSH or Microsoft Remote Desktop) and other types of entries.

To try role-based access control, you need to add an advanced data source.

To add a new data source, click File – Data Sources.

Remote Desktop Manager imports credentials from 16 third-party applications. It is an efficient way to build your data. The imported information can be converted into different types of entry, e.g. username/password, Login (account), and Website.

Configure your Session

  • You can use credential entries to open remote connections, called sessions in Remote Desktop Manager.

  • Credential repositories link one credential or a list of credentials with sessions.

  • To see the types of information you can import, go to File - Import.

When it comes to entries, there are a lot of different options. Here's a quick way to set up an RDP (Microsoft Remote Desktop) entry:

  • Name the entry.

  • Enter the Host address.

  • Choose Credential Repository and link a credential entry with this session. You can also enter the username and password directly in the entry by choosing Default.

  • Now open the session with one click. Click Open Session on the Home tab.
