ESC, Shift, Alt, CTRL not working over RDP

Post by fylson »

Hi, i am working at home over windows remotedesktop. (The PC stands right next to me, but i only use one set of monitors, thats why i am using rdp).

I using a Spacemouse Pro Wireless and plugged the wirelesstransmitter directly into the remotepc itself (not working if i am using it in my normal pc, even with some instructions from the internet).

Everything works fine but these 4 keys not working. I reading somewhere this could be, because some "virtual keyboard"-errors. Is this the issue? If i am using the virtual keypad function, it shows to me, or is this an other thing?

Did someone know a solution for it?




Window Remote Desktop (Windows 10)
Spacemouse Wireless Pro (Plugged into Remotedesktop)

You can try adding this to your %appdata%\3Dconnexion\3DxWare\Cfg\Global.xml file

Code: Select all

<KMJMechanism>SendInput</KMJMechanism>
