RemoteApp Name problem

February 26th, 2014 Leave a comment Go to comments

At one customer I have implemented RemoteApp on Windows Server 2012 R2. Clients connecting to RemoteApp were Windows 7. Everything worked fine besides one computer. When I launched RemoteApp from application provided automatically using Control Panel, I received following error (This RDP file is corrupted. The remote connection cannot be started.):

When I tried to run application using Web portal everyhing worked fine.

Names of the RemoteApp contained diacritics and name was displayed in bad form:

So I tried to disable all diacritics in RemoteApp names and everything started to work as it should.

Weird things are:

  • There are not limits defined on web for RemoteApp names
  • There are not errors logged anywhere with saying anything about “bad name” in RemoteApp

So remember not to have any other characters in RemoteApp names besides clasis english ones.

Have a nice day,
