Release 2.41 introduces the following new features:

  • RDP admin sessions: The connection settings for Windows VMs now include an additional setting, Session type. When you set this to Admin, IAP Desktop connects to the VM in administrative mode, similar to mstsc /admin. (#1326)

  • Type clipboard text: In situations where you can't use copy/paste to copy text to a Remote Desktop session, you can now let IAP Desktop simulate keyboard input by using the Session > Type clipboard text command.

  • Instance properties: The Instance properties window now shows additional details, including VM metadata, CPU architecture, and labels.

In addition, the release includes several stability improvements and fixes, including:

  • Linux usernames containing dots weren't acccepted, despite being POSIX-compliant (#1312, fix contributed by @dave-pollock)

Additional notes:

  • IAP Desktop will soon drop support for Windows 8.1 and Windows 2012 R2 as these versions of Windows are past their end of life.
  • Future releases of IAP Desktop might only be made available for 64-bit versions of Windows.
