- Open the RDPWrap-v1.6.2 .zip file
- Run the install file
- Run the RDPConf file and keep the generated window up
- Check the listener state in the diagnostics box. If the listener state reads "Listening. [fully supported]," then you're good to go. If the current version is not supported (denoted in red) continue to the following steps.
- Open the Command Prompt as an administrator by right clicking on the Command Prompt application icon. Type "net stop term service" and press enter.
- Make note of Service State version (ex: ver. 10.0.14393.2906), denoted in the top right hand corner of the dialogue box.
- Find the rdpwrap.ini file (config file). Likely located in C:/Program Files/RDP Wrapper/rdpwrap.ini
- Search (ctrl F) your service state version in the rdpwrap.ini file in this repository. It should be located in this file twice, once by itself and once with -SL attached to the end.

If access is denied, try opening the notepad app, right clicking the notepad application icon, clicking "run as administrator" and copy-pasting the .ini file text from this repository into the new notepad file. Save as rdpwrap.ini in the original location, overwriting the existing file
- If your version number is not included in the file, check this repository for it. Follow steps 10 & 11 using the text from the .ini file associated with your service state.
- Type "net start term service" in the Command Prompt and press enter.
- Restart the computer
