At the risk of sounding backwards, and being pointed out that this functionality has existed for years, I would like to share this little Remote Desktop gem that I found out about today.
In the latest Remote Desktop client (I am on Windows 7) it appears that you can copy files from your local machine to your remote desktop session (and vice versa) using the clipboard. There is no need to browse through ‘shared tsclient’ drives, just copy the source file, browse to the destination folder in your remote desktop session and paste.
It even works when pasting files directly into your application, such as Outlook emails.
Remote Desktop drive sharing doesn’t even need to be enabled.
This is such a time saver.
