# Windows Remote Desktop Issues

### Windows Remote Desktop cannot connect to XFCE session

solution: ssh into the remote machine and run

```bash
xfce4-session-logout --logout
```

might need to run multiple times until it shows error that cannot logout anymore. then re-login.

### Screen not properly updated
