Option 1 - Modifying termsrv.dll

To have concurrent user sessions working in Windows 10, you need to make small changes to termsrv.dll file. This file is located in C:\Windows\System32 folder. Before modifying termsrv.dll for the first time, you need to take ownership and assign yourself full permissions. You also need to stop Remote Desktop service (TermService) if it's running.

DLL files can be modified using any HEX Editor (for example Tiny Hexer). You can do this yourself by replacing strings shown below, or just download patched versions from this page.

Option 2 - RDP Wrapper

Instead of modifying termsrv.dll file you can use RDP Wrapper which acts as a middleman between Terminal Services and Service Control Manager. This way you don't need to touch termsrv.dll file. Actually, if you already modified your termsrv.dll file, you need to revert to the original version before using this method.

Download and extract RDPWrap-v1.6.1.zip (or newer), then run install.bat as admin. After installation is completed, run RDPConfig.exe. If all items under Diagnostics are green, you should be good to go.


If "Listener state" is "Listening [not supported]", you will need to update the wrapper's configuration (.ini) file. With the latest version of RDP Wrapper you no longer need to update rdpwrap.ini manually. Simply run update.bat and everything will be done automatically.

If update.bat doesn't add support to your Windows version, try checking Open Issues on RDP Wrapper GitHub page. You may find how to manually update rdpwrap.ini until official support is added.
