The RDP Client Window May Not Scroll Correctly (818829)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows CE .NET 4.0

SYMPTOMS

If an "always-on-top" window is being shown by Microsoft Windows CE while an RDP client session is active, the contents of the always-on-top window may appear over portions of the RDP client window when you scroll the remote content.

Always-on-top windows are typically system windows such as the taskbar or a soft-input panel.

CAUSE

The RDP client for Windows CE scrolls the contents of the remote session without checking for intersecting windows that are on top of its main window. If other windows are on top of the RDP client window, the bitmap image of the other windows' content is also scrolled. When the scrolling of the RDP client window is complete, the always-on-top window is repainted at its original location. This leaves a fragment of the original top window on top of portions of the RDP client window.

RESOLUTION

A supported software update is now available from Microsoft as Windows CE 4.0 Core OS QFE 818829. To resolve this problem immediately, click the following article number for information about obtaining Windows CE Platform Builder and core operating system software updates:
