Remote desktop rdp file generated
When using a lot of virtual machines or any other remotedesktop connection, it would be nice to get personal rdp file properly saved – ready to use on own work pc / cloud drive. After this I can get my most used remote desktop connection open quicly and without typing logins over and over again
I thought it is time to re-post this. I find a good solution from Petri.com with a help of Remko Weijnen password encryption utility.

Simply check rdp file (saved by you) on your machine. It looks something like this (minimum as it generated by azure)
full address:s:52.169.105.36:3389
prompt for credentials:i:1
administrative session:i:1
download cryp/decrypt utility to get you password properly in:
cryptRDP5.zip (6.4 KB, 1 view)
To get it generated with a password you must do an old school cmd script like this
:: "hashtool" – location of the hash tool
:: "outputfile" – destination and name for the .rdp file
:: "comp" – computer name (can be FQDN or NetBIOS)
:: "domain" – name of authenticating domain
:: (if stand-alone enter computer name)
:: "usr" – Username
@echo Off
If "%1"=="" Goto EOF
set pwd=%1
Set hashtool="cryptRDP5.exe"
set outputfile="computer1.rdp"
set comp=youraddress.com:[port number]
set domain=domain
set usr=myUsername
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (’%hashtool% %pwd%’) do set pwdhash=%%a
:CreateRDP
