Remote desktop connection Save password

[Saucer Man]

If I select "save password" in my RDP connection...and then I change my
password, will the connection fail or will it know that I changed my
password and update the connection automatically?

Thanks!

The password is hashed in the rdp file. You will need to update it
appropriately. If you think about it, that's a good thing because what
if you used different credentials to log into a box? If it changed
password automatically, you'd be erroring a lot.
