is it possible to copy a file in an RDC session running on my laptop and
paste it on my local laptop desktop? if so, how? i am connected to the work
server when running RDC and i am the newbie administrator with admin rights.
thanks for any assistance.
 
RE: copy/paste between RDC session and desktop

There is a plug in to RDP that allows this but I am having a devil of a time
finding it. I haven't had to look for it in a while. Most people, however,
jsut use mapped drives or UNC paths to shares to move things back and forth.

Hope this works for you.

Yes, that will work to map drives. There is a plug in that lets you cut and
past files between the desktop and an RDP session. I'll keep looking.
