Does anyone know where to find the syntax of available options for the RDP
file? If you open an RDP file in Notepad, it has various settings that I
would like to know about.

You can find then here:

Re: RDP Config File Syntax

I did see this link, but it appears to be missing some parameters. For
instance winposstr: and screen mode id:

Maybe this from a previous version?

This is useful though...

Re: RDP Config File Syntax

That's true. Strangely enough, there is no publicly available
document on the MS site which lists them all, AFAIK.
But if you are interested in the winposstr parameter, check these
links:
