Abstract
Methods and systems for enhancing remote desktop experiences are described herein. A computing device may launch a remote desktop session. During the remote desktop session, the computing device may receive user input requesting a file to be launched at the computing device using a native application. The computing device may receive, from a remote desktop server, the file. Using a local application, the computing device may launch the file.
Claims18
A computing device, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to:
- send, along with a request to establish a remote desktop session, client security information indicating one or more security parameters corresponding to the computing device;
- launch the remote desktop session;
- receive, during the remote desktop session, user input requesting a file to be launched at the computing device using a local application installed on the computing device;
- receive, from a remote desktop server, the file;
- and
- launch, using the local application, the file,
- wherein the remote desktop server is configured to select an access method for the file based on the client security information.

A method comprising:
- at a computing device comprising at least one processor, a communication interface, and memory:
- sending, along with a request to establish a remote desktop session, client security information indicating one or more security parameters corresponding to the computing device;
- launching the remote desktop session;
- receiving, during the remote desktop session, user input requesting a file to be launched at the computing device using a local application installed on the computing device;
- sending, to a remote desktop server, a request to access the file;
- and
- launching, using the local application, the file,
- wherein the remote desktop server is configured to select an access method for the file based on the client security information.

A computing device, comprising:
- at least one processor;
- memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the computing device to:
- send, along with a request to establish a remote desktop session, client security information indicating one or more security parameters corresponding to a client device;
- establish the remote desktop session;
- receive, during the remote desktop session, a request for a file to be launched at the client device using a local application installed on the client device;
- retrieve the file from a remote desktop server;
- and
- send, to the client device, the file, wherein sending the file causes the client device to launch the local application installed on the client device and configured to access the file,
- wherein the remote desktop server is configured to select an access method for the file based on the client security information.
