TECHNICALLY you don't need to download the file to the client machine, but you need to get the RDP file to the client somehow. Otherwise how will your RDP application know what connection configuration to use? Other options you have (that I can think of) are: 1- have the end user write the RDP file on their own 2- instead of download, put the file on a USB drive and share it that way 3- create an "application launcher" tool that can download and run the RDP file for the end user without them needing to download anything

But the client NEEDS the .rdp file in order to access the remote resources. Unless I am misreading what you are asking, what you want doesn't make sense to me.

Hello, Sir Thank you for quick reply. I think I couldn't explain myself well enough to you, I have send a link of a software, this is also same web interface, if you have a little time please go through this software's, but not need to download any thing for client. he can all softare in his dashboard, and when click this icon automatically open this software in web interface.,

My opinion - that is not what this FREE tool is designed for. RaWeb is designed to be a web host alternative to using Microsoft's tool for remote application hosting and RemoteAppTool is designed to be an alternative to Microsoft's configuration for the remote application hosting. What you linked appears to be an application to handle remote app hosting that may or may not be using the RDP protocol. What you found is a neat tool, but is outside the scope of RaWeb and RemoteAppTool. Both RaWeb and RemoteAppTool are server-side tools, what you are showing is a client side tool. IF that tool is a client-side tool for remote apps and relies on the RDP protocol for it to work AND for either Microsoft Remote Apps or RaWeb/RemoteAppTool to be set up server side, then in the background, that tool is downloading the RDP file and starting MSTSC (Microsoft Terminal Server Connection, the default built in RDP client) to run things.

I think if you want that functionality, you have 3 options: 1- buy a license for connect21 2- write your own tool to handle the client side RDP 3- hope someone else has a similar free tool they can build for you

RaWeb and RemoteAppTool both do not support what you are asking for and adding it in is not possible as these are both server side tools. A brand new tool would need to be created for this which is a non-trivial amount of work to do. You may find someone who is willing to develop it (Kimm Knight may even do it), but it is outside the scope of both RaWeb and RemoteAppTool.

Does what I said make sense? If so, I will close this issue as "Won't Fix" as it is not a feature of a server-side tool, but is a brand new client side tool.
