USB for Remote Desktop is an application that solves USB-related problems for users who often work with Remote Desktop in the office. Specifically, it redirects USB devices connected to your local computer the one you use to access the remote computer to consume content from devices on the remote host. It is a lightweight program that runs invisibly in the taskbar and monitors all USB ports on your local host. USB devices are redirected via Microsoft RDB, Teradici PCoIP, or Citrix ICA.
The installation package is customizable because you can install a workstation component, a server module, or both. The workstation model means it will be installed on a local computer to which USB peripherals are physically connected so that devices can be redirected to a remote computer. On the other hand, the server is installed on a remote computer to which the USB devices will be redirected, allowing you to connect to it and access the redirected USB devices from your localhost. No configuration is required as USB ports are automatically routed to the remote host via Remote Desktop USB.
To activate a USB device on a remote computer, you just need to open the taskbar icon menu and click on the device you want to connect. Obviously, as long as the USB device is connected to the remote computer, it cannot be connected and used locally. Be sure to unplug your device before exiting Remote Desktop USB, as it doesn’t do it automatically.
