Sometimes you need to disconnect a user from a Windows Server. That user can be logged in locally or using RDC (Remote Desktop Connection).

 

Sometimes this is needed because that user connected before using RDP, closes the connection but without proper Logoff . Next time he tries to logon a blank screen apears on RDP.

 

Connect as Administrator. Run in terminal:

 

query session

 

It will give you a list of connected users. Those with "Disc" as status are those who disconnected their RDP session without properly logoff.

 

Run:

 

logoff <session_id>

 

This will disconnect and properly logoff user.
