How to scale with RDCMan

Q. How can I make remote sessions use scaling with RDCMan on HDI displays?

A. RDCMan is a great utility to enable the management and connectivity to multiple remote instances however when using a HDI display, such as a 4K, scaling does not occur so the text and icons in the remote session are very small. Fortunately the solution is simple:

Open the folder where RDCMan.exe lives, e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Remote Desktop Connection Manager
Right click on RDCMan.exe and select Properties
Select the Compatibility tab
Uncheck the Disable display scaling on high DPI settings checkbox
Click OK
