Thank you Dirk. &nbsp;I thought it might be related to the RDP service since I have 2 RDP server that it doesn't work on and all other non-RDP servers it works fine. &nbsp;A little more digging , and I think I have found the problem to be with the Administrator profile, as I can get it from another user account. &nbsp;I will try recreating the user account later, probably this weekend, as this server gets used late at night.

Thanks, I will give that a try. &nbsp;It does work from a different admin account.

Recreating the Administrator's profile did fix the issue. &nbsp;Thanks for your help.

I have a 2008 R2 RDP server, and while trying to trouble shoot some issues I tried to open the Resource Monitor from the Performance tab on the Task Manager. &nbsp;When I open it, all I get is a transparent window that maintains an image of what ever you put in front of it. &nbsp;This server is a new fresh install, replacing an older server which also had the same issue. &nbsp;Is there a way to get the Resource Monitor to work on an RDP server? &nbsp;It works fine on all other servers. &nbsp;Thanks!
