Hello dgeddes
I have already checked and the log does not appear to exist. In C:\Windows\Logs there are just some sub-folders (BPA, CBS, DISM, DPX and MeasuredBoot). The trace log doesn't exist either (I do have hidden files set to display).
Also having looked in event viewer (Rdms-UI and all Terminal Server folders) nothing seems to relate to the problem and more to when I was setting it up.
I have removed the policies relating to Remote Desktop and ran a GPUPDATE /FORCE but the problem still persists.
I'm wondering if it's worth wiping the virtual server and starting again but I'm not convinced it will help as it was a fresh install of Windows Server 2012 RC and I then went on to try to get RDS working straight away by putting all services on a single server but after installation and rebooting I can't open the RDS section in server msnsger to do any kind of configuration.
Any ideas how else I might be able to troubleshoot this?
I have set this up many times with Server 2008 R2 and it has always just worked so I'm not sure what is different apart from the server version.
Thanks
Robin
