How to remove connected remote desktop user sessions using PowerShell?
We can remove connected RDP sessions using PowerShell and for that, we can use the cmd command “reset session” in PowerShell. Let’s see the supported parameters for it.
Example
PS C:\> reset session /?
Reset the session subsytem hardware and software to known initial values.
RESET SESSION {sessionname | sessionid} [/SERVER:servername] [/V]
sessionname Identifies the session with name sessionname.
sessionid Identifies the session with ID sessionid.
/SERVER:servername The server containing the session (default is current).
/V Display additional information.We can provide here session ID or Name and also the remote server name.
Suppose we have below active sessions on a remote computer called Test1-Win2k12,
We can disconnect the remote sessions using Session Name or the Session ID. First, we will disconnect the remote sessions with session ID 1.
reset session 1 /server:test1-win2k12
When we query the session again,
Example
query session /server:Test1-win2k12
Output
Now we will disconnect the session called rdp-tcp#0 using the SessionName,
reset session rdp-tcp#0 /server:test1-win2k12
Let’s query the session again and it should get disconnected from the remote server.
