Today I got a call from client that he can’t connect to his Remote Desktop Service from his Windows 7 client.
He would get following error: The
remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the
licensing protocol. Please try connecting to the remote computer again
or contact your server administrator.
Since I was sure the licensing was in order I searched for another possible problems.
The cause of the problem was in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSLicensing.
So here is one of possible solutions if you are
getting this error when trying to connect to Terminal Server (Be sure to
backup your registry before you do this or export the MSLicensing keys,
in case this isn’t the cause of your problems):
- Open registry editor (Start > Run > regedit)
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ and find MSLicensing folder
- Right click on it and select delete
- Start Remote Desktop Client (Start>Run>mstsc) as local administrator to rebuild the deleted keys
