Fix for Windows Server 2012 Remote Desktop Session Sharing/Shadowing

Windows Server 2012 does now allow remote session sharing or shadowing with Remote Desktop. Remote Desktop Protocol version 8.1 packages have been re-released to address this problem. . RDP 8.1 is available on the Microsoft Download Center. In order to install the Remote Desktop Protocol 8.1 client for Windows 7 SP1,the following updates should be installed in the order shown:

1. KB 2574819: An update is available that adds support for DTLS in Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 
2. KB 2857650: Update that improves the RemoteApp and Desktop Connections features is available for Windows 7
3. KB 2830477: Update for RemoteApp and Desktop Connections feature is available for Windows
4. KB 2913751: Smart card redirection in remote sessions fails in a Windows 7 SP1-based RDP 8.1 client
5. (Optional) If you experience connection reliability issues after installing KB 2913751, then installing KB 2923545: Update for RDP 8.1 is available for Windows 7 SP1 .

I wrote the following program that will allow you to list all server user sessions. After that you should be able to share session.
