# How to configure RDP settings and preferences


# How to configure RDP settings and preferences

Admins and Users can configure RDP settings and preferences via the [TruGrid Desktop Connectors](/en/article/where-are-the-trugrid-desktop-connectors-5u98cm/) or the TruGrid web portal. Settings configured on the Web or Desktop Connectors will be respected by all TruGrid Connector applications. If you would like, you can push the default settings to your primary or subdomain via the connector app.

|| RDP preference settings are only available for TruGrid BUSINESS plans and not the TruGrid BASIC plans. You have TruGrid BUSINESS if you can see the SETTINGS option.
|| If you are remoting into a Windows 7 machine, multi-monitors are only supported on Windows 7 enterprise and Windows 7 ultimate editions [per Microsoft's licensing](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4340331/windows-10-set-up-dual-monitors). 
|| Screen resolution settings are not respected by the mobile connectors at this time

**Using TruGrid Desktop Connector**

You must be logged in as a TruGrid administrator login in order to push settings to domains. After settings are configured need to click SAVE button. See below example.
