MultiRDPManager - Multi-session Remote Desktop Connection Manager for Windows (RDP multi-connection manager)

A WPF/.NET 8 desktop app for managing multiple RDP sessions simultaneously, built on FreeRDP via the RoyalApps community wrapper. It targets sysadmins who need to control several Windows servers at once — the group control feature (broadcast keyboard/mouse to all sessions) is the differentiator over plain mstsc.

The group control mode using WH_MOUSE_LL/WH_KEYBOARD_LL global hooks is genuinely useful for ops tasks like patching a fleet of identical servers. Shipping as a self-contained single-file exe with no runtime dependency is the right call for IT environments where you can't install anything. Real-time thumbnail previews across all sessions is a practical alternative to alt-tabbing. CSV import for bulk server onboarding is a sensible ops-facing feature.

Zero stars, one author, v1.0.0 — this is essentially a personal tool that may not survive past the author's own use. Passwords stored in a CSV file and presumably in whatever local storage they use is a credential management problem waiting to happen; there's no mention of encryption or Windows Credential Manager integration. The repo ships the entire FreeRDP 3.27.0 source tree and extracted ffmpeg binaries committed directly — that's not how dependencies should be managed and it means security patches in those libraries require manual updates. The CC BY-NC-SA license blocks commercial use, which rules it out for most corporate environments where this kind of tool would actually be needed.
