Tscon
Connects to another session.
Syntax
tscon {SessionID | SessionName} [/dest:SessionName] [/password:pw] [/v]
Parameters
SessionID : The ID of the session to which you want to connect. If you use the optional /dest:SessionName parameter, this is the ID of the session to which you want to connect.
SessionName : The name of the session to which you want to connect.
/dest: SessionName : Specifies the name of the current session. This session will disconnect when you connect to the new session.
/password: Password : The password of the user who owns the session to which you want to connect. This password is required when the connecting user does not own the session.
/v : Displays information about the actions being performed.
/? : Displays help at the command prompt.
Remarks
-
You must have Full Control access permission or Connect special access permission to connect to another session.
-
The /dest:SessionName parameter allows you to connect the session of another user to a different session.
-
If you do not specify a password in the Password parameter, and the target session belongs to a user other than the current one, tscon fails.
-
You cannot connect to the console session.
