Awesome idea, but I need multiple entries for the same machine. 90% of the time I'll connect normally, but that other 10% I need to connect via console, because 2 people are already logged in (using console is a way to get a third connection). However, can't do this currently.

Thanks!

    You know, on further reflection, the "Manual" will work well enough. Could I change my request to "change 'Manual' to 'Manual Connection'"? Thanks.

    You can, just use 2 different DisplayNames pointing to the same machine name. Ex:

    <RDPConnection MachineName="tst2" DisplayName="tst2"/>
    <RDPConnection MachineName="tst2" DisplayName="tst2 Console" ConnectToConsole="1" />

    The display names have to be different, but that is pretty much the only restriction.
