Headless setup only connects once

[kickstart24]

I'm running a headless setup with windows 11, and for some reason, when i use remote desktop connection, i can connect once. When i disconnect, i cant reconnect. I have to force a shut down and reboot in order to connect again.

any idea what could be causing this?

@kickstart24 That's Windows RDP for ya—it's done the same for me too for several years now (multiple computers). Jump Desktop is a great alternative!

Thanks for that tip Techie007L
. Jump Desktop allows for live audio from Blue Iris where Windows RDP is lacking that function.
