    Set-DisplayResolution -Width 1920 -Height 1080 -Force

    name it resolution.ps1

    saved in C:\myTestFolder

    and run it from command line after RDP disconnection, like below..... (my scripts are driven by batch files)

    WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe C:\myTestFolder\resolution.ps1

    There is a "console" even for AWS remote machines.  The resizeing down to that smaller size has to do with that console resolution.

     

    Connect via RDP to your desktop in console mode and change the resolution there.  Then, next time you disconnect, it will use that console resolution.

     

    I believe that there are registry settings for this as well but I don't know what they are off the top of my head.

      this setting is used when connecting from client (RDP) machine.

      my problem is when disconnected from RDP and test running auto- itself
