Hello, we have one tower server that runs windows server 2022 and everyone RDPs in with their own account and they should disconnect after 5 minutes of inactivity. Except for one user that is in the control room and that should not disconnect. I tried using local policy but you can't exclude a user from it and I tried computer management -> users -> session idle log off time but it was inconsistent. I also looked into using GPO but group policy like that is for multiple computers under a domain which is not the case for this. Help on this would be appreciated. I just want all users except one to auto disconnect after 5 minutes on inactivity on their RDP.

I've been trying to figure this out for the longest time, you'd be my hero if you knew how to do this

Powershell to find out disconnected RDP session and log off at the same time

Is there a script that can log out my disconnected RDP session from any server? This is causing a lot of pain and constant ad account lockouts. Any help would be awesome.

Hello, I appreciate the suggestion. I want to just disconnect the user, not log them off. My bad, I'll edit the question
