I wonder, if this feature is now supported in Windows 8 Pro or does Remote Desktop work the same way as in Windows 7 Pro? I need to connect to my computer using Remote Desktop Client and use extended desktop on multiple monitors. Please check if this article is helpful. Niki Han. TechNet Community Support.
I am afraid you haven't replied to my question. I am asking about Windows 8 indeed. I would like to know, whether Win8 Pro do support multimonitor terminal service so that I don't have to face the same issues as Windows 7 Pro, that doesn't support it. The article you refer me to, it describes functionality within Win 7 Ultimate and Enteprise. Try this, save your RDC shortcut on the desktop, open it in notepad and change the following values for me it was the first two lines.

Recently I've been receiving questions about the requirements for configuring and using Windows Remote Desktop Connection in a multiple monitor arrangement under Windows Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of accurate information about which editions of Windows support a multiple monitor Remote Desktop configuration, which causes a lot of confusion.
Since it's a simple check box that's available in all versions of Windows, it's easy to think that all you have to do to enable multiple monitor support for a Remote Desktop Connection is select it. However, it's a bit more complex than that, as you need to have the correct editions of Windows on the correct ends of the connection. Let's take a closer look at how to use Remote Desktop Connection with multiple monitors in Windows 10, as well as in Windows 7 and 8.
The term Remote Desktop can be a bit ambiguous, as it's often used to refer to the computers on both ends of the connection. So I'll start with some terminology.
