Optional extra

Print, scan and use your webcam in the session

Questions and answers.

Is Alcedo RDP free?

Yes. Alcedo RDP is free for Mac and Linux: on the Mac App Store, and as .deb, .rpm and AppImage packages on this page.

Do I need anything on the server?

Nothing extra. Like any remote desktop client, Alcedo RDP connects to Windows desktops and RemoteApp programs over RDP on its own. Printing, scanning and webcam are an optional extra: they work when the server also runs TSPrint 3.2.4.34, TSScan 3.5.5.6 or TSWebCam 1.0.9.10 or later.

Which Linux package do I need?

The .deb package for Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint, Pop!_OS or Zorin OS, the .rpm package for Fedora, or the AppImage for any other distribution. Most PCs need x86_64; if you are not sure, run uname -m in a terminal.

How do I update or remove Alcedo RDP on Linux?

To update, install the new version the same way. Your connections are kept. To remove Alcedo, run sudo apt remove alcedo-rdp or sudo dnf remove alcedo-rdp, or delete the AppImage file.

Does Alcedo RDP run on Intel-based Macs?

No. On Mac, Alcedo RDP needs macOS 12.4 or later and a Mac with Apple M1 chip or later.
