    Hello, I do not know if I write in a good section, if not, I'm sorry and I ask you to transfer.
    I work on a laptop and an additional monitor, I use the laptop for mail and browser and the monitor to connect to the remote desktop. I would like to add another monitor so that it can also use the remote desktop. When in the connection settings, the screen tab selects to use all monitors to connect, a remote screen appears on all three displays. How can I set up the remote desktop on two monitors and my desktop remaining on the laptop?

    I know that, I just want RDP on two monitors and that there is a laptop desktop. As in the RDP connection settings I choose "use all screen" then I have RDP for 3.

Briefly, you should try through the GPO on the service server to limit the number of monitors available in the session, or try to create a manual connection configuration on the client. Here you have it described. By the way, a suggested change in the RDP client - adding such functionality that allows limiting available monitors, is celebrating 6 years ...

    That was what I meant. Thanks, mate.
    Unfortunately, I do not have access to the server, I am an ordinary user. You probably need to contact the IT department at work. It is a pity that the RPD client cannot choose the number of monitors. From the rest of the link provided by you results from either at all is RPD or only one. It is not possible 2 out of 3 ...

    After contacting the helpdesk, it was found that this was not possible, only reducing the resolution and extending to 2 screens of the RDP client
