Anyone have issues with Eclipse over Remote Desktop Connection?

What ended up working for me was the memory settings for the JVM. Apparently the remote desktop connection, or some other setting in Windows, blocks off a fairly large amount of space. By reducing the heap size allocation for the JVM during Eclipse and server start-up I was able to get this working. As a side note, I had PLENTY of space that windows could have used, so I don't think blankly adding more memory would necessarily solve the issue. If you find another solution, please let me know.


• We came across an issue when user RDC’s to a remote system where the OS is Windows 10 and has a running Eclipse instance, the Eclipse instance terminates

• Eclipse is one of the IDE’s for Java

• The issue is because of Windows 10 Exploit protection

• Pre-requisite: You will need Administrative permissions for executing the below

• Navigate to Settings -> Update & Security -> Windows Security -> App & Browser Control -> Exploit Protection Settings

• Add the program to exclude as below

P.s. As of Window 10 1909 MS security advisory mentions we can disable some exploit protections by default.


Perhaps it is permission related. take a look at similar issue that symantec has:

Try to see if you have same patches installed that causes the security issue. Also refer to application log to see if there is a more specific error. Good luck :)
