How to Cut and Paste from Mac to Windows in Windows Remote Desktop RDC

I use command+C to copy the password, but when I switch over to the RDC session and click command+V, nothing happens.

1. Use command+C to copy on the mac
2. Switch over to the RDP session
3. Use control+V to paste in the RDP session using your mac keyboard

Try testing it out using TextExit on the Mac to paste to Notepad on Windows. As where you'r trying to paste the Password may have restrictions/issues.

If you are still having issues.

Select the RDP from the main menu (close current session)

1. Click 'Edit'

2. Click 'Session'

3. Check that 'Limit copy and paste to remote session' is Unticked.

4. Reconnect session and test again.

With Microsoft Remote Desktop 10 app I have noticed that to paste something to a PowerShell window I had to perform sort of a "double paste":

1. hit Command+V keys
2. in the PowerShell window's context menu (top left window corner, the app icon) click Edit -> Paste (This option is not active until you do step 1.)
