MessageHi, full screen mode means that your RDP session takes up all the screen 
and you cannot alt+tab to your main desktop.
If you turn this off, you can alt+tab to all the applications on your machine 
machine and to the RDP session.

  Hi, Pat, 
      I tried the alt control pause combination, and JAWS said nothing. What is 
this full screen mode? 
      What does full screen mode mean? What does it do? Also, what is RD? 
  Thanks.

    It happens to me all the time. I use full screen mode when using RD and 
generally can clear the "Stuck" ALT key by toggling back and forth between full 
screen mode using the CTRL-ALT-Pause key combination.

    HTH,
    Pat

    Hi all,
    Has anyone else had a problem with the "alt" key sticking  while in a 
remote desktop session? I experience this after the second time I connect to a 
computer remotely.The only way to make it stop is to restart both the client 
and server computers.

    any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Jason
