Connect to a Hyper-V Virtual Machine | Check this option if you want to connect to a Hyper-V Virtual Machine through its machine ID or GUID. Learn in details how to set up a Hyper-V profile.

Enable Wake-on-LAN (WoL) | Check this option if you want to allow a computer to be turned on or awakened by a network message. |
Use the authenticated credentials | Sets a Single sign-on schema. The application credentials will be used to log in automatically on the remote desktop. |
Ask for new credentials | Prompt the user for new credentials to access the remote desktop. |
Use these credentials | If the credentials informed here are correct, this option will connect the user automatically to the remote desktop on selecting the profile, or after authenticating on Thinfinity® Remote Workspace, if this is the only profile the user has. |
