While in a RDP session Creo opens up using OpenGL graphics. This can hinder the performance over the connection and it is best to start Creo in the console session to avoid this. Here is a batch script that is working for us.
Use this script to launch Creo while connected via RDP. Upon execution the script will send the current session to the console and launch Creo. The user will need to restart RDP but then Creo will be running without using OpenGL graphics.
You may need to change the working and program directories to match your environment.
