About

mstsfence makes mstsc.exe, in full-screen mode, size itself to the monitor's work area

instead of the whole monitor -- so the host taskbar stays visible (host taskbar on the

bottom, session taskbar on top) and the remote desktop renders 1:1, with no scaling or

letterboxing.

A small tray controller installs a global hook that the OS maps into mstsc however it was

launched (.rdp file, jump list, Start menu); outside mstsc it does nothing. Inside mstsc it

clamps the monitor-geometry APIs the client reads to the work area, tracking DPI and

resolution changes live. An optional dark-mode pass and a host display-scaling (DPI)

override are included. Staying on stock mstsc keeps all of its credential UX, Credential

Manager integration, and certificate/consent dialogs.
