I’ve had to copy and paste a file from a remote desktop connection to my computer a few times, and I always forget how to enable this functionality so I’m creating this post so I can remember.

At the Remote Desktop Connection window, click on the "Options" button

Then click on the "Local Resources" tab

In  the "Local devices and resources" group box, make sure the "Clipboard" checkbox is checked

Also in the "Local devices and resources" group box, click on the "More" button

Within the TreeView, expand the "Drives" node and select the drives from the remote computer that you want to copy and/or paste files to.

That’s it. Now log in and you should be able to copy and paste files between computers.
