Please don't "report" questions as bugs

Found a bug? - We would like to help you and smash the bug away.

Before reporting a bug have a look into our issue tracker to see if the bug was already reported and you can add some additional information.

  1. Is it security related? https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/policy
  2. If it's a new bug - create a new issue.
    To save time and help us identify the issue a bug report should at least contain the following:
    • an useful description of the bug - "It's not working" isn't good enough - you must try harder ;)
    • the steps to reproduce the bug
    • command line you have used
    • to what system did you connect to? (win8, 2008, ..)
    • what did you expect to happen?
    • what actually happened?
    • freerdp version (e.g. xfreerdp --version) or package version or git commit
    • operating System, architecture, distribution e.g. linux, amd64, debian
    • if you built it yourself add some notes which branch you have used, also your cmake parameters can help
    • extra information helping us to find the bug
