Remote Apps are applications that are available for students and employees to run remotely using Remote Desktop Connection. Please select the file below to download and run a remote app.

Download Remote Desktop Connection

Windows

Remote Desktop is included with Windows, but there may be an update available for your machine.

Version 7 which is included in Windows 7 is available here for older versions of Windows:

Login

To login to the remote application, double click on the shortcut and use the following information:

  • username: gustie\youremailusername
  • password: youremailpassword

If you receive a prompt about verification, click yes to accept.

Remote Apps

As the system is further tested, more options will become available.


Troubleshooting

If you are experiencing difficulties connecting, please try the following:

  • Ensure you are entering gustie\youre-mailusername (do not include @gustavus.edu) and youre-mailpassword as the password.
  • If your password is being denied, try to login to and log back out. This will ensure your password is synced with the remote apps server. After logging into webmail, try to login to the Remote App again.

Additional remote access options

Virtual Lab is an alternative to the Remote Apps. Virtual Lab offers remote access to an entire lab desktop instead of just one application.
