# Setting up the remote context
In order to run an automation with the Remote Desktop minimized, follow these steps:
Note: These steps must be done on the machine that runs the Remote Desktop, not the Remote Desktop itself.
Note: All instances of Remote Desktop must be closed.
1\) In the Windows search bar, type "run"(or Windows Key + R) and the following window should pop up:
Run box
In it, type "regedit" and press Ok.
2\) In the Registry Editor's search bar, type: "Computer\HKEY\_CURRENT\_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client" and press Enter.
3\) In the folder that you have just opened, right click -> select "New" -> select "DWORD (32-bit) Value"
Change the name of the newly created file to "RemoteDesktop\_SuppressWhenMinimized"
4\) Open the file and in the "Value data" field, put 2 (it's 0 by default).
Click "OK" to save
5\) Restart the PC.
