Changing landing folder on RDP

Hi,
Totally new to xfce i'm using xrdp to remote login to my server.
It works well, but i'm landing on a "desktop" that contains all my files from /Home.
Can i change in which folder the rdp session is landing?
By the way on my (ubuntu) server with xfce i'm on my desktop getting nothing. Perfect.
I've to click left up Activities to go somewhere and i like that.

Is there someway to get this also on the RDP connection?
I've looked already in a lot of config files but i can't find a setting that defines the landing folder.

Thanks in advance for your advises,
Ron

Re: Changing landing folder on RDP

Hello and welcome.

It sounds like the xdg-user-dirs on your server is incorrect. Have a look at the file ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file to make sure that HOME points to your home directory.
