folders open on host computer

hi
I use window remote desktop to connect to my ubuntu computer using xrdp. After I enter the ubuntu xfce desktop and click any folders or file systems, they opens on the host Ubuntu computer.
How to fix it?

Re: folders open on host computer

the thunar file manager icon and folder were shown on the host ubuntu computer. Is there a setting in certain config file to tell the xfce to display the file folders on the remote computer?
Thank you,

There is no setting in thunar or Xfce that would do this. Perhaps there is something in xrdp settings that is doing this? Maybe like a seamless mode? What remote desktop client are you using for the connection?

Thank you so much for your reply. I use  windows' remote desktop program on my window 11 system. 

After some troubles, it works now. I tried to reinstall xfce, thunar etc and after restart it worked.
