# KeePass plugin installation on a RDS

Using Remote Desktop Manager and KeePass on a Remote Desktop Service require multiple steps.

### Requirements

The installation of Remote Desktop Manager follows [Terminal Services / Remote Desktop Services](https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/installation/client/terminal-services/).

Make sure that the installation of KeePass was successful and is not on a network drive.

### KeePass plugin

1. [Download the KeePass plugin](https://keepass.info/download.html).
2. Unzip the files in the installation folder of KeePass (e.g., `C:\Program Files (x86)\KeePass Password Safe 2`).
3. KeePass installation path (`File – Settings – Clipboard – Paths – Configure installation path`), has to be configured in **default.cfg** refereed in [Terminal Services / Remote Desktop Services](https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/installation/client/terminal-services/).
4. To manually edit **default.cfg**, adjust the path and add the line in context: `C:\Program Files (x86)\KeePass Password Safe 2`.

Whenever Remote Desktop Manager is started and it detects a new default.cfg file, a dialog window will appear.

By selecting Use new configuration, the user's configuration is simply overwritten. If you only wish to update the Remote Desktop Manager license key after a renewal, choose ***Retrieve new registration only***.
