# Session tools

When you attempt to use ***Computer Management***, you receive the error `Access is denied(5)`.

### Solution

To get this working, you need to select ***Use default credentials*** in the ***Management Tools*** tab of the RDP session.

If this does not solve your issue, it is likely that your session has ***User-specific settings*** enabled.

This can be useful when you are using tools such as:

* Hyper-V
* Event Viewer
* Computer Management
* Windows Services

If this is often needed, we recommend you to change the ***Default Settings*** of the entry type. With this modification, all your new sessions will use the specified credentials when a tool is launched.
