When you launch a remote desktop in a web browser on a desktop or laptop computer, the toolbar appears as follows:
The top area of the toolbar is used to drag the toolbar up or down. Click and hold it and then drag the toolbar to the desired position. The arrow icon is used to show or hide the toolbar items.
The main toolbar items are (from top to bottom):
Full screen. Display the remote desktop in full screen on the local computer.
Upload a file. Upload a file from the local computer to the remote server. After clicking this item, you are presented with two dialogs, one after another. In the first dialog, select a file on the local computer you wish to upload. In the second dialog, select a location on the remote server where you want to save the file.
Download a file. Download a file from the remote server to the local computer. After clicking this item, select a file on the remote server you wish to download. Depending on your web browser configuration, the download will start automatically or you will be asked to select a destination folder on your local computer.
Shortcuts. Display the Shortcuts menu (see below for the menu description).
Clipboard. Display the remote clipboard. Please see Using the remote clipboard for more information.
The Shortcuts menu allows you to send keystrokes and key sequences to the remote desktop:
Escape. Sends the "Escape" keystroke to the remote desktop.
Tab. Sends the "Tab" keystroke.
Backspace. Sends the "Backspace" keystroke.
