Remote Desktop Connection monitors

Question

I log into my work pc from home via VPN + Remote Desktop Connection.

When I log into my work PC, do the monitors invoke at work or stay locked and inactive?

In other words, when I working from home on my work pc, do others standing near my pc can see what I'm doing?

For example: with TeamViewer i control remote pc 100%, like i'm working on it, so i have to turn off monitors before leaving work. — user3462947, May 30 '17 at 18:04

No, RDP takes over the console of the computer.

They however will be able to see on your monitor that You are logged in remotely to that specific computer.

Yes, but for example, monitors at work will show login screen or unlocked pc? – user3462947 May 31 '17 at 12:29
It will show that the computer is in use by you, but they can't see whats happening – DarkBee Jun 01 '17 at 07:43
