Donkz (Ruud Hanegraaf)

Donkz is the personal imprint of Dutch developer Ruud Hanegraaf, a specialist in building small, single-purpose Windows utilities that remove everyday friction for system administrators, support desks and power users. The catalogue currently centers on Remote Desktop Plus, a lightweight launcher that wraps Microsoft’s built-in RDP client with extra automation: store credentials securely, pass them from the command line or a simple GUI, spawn pre-sized windows, redirect drives or printers, and chain multiple connections into batch scripts. Typical scenarios include help-desk teams that open dozens of customer servers per shift, consultants who hop between lab VMs while keeping credential vaults offline, or technicians who schedule overnight RDP jobs that must survive reboots and relogons without human input. Because the tool is portable and needs no installation, it slips easily into USB toolkits, WinPE images or CI pipelines that provision test machines. Although the present portfolio is narrow, the underlying design philosophy—command-line first, zero bloat, maximum compatibility from Windows 7 onward—hints at future utilities likely to tackle similar gaps in remote management, credential handling or session scripting. Donkz Remote Desktop Plus is offered for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always resolving to the newest build and permitting unattended batch installation alongside other applications.
