I was guessing that Remote Assistance would be the proposed alternative so thanks for confirming it.
Sometimes the lack of reasoning provided by Microsoft is extremely frustrating. Us logical folk are usually happy with a change if we understand (and somewhat agree with) why it was done. James.

Unfortunately Shadowing was removed. Some people blame Citrix and some blame MS but Citrix had nothing to do with the removal of Shadowing. Citrix is also forced to use Remote Assistance for both XenApp and XenDesktop. There has been a lot of weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth about this but MS hasnt changed anything. If your users use multiple monitors, you cant use shadowing for that scenario either. MS says to use Remote Assistance. With the wide spread adoption of multiple monitor use in business, I dont understand the lack of shadowing support for multiple monitors. I am sure there is a technological reason behind these decisions to drop Shadow support. But with the programming brain power that MS has available to them, I dont understand why they cant solve this issue. I am no longer a developer, and dont play one on TV, so I have no idea of the challenges involved with providing Shadow support in multi monitor scenarios or in Server 2012/Win8.

Thanks Rene but Im referring to Remote Controlling a users remote desktop session on a remote desktop session host. James.
