First press Crtl + Alt + Home to activate the connection bar

or press Ctrl + Alt + Break to switch from full-screen-mode to window mode.

Then press Alt + Tab or any other method you may prefer to switch between open windows.

If I go with Pause/Break, then I can get back to the Remote Desktop in the same way. If I go with Home, then there is no way to get back to the Remote Desktop with keyboard only.
