    Remote Desktop - Accessing Local Resources


    I would like to make local devices connected to my laptop (i.e. HP scanner) accessible in my Remote Desktop Connection. I am running WIN10 Pro. I cannot locate the Remote Desktop Connections dialogue box that would allow me to specify which Local Resources I want to configure/access.


    Perhaps it is because the laptop is managed by a remote Administrator that I cannot see/find this dialogue box. Any help and guidance is greatly appreciated.


    Cheers, Dave M.

    :)

    I am trying to setup a remote desktop connection and see exactly what the logged on user is looking at with out going through Windows Remote Desktop.

    Since its local network I don't have any password or want to setup a password.

    Any suggestions are appreciated

    Remote Desktop App - share resources

    Using the Remote Desktop App from the Store I have not been able to share resources of the host computer with the remote desktop.

    No such option is available and it seems like one cannot share the local drives with the remote desktop.

    Is this a limitation of the app?
