  1. Someone is remoting my desktop?


    I am the only one in my family that has access to this computer, yet I see something along the lines of remote desktop which is taking a bit of my cpu. And the strange thing is, I've never been remoted. When I open the file location it says " dwm.exe ". Am I hacked, or is this a bug? How can I get it fixed? Please respond

  2. remote desktop

    Hello,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Please help me with the below details to understand your issue in a better way:



    1. Are you using the Microsoft remote desktop app?


    If you are using the Microsoft remote desktop app downloaded from
    Microsoft store then, I suggest you to follow the steps to
    fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store
    .



    If the issue still persists with the Microsoft remote desktop app, then you can contact the support team by going to the

    link
    and scrolling down to the bottom and clicking on
    Microsoft remote desktop support under the Publisher info.



    However, if you are using the Remote desktop connection, which comes pre-installed with Windows 10, then I suggest you to please post your question in the
    TechNet forum.



    Hope it helps.
