  1. Is there a way yet to seamlessly share resources and desktop between two pcs?


    I'm in a position where I will be transitioning to working remotely, and I want to save desk space by utilizing my same monitors. I'm familiar with KVMs, and even a few virtual kvm software types, but I was wondering if theres a way to seamlessly share resources and desktop between two computers without having to switch back and forth?

    Much of what I will be doing is connecting to a web based software suite that will have you go through the work laptop, but when I'm doing big projects in excel, I'll want the extra horsepower I have on tap with my desktop.

    Desktop is windows 10, laptop is windows 7 pro

    Is there an easier way to do this? Because right now it seems like I'll have to use Input director with the desktop as the master, and just set up shared drives (if I can work around my work's restriction on the laptop).

    Sorry if this seems incredibly vague.

    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?

    Is it possible to share internet connection via remote desktop?

    RDP is not capable of Internet sharing, so you can't share Internet using RDP with standard applications. There are many way to share Internet from a Windows box to another one. I suggest you to use VPN. You should do following steps:

    1. Run VPN Server on your server with unlimited internet access
    2. Connect to VPN server from your limited computer
