  1. An update removed remote desktop ability?


    My wife just got ready to start working and noticed she can't find the remote desktop through search anymore. I rushed to my pc and yes, there was an update ready to install and my wife was able to use remote desktop on my pc. She can now work. I work through Citrix so I don't have an issue. So far...

    Before I pay up twice 145 euro for 2 pro licenses, are there any other options I have?

  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.
