Issue with remote desktop connection...

I'm currently using Remote Desktop (although Win 11 to Win 11 machines, and there are no issues there. Will also note I had no issues remoting from a Windows 10 to 11 machine or vice versa. This using Windows built-in Remote Desktop Connection app.

 

Remote Desktop Connection not workin after Win 10 upgrade

I'm just throwing this out there as a possibility, since it resolved my problem. I was trying to connect to the Windows 10 Remote Desktop Server using a very old RDP client on a Windows Mobile 6.5 phone (don't laugh...). This worked with no error on Windows
8.1, but the connection was rejected on Windows 10. I had to do the following to get it to work:

• Open a Run dialog using Win-R. Type "gpedit.msc" and hit Enter.
• On the left tree view, click on Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host > Security
• Double-click on the "Require use of specific security layer for remote (RDP) connections" setting on the right.
• Select the "Enabled" radio button
• Select "Negotiate" from the "Security Layer" drop-down and click OK.

After doing this, I was able to connect to my Windows 10 Remote Desktop Server with no issues. I hope this helps (you or someone else). Thanks.
