Windows 10: Disable Remote Desktop - Win 10

Within File Explorer, I just noticed what appears to be a remote machine, connected to my local machine, via the Network architecture.


When I select Network, a single machine appears. When I right mouse click on it, I am presented with an option to "Connect With Remote Desktop Connection". When I select that, I am presented with a Remote Desktop Connection dialog box which says: "Your computer could not connect to another console session on the remote computer because you already have a console session in progress."


All Attempts to disable / remove this annoyance have been met with failure. Any ideas?

:)

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.
