Windows 10: Does anyone know when Windows App will support local RDP connections?

The Microsoft decision makers are once again releasing a replacement product that does not work. And they have no potential date for a working version. It's my opinion that they are not planning on releasing a working version until they can charge monthly for what was once a free application.

Local printers not redirecting in RDP connection

My client has a Windows 2011 Small Business Server using Active Directory. Due to COVID-19, they have enacted work from home measures. One of their employees is using RDP to connect to their office computer remotely. Their local computer is Windows 10 and
their remote computer is Windows 7 Professional. They are trying to print work they are working on in remote computer to their local printers. When setting up their RDP, I made sure to check Printers in local resources. Interestingly, one of the printer options
(fax) does redirect, but none of her others, which are networked printers using a WSD port.

They are using their AD credentials to establish the RDP connection to their remote computer.

I'm not sure if there is a setting or a driver that needs to be installed on either the remote computer or the Server. This has been an ongoing issue for more than one user at this organization, which suggests to me that there's some setting we are missing
or there is something that must be done on the Server.

 

RDP connection fails from Microsoft account to Local Admin account

Issue:

• Windows 10 Pro desktop cannot connect to another Windows 10 Pro desktop on the same wired network.
  

Details:

• When connection is attempted, an error states the credentials are invalid.
• The credentials entered are the local admin account on the target computer.
  • Computer attempting the connection is logged into the Microsoft account.
• When both computers were running Windows 7 Pro - there were no RDP issues.

Troubleshooting:

• Confirmed credentials are correct and CAPS is turned off.
• Firewall rule for Remote Desktop is enabled and option is enabled in the System Properties.
  • Connection to target computer is successful using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S that is connected to the WLAN.
• Downloaded Remote Desktop app from the Windows Store.
  • Encounter the same "Invalid Credentials" error as the Remote Desktop Connection software.
• Updated firmware for router (Netgear R6300).
• Power cycled both desktops.

Resolution:

• Logging into the Microsoft account on the remote computer resolved the issue.

Conclusion:

• When you're trying to establish a Remote Desktop Connection from a computer that is logged into your Microsoft account to a computer that is logged in to the Local Admin account, the connection will fail stating the credentials are invalid.

 

RDP not allowing remote connection

I had it working perfectly fine the other day but I logged into my server, removed a open port and both computer quit.

I run the computers with the firewall off, I see no point in them being on, it's a windows firewall a hacker will know how to get around so fire wall is OFF.

Ports are 9000 for server and 3390 for htpc

ip:9000
ip:3390

This does not work from a linux workstation using 'Remote Desktop Client'

It does not work from mac RDP
It does not work from windows RDP
And it does not work from my iphone.

I know it's enabled as I can RDP into the computers at my home (except htpc at the moment, I think that one needs restarted)

Ports are open, both tcp / udp ports are open using the internal server IP wich is MAC assigned by the router. Server - 10.0.1.2 - 9000
And same thing for the htpc - 10.0.1.8 - 3390

Besides the obvious of firewall, ports, and 'remote connection enabled' any ideas?
