Windows 10: How to enable Network Level Authentication for RDP?

I have not done anything related to NLA for my Windows 10 Professional. However, I am unable to connect to Windows Servers that have restricted their connections to only those using NLA.




I wonder why my PC does not have NLA or NLA enabled. How do I set it up?


Thanks.

Microsoft Account and Authentication during RDP

Hello, trying to RDP to my windows 10 (fall creators update) via RDP but the RDP client always fails with invalid credential.

I have tried the combinations:

• Microsoft account primary alias and Microsoft account password
• Local username associated with my Microsoft account and Microsoft account password

Neither is accepted for sign in. I have Mobile sign in enabled on my account so I technically never entered my password here.

 

RDP authentication error

Hi,

When using RDP to access a server on the network, I get the following error:

An authentication error has occurred.

The function resuested is not supported.

Remote computer: 10.0.x.x

This could be due to CredSSp encryption oracle remediation.

For more information, see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=866660

How do I resolve this?

P.S.: I am accessing a Windows 2012 server from WIndows 10 PC.

Thanks

Microsoft Account set to use 2 Factor Authentication & Authentication Phone App but it doesn't prompt for authentication when signing in to my Windows 10 PC locally or remotely (via RDP).

OK I created a 2nd Microsoft account and setup the Authentication App on an old phone I had lying around for 2-factor authentication.

Step 1

I logged into this website with that account and it prompted me with the Authentication App so 2 factor is setup correctly on the NEW Microsoft Account.

Step 2

I logged in on my Windows 10 PC with that NEW account and it also DOES NOT PROMPT for 2-Factor Authentication.

I tried to log in via RDP and, again, it DOES NOT PROMPT for 2-Factor.

My question remains unanswered.
