Windows 10: How to get Chrome Remote Desktop to work 24/7?

I can get it working while I'm home, but that defeats the purpose. As soon as my home computer goes on Standby, then Remote Desktop says my home computer is offline.

I had the same problem with Teamviewer.

 

Remote Desktop Options

I have Windows 7 machine which is on 24/7 which I would like to remote into with security and ease kept in mind. What are your suggestions? Is RDP good enough?

 

Remote Desktop Connection problems


Have you tried Remote Desktop Connection, to connect from your Windows 10 laptop to your Windows 7 desktop? Try it first, post back and tell how it went.

Some additional help because you mentioned you are a remote newbie *Wink. The windows 7 related tutorials from our sister site the Seven Forums:

• On Windows 7 desktop, set network location to either Home or Work (I recommend Work):
  • Network Location - Set as Home, Work, or Public Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
• On Windows 7 desktop, allow incoming remote connections:
  • Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) - Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
• On Windows 7 desktop, find out its IP address:
  • IP Address - Locate and Find for Your Computer - Windows 7 Help Forums
• On Windows 10 laptop, start the Remote Desktop application and connect to the Windows 7 desktop using the IP address from step 3 above (see Part Three in the tutorial):
  • RDC - Connect Remotely to your Windows 10 PC - Windows 10 Forums
  • Notice that although the tutorial is written for Windows 10, it also applies to Windows 7

Try the above, post back how it went.
