    I want to use Remote Desktop to access my other laptop. So, which computer needs to have Windows 10 Pro Upgrade to do this?

    I want to be able to remotely access my kids computer Windows 10 Home edition from mine also Windows 10 Home edition. I know I need to upgrade to Windows 10 Pro to sue Remote Access and that will cost $99. My question is, do I need to spend $99 on BOTH laptops to be able to access my kid's computer rermotely? or can I just upgrade one of them to be able to do that? It doesn't make sense that I should havwe to buy it twice.

    Thank you!

    :)

    Can't access remote laptop desktop

    I have a big tower computer with an ASUS mobo, and an ASUS U50f laptop, both machines running Win 10 Creators Pro, and successfully private-networked together wirelessly via a Linksys E1200 modem. I can run remote desktop on the laptop to access & use the tower, but not access the laptop via remote desktop from the tower, even though its Explorer shows the files & folders on the laptop, so networking is going between them. I think I have all the remote desktop settings right on both machines. There seems to be something obscure mis-set on the laptop that's blocking remote desktop from the tower. I see the right rules and turn-ons for address 3386 in the laptop's firewall. Suggestions? Thanks!

  3. Can not access a laptop via Remote Desktop Connectioin

    My laptop is not accessible via Remote Desktop connection while returning error on as "Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons: 1) Remote Access to the server is not enabled, 2) The remote computer is turned off, 3) The
    Remote computer is not available on the network"

    The system specs: Asus X540S with Intel 4Core 3710, Windows 10 Pro (upgraded from pre-installed Win 10 Home)

    Accessing the PC remotely over the internet with it's IP address.

    Measures already taken:

    • Re-installation of upgraded Win 10 Pro - in clean mode
    • Ensured: RDC correct settings, firewall exception / disabling the firewall entirely, registry settings, Terminal Service is running
    • Tried: Changing Internet Service provider (LAN, Airtel Dongle, etc.) on host and client PC with different combination
    • Full scan with Norton security, without finding of any threat
    • Testing on new Windows User profile

    Request to please help.
