  1. Is remote desktop the best option?


    So, I have a PC desktop at home which is my main computer and a 2019 macbook pro 15, which I use for work and travel. I have been spending more and more time outside the house and unable to use my main computer. Is remote desktop the best way to use my computer while I am away? Is Apache Guacamole similar?

    I just want to be able to fully use the computer (download, install programs, run programs etc). Also, is possibleto be able to lock the computer and unlock on demand (live with a roommate).

    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?

  3. remote desktop

    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.
