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.

Remote Mapped Drive

So instead of accessing a remote pc. Is it possible to access a remote mapped drive of that pc?

so instead of signing on remote desktop, all is needed is the mapped drive, because of the accounting software file share on it.
