Windows 10: RDP connection has boxes after Windows Update

When I make a remote desktop connection to another Windows 10 PC, it puts coloured boxes on the background of any programmes, including Windows settings.This is an issue with the client PC in that it shows on multiple remote PCs through the same client and does not appear if I connect to the same remote PCs from a different client.I updated Windows 10 today before this started happening.There have been no other changes since this was working properly.I only see KB5000842 on the list of updates, but it won't uninstall.When I tried to rollback the quality and feature updates using Recovery >

:)

 

Is there a way to remove, or stop Windows RDP connections getting automatically saved in the RDP connection box?

Is it possible to share internet connection via remote desktop?

RDP is not capable of Internet sharing, so you can't share Internet using RDP with standard applications. There are many way to share Internet from a Windows box to another one. I suggest you to use VPN. You should do following steps:

1. Run VPN Server on your server with unlimited internet access
   
2. Connect to VPN server from your limited computer
   

 

RDP and Network Connection Drops While on Ethernet

I have the following setup:

2 x windows 10 and 1 X windows 7 computers connected to the same router through cable having 192.168.0.1 as the router gateway.

win7-box: 192.168.0.38
win10-box1: 192.168.0.211
win10-box2: 192.168.0.24

I am connecting from win7-box, which I'm using as the main machine, through RDP to the other 2 win10 machines.

The connection to 192.168.0.211 runs smoothly but when I connect to 192.168.0.24, the connection gets interrupted after 30-60 seconds and I get the "This computer can't connect to the remote computer" error:





While ping 192.168.0.24 -t from 192.168.0.38 was running I got this:





Even if after the The connection has been lost error that corresponds to the Request timed out ping error - the connection seems to be restored (as ping is up again), if I try to RDP again I get the "Destination host unreachable" error.





Now I cannot RDP to 192.168.0.24 anymore until I manually log into this host by physically using its keyboard.

I also did a ping 192.168.0.1 -t on 192.168.0.24 and noticed the General Failure error that corresponds to the Request timed out from the win7-box

enter image description here

I also noticed that I get the General Failure error intermittently, even if don't try a RDP connection on this win10-box2 machine.

What I did:

I tried a Network Reset from the Network&Internet settings:

• Tried switching the cable itself and the cable port on the router
• Tried using a different static ip, other than 192.168.0.24
• Tried using the wireless connection to the same router and noticed that even if do get some isolated Request timed out error when continuously pinging win10-box's ip, no issues are found and RDP connection is stable.

I assume this has to be something wrong in my current win10-box2 configuration as the router seems to be working fine on other devices.

The network configuration on win10-box2 is as follows:





The question would be - what else should I try/check in order to solve this issue?
