Windows 10: RDP connection to computer with microsoft account

Hello,
I am trying to setup RDP connection between two Windows 10 machines. The PC from which the connection is opened is using a local account while the PC that I'm trying to connect to is using a Microsoft account.

Upon entering the string MicrosoftAccount\microsoftaccountusername@example.com with the correct password no connection is established.

Thank you in advance,
Benny.

force refresh (sync) of Microsoft account password cache using Remote desktop after the password is changed from somewhere else

Suppose Microsoft account password is changed on some other machine or phone via live.com website.

Suppose you connect to the specific computer only via RDP (and this specific machine has, of course, stable connection to the net).

After changing of Microsoft account password, the machine does not sync the password and is accessible via RDP still using the old password.

Only after you login to that specific machine physically, the password you enter should be the new one, it is correctly synced and from that time you must use (when you login via RDP) the new password.

This is strange behaviour, since when your password is stolen, even when changed via live.com, the thief can still login to your machines using RDP using your old stolen password until you physically visit all those machines and login to them using the keyboard.

How to force the Microsoft account password to be synced immediatelly on all machines connected to the network?

 

RDP connection fails from Microsoft account to Local Admin account

Issue:

• Windows 10 Pro desktop cannot connect to another Windows 10 Pro desktop on the same wired network.
  

Details:

• When connection is attempted, an error states the credentials are invalid.
• The credentials entered are the local admin account on the target computer.
  • Computer attempting the connection is logged into the Microsoft account.
• When both computers were running Windows 7 Pro - there were no RDP issues.

Troubleshooting:

• Confirmed credentials are correct and CAPS is turned off.
• Firewall rule for Remote Desktop is enabled and option is enabled in the System Properties.
  • Connection to target computer is successful using a Samsung Galaxy Tab S that is connected to the WLAN.
• Downloaded Remote Desktop app from the Windows Store.
  • Encounter the same "Invalid Credentials" error as the Remote Desktop Connection software.
• Updated firmware for router (Netgear R6300).
• Power cycled both desktops.

Resolution:

• Logging into the Microsoft account on the remote computer resolved the issue.

Conclusion:

• When you're trying to establish a Remote Desktop Connection from a computer that is logged into your Microsoft account to a computer that is logged in to the Local Admin account, the connection will fail stating the credentials are invalid.

 

I think there is a space in Microsoft Account

 

Thank you for your answer, I have tried and it didn't work.

 

So I just created a local account on my client computer. I RDP'd into my server computer. I did not have to put any domain in front of my Microsoft Account username. The local user I created on my client computer is . My Microsoft login is L: firstname.lastname@hotmail.com. When I remoted to the server computer all I entered for username was L: firstname.lastname@hotmail.com with nothing in front of it, and the password associated with the Microsoft Account.

 

I have tried this also, and even have reset my password and still cannot log in.

 

After resetting the password on Microsoft's site i was able to log in.
