Windows 10: remote desktop access for administrator accounts

Bonjour,As a junior system administrator, I would like to ask:Is is safe to allow RDP access from domain accounts with admin rights to servers and computers?If no, what would be the best practice if my daily tasks require admin rights on remote computers?merci beaucoup!

Office 365 Account for Remote Desktop Access

I am trying to login to my Windows 10 computer using Microsoft's Remote Desktop client (RDP). I am able to login using a local account, but, I am not able to login using my O365 business account. I have checked the remote access settings, and my O365 account
is listed as being able to login remotely. What am I missing?

 

Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


Hello,
Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

 

Trying to access previously made remote desktop account.

Hi Susan,

I will surely help you.

To understand the issue better, I would need more information from your end.

• Are you facing issues while trying to User Account or Remote Desktop session?
• Do you get any error messages? If yes, what is the exact error message?

If you are facing issues with connecting to Remote Desktop, I suggest you to post the query in TechNet Forums. Because issues related to Remote Desktop are supported in that Forum.

Technet forums - Windows 10 Virtualization

Hope this information helps.

Thank you.
