Windows 10: Remote Desktop Connection and locally stored Windows Profile on Remote computer

Have 2 laptop computers running windows 10 computer #1 and computer #2. Need to know how to login remotely to computer #2 and gain access to my User ID with my Password. According to the following article My Personal Credential feature is a single credential entry which is locally stored on your computer in your Windows Profile. It is typically used to hold the Windows Credentials for your running sessions because Remote Desktop Manager can’t access them.Is this article stating that you cannot access a User Profile remotely when using Remote Desktop Manager or Microsoft Remote Desktop app? Never had this Issue with Windows 7 Note: I have the correct User ID and Password but have not been able to login as the system rejects the password every time. Is there a work around?

Remote Desktop Connection problems


Have you tried Remote Desktop Connection, to connect from your Windows 10 laptop to your Windows 7 desktop? Try it first, post back and tell how it went.

Some additional help because you mentioned you are a remote newbie *Wink. The windows 7 related tutorials from our sister site the Seven Forums:

1. On Windows 7 desktop, set network location to either Home or Work (I recommend Work):
   • Network Location - Set as Home, Work, or Public Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
2. On Windows 7 desktop, allow incoming remote connections:
   • Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) - Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
3. On Windows 7 desktop, find out its IP address:
   • IP Address - Locate and Find for Your Computer - Windows 7 Help Forums
4. On Windows 10 laptop, start the Remote Desktop application and connect to the Windows 7 desktop using the IP address from step 3 above (see Part Three in the tutorial):
   • RDC - Connect Remotely to your Windows 10 PC - Windows 10 Forums
   • Notice that although the tutorial is written for Windows 10, it also applies to Windows 7

Try the above, post back how it went.

 

remote desktop connection

• What is the operating system of that remote computer? Exact version and edition please, for instance Windows 7 Ultimate or Windows 8.1 Pro.
• Is the remote computer on the same network than the client, the computer you are connecting from? For instance, are both computers on your home network?
• Are the incoming remote connections enabled on the remote computer?
