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:

• 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
• On Windows 7 desktop, allow incoming remote connections:
  • Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) - Network - Windows 7 Help Forums
• On Windows 7 desktop, find out its IP address:
  • IP Address - Locate and Find for Your Computer - Windows 7 Help Forums
• 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

Okay guys need some help here before going crazy...
I am trying to setup a remote desktop connection and see exactly what the logged on user is looking at with out going through Windows Remote Desktop.

Since its local network I don't have any password or want to setup a password.

Any suggestions are appreciated

 

Connecting Remotely to Windows 10 Pro

I see, you are thinking of Remote Desktop.

If you want something that is easy to configure then you should look at TeamViewer.

With Remote Desktop you must have the following:

• A Windows Pro PC at your workplace.
• A fixed internal IP address at your workplace.
• A domain name for your workplace.
• A tunnel through the router at your workplace.

This is something that requires the skills of a network administrator. With TeamViewer, none of this is needed.
