Windows 10 - Remote Desktop

Hi,

We will surely assist you with the issue you are facing with Windows 10.
- Which version of Windows 10 Operating System are you using?

- Were you able to upgrade to Windows 10 successfully?

I suggest you to refer the below steps and see if this helps.

• 
  Enable remote desktop in settings
  
  • Control Panel\System and Security\System, Click "Remote Settings" on the left side
• 
  Verify my port forwarding settings were properly forwarding to my computers local IP address
  
  • run "cmd.exe" and then type "ipconfig". Find your IP from that list

[*]

• Make sure your firewall settings are open
• Go to "Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall\Allowed apps"

• On the left, click "Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall"
• Click "Change Settings"
• Find "Remote Desktop" in the list and make sure both "Private" and "Public" is checked.

Let us know if this helps.

Thank you.

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.
