  1. Remote Desktops Snap-in


    Hi,
    I am a network admin who just upgraded his workstation from Windows 7 to 10. I had a Remote Desktops MMC which had all my servers on it in one place which was one of my main tools. Since I upgraded to Windows 10, when I launch that tool, The MMC says "MMC could not create the snap-in". When I go to add the snap in, there isn't one there. Can someone help me fix/find/repair/replace this utterly invaluable tool? Gotta love MS and their "improvements" that break stuff.
    Thanks

    :)

  2. remote desktop

    Hello,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    Please help me with the below details to understand your issue in a better way:



    1. Are you using the Microsoft remote desktop app?


    If you are using the Microsoft remote desktop app downloaded from
    Microsoft store then, I suggest you to follow the steps to
    fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store
    .



    If the issue still persists with the Microsoft remote desktop app, then you can contact the support team by going to the

    link
    and scrolling down to the bottom and clicking on
    Microsoft remote desktop support under the Publisher info.



    However, if you are using the Remote desktop connection, which comes pre-installed with Windows 10, then I suggest you to please post your question in the
    TechNet forum.



    Hope it helps.
