Hi,

We will surely assist you with the issue you are facing with Windows 10.

Remote Desktop Win 10 Pro through 2012 Essential Gateway

I recently upgraded my laptop and desktop to Win 10 Pro. Previously, I was using Win 7 on each computer. Before the upgrade, I was able to use the traditional Remote Desktop Connection software to connect to my work PC via my 2012 Essential server.

Since I've upgraded, I cannot connect to the work PC remotely using the built-in Win 10 RDC software. I can connect using my Android phone and using Remote Desktop Preview. As such, I know that the gateway and office computer are working.

FYI, I can establish Win 10 Pro to Win 10 Pro and Win 10 Pro to Win 2012 Essential remote desktop sessions using the built-in RDC software inside of my office network.

Why can't I connect through the gateway using the traditional, built-in Remote Desktop software?

 

Remote Desktop set up query

Hello Simmons,

I understand that you want to set up the remote connections between the two Windows 10 Home edition computers. We will help you.

With Remote Desktop Connection, you can sit at a PC and connect to another PC in a different location (the remote PC). For example, you can sit at your home PC and connect to your work PC, and use all of your apps, files, and network resources as if you
were sitting right in front of your work PC.

Note: for all these option to work, you must need Windows 10 Pro edition as the remote connections wont work in Windows 10 Home editions.

You may have to upgrade the Windows 10 Home edition to Windows 10 Pro edition to avail these remote connection options.

I also suggest you to download and install Remote Desktop App
from Windows Store.

You can use Remote Desktop app for connecting to a remote PC and your work resources from almost anywhere. Experience rich interactivity with RemoteFX in a Remote Desktop client designed to help you get your work done wherever you are.
