Windows 10: Trying to Remote Control Server 2008 r2 using Windows 10 Pro

Hi....


I'm struggling to take control of my Windows Server 2008 r2 using Windows 10 Pro.


I can Remote Desktop Connect to the server, but it just seems to log me in as a new session - whereas I would like to take control of the mouse and keyboard of the existing users session (Administrator) and view what I am doing on the screen connected to the server.


I'm not really sure how else to ask this question - I hope one of you guys "gets" it...


Thanx

Mike

Free Windows Server 2008 (and 2008 R2) for students

Microsoft recently added Windows Server 2008 R2 to Dreamspark, so now Server 2008 and Server 2008 R2 are available for free to any student enrolled in a class at any of the universities on their list. Windows Server 2008 R2 can be converted so that it is like Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 can be converted so that it is like Vista. I'm still running XP Pro, but only until I find a free antivirus program for server operating systems *Roll Eyes
