    Windows 10 20H2 remote desktop lock screen has no authentication widgets


    After updating my desktop computer to 20H2, I notice my remote desktop that's how I usually control that computer from my laptop window to it will apply the lock screen after timeout, but remains blur with no authentication widgets. Effectively locking me out since there's nothing for my to type my password to unlock it.


    Only the [Language] [Ease of access] [Power] buttons at the bottom corner can be interacted with.


    Why does the lock screen not show the authentication widgets in remote desktop mode? I have to completely disconnect and reconnect to get around it.

    :)

    How To Create Two Factor Authentication for Remote Desktop

    Hello artmanphoto, are you using the built in remote software that comes with windows 10 ?
    I too use remote software, so can i suggest you change to one of the following.
    Because the remote software that comes with windows is very insecure.

    Anydesk
    To use 2 step authenticator with anydesk go here

    Teamviewer
    To use 2 step authenticator with teamviewer go here


    Splashtop
    To use 2 step authenticator with splashtop go here


    Radmin
    Does not have 2 step authentication as far as i know.
    But it does have IP Filter, very high security.

    All 4 have very high security,
    Anydesk, Splashtop & teamviewer all have so you can add two factor authentication with google authenticator.
    Personally i prefer radmin Windows 10 20H2 remote desktop lock screen has no authentication widgets :)

    * Had to add Anydesk to my suggestion because it's just to good to leave out *

    How To Create Two Factor Authentication for Remote Desktop

    Hello Bill sorry for the late reply.

    You said that you were recently infected with a ransomware virus & that it probably came through your open remote desktop, so yes it's a good idea to change remote software, & skip windows RDP & jump desktop*Smile

    Change the software from Windows RDP & Jump Desktop to Teamviewer.
    Install teamviewer on all computers.
    Set up unattended access on the computers you wish to connect to.
    ( You can do this in the installation process or when teamviewer is installed @ Settings > Security )

    And make a teamviewer account ( if you haven't already done so *Smile )
    This will make it so that you can connect to them through a list ( Once your signed in )
    which is very convenient.
