Windows 10: Windows 10 Remote Assistance Tool shows Black screen on my end.

Hi!


I am having an issue with the Windows Remote Assistance Tool on Windows 10. These are the steps I follow:


1) I receive an invitation file from the other user.

2) I open it and am prompted to enter a password.

3) The other user tells me the password, I enter it and it "Attempts to Connect"

4) The other user is prompted to give me access to their computer.

5) After they hit yes, It shows connected but on my end I can only see the Black Screen.


On my end I only see a black screen, where as the other user is able to see me moving their mouse pointer all around the screen and interacting with icons on their desktop. (after requesting control, ofcourse).


So I don't understand as to why I can't see anything on my end where as they can see me clicking on stuff etc.


Please help me out, as this is necessary for me in my work environment as I have to remote into many users and help them solve their issues.

:)

Remote Assistance

Hi Darlene,

We appreciate you for being a part of Windows 10.

Before proceeding, we need more information to help you better.

• 
  Are the computers connected to domain?
  
• 
  Which edition of Windows 10 is installed in your computer?
  

Reference: Meanwhile you may follow the suggestions in the below article and check if it helps. With Remote Desktop Connection, you can sit at a PC and connect to another PC in a different location (the remote
PC).

Note: You may open the Start menu and click on search bar to access search bar. Except the search bar option, everything will work in Windows 10 as suggested in the above article. You may not access some of
the computers if they are connected to domain. If you can see the sign-in screen of the remote PC but you can't sign in, you might not have been added to the Remote Desktop Users Group or to any group with administrator rights on the remote
PC. Ask your system admin to do this for you.

If the computers are connected to domain, you may post your query in Microsoft TechNet forum. We have a dedicated team with advanced tools and permissions to help you with this type of issues. I suggest you to post the same
query in Microsoft TechNet forum for further assistance with this issue.
