    Windows 10, Remote Control: Failed to initialise the socket system


    Hi Microsoft Support Team,Device: Acer Predator PH315-53Windows 10 HomeGood day! I am writing this to ask for your help. I was forced to update Windows after rebooting my laptop today, and in the middle of the Windows update, I got stuck in the "Windows getting ready Don't turn off your computer" loop for ages, I had to turn off my computer. Now the problem occurs, I got stucked again in the Windows Automatic Repair loop, and now I was forced to System Restore to fix the problem. After restoring, some error popped up "Failed to initialise the socket system".I tried these commands in CMD and no

    Hi,

    We will surely assist you with the issue you are facing with Windows 10.
    - Which version of Windows 10 Operating System are you using?

    I suggest you to refer the below steps and see if this helps.


    • Enable remote desktop in settings
      • Control Panel\System and Security\System, Click "Remote Settings" on the left side

    • Verify my port forwarding settings were properly forwarding to my computers local IP address
      • run "cmd.exe" and then type "ipconfig". Find your IP from that list
    [*]
    • Make sure your firewall settings are open
    • Go to "Control Panel\System and Security\Windows Firewall\Allowed apps"
    • On the left, click "Allow an app or feature through Windows Firewall"
    • Click "Change Settings"
    • Find "Remote Desktop" in the list and make sure both "Private" and "Public" is checked.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  4. Windows 10, Remote Control: Failed to initialise the socket system

    Error: "The remote procedure call failed" while trying to access Windows Store on Windows 10

    Hi Vishnu,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being a part of Windows 10.

    I understand the inconvenience you are facing in accessing Windows Store apps and installing Windows Updates on your device.

    We appreciate your effort and time spent in resolving the issue.

    As you receive an error: The remote procedure call failed, I suggest you to check the status of Remote Procedure Call locator service.

    Step 1: Make sure the Remote Procedure Call status is Started and set to Automatic. RPC Locator should be set to Manual. Follow the below steps for the same:

    • Press Windows + R keys from the keyboard to open
      Run command.
    • Type services.msc in the search box and press
      Enter
      .
    • Search for the Remote Procedure Call locator service
    • Make sure the Start-up type is Manual.
    Steps to set the services to Automatic

    • Right click on the service
    • If the service is stopped then Start the service
    • Select Properties
    • And in the Start-up type, select Manual.

    Step 2: I suggest you to run Windows Update troubleshooter as it resolves
    problems that prevents you from updating windows.

    Steps:


    • Press Windows + X, click on
      Control Panel
      , select Category and then select
      Large or Small icons
      .
    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on View all
      in the left pane.
    • Select Windows Update
    • Click on Advanced, check mark
      Apply repairs automatically, and then click on Run as Administrator.
    • Follow the onscreen instructions

    Hope it helps. Get back to us with an updated status of this issue for further assistance.
