    Hi everyone,I'm looking for assistance with configuring a Windows Firewall rule for remote users. My goal is to restrict access to a specific IP address 12.345.67.89 so that only a particular authenticated user on a designated computer can connect to or ping that IP.I've created a custom firewall rule where I specified that only one user should have access to this IP. However, I'm running into an issue: when I check the "Remote User" option, it seems like every computer can access the IP.

    Windows 10 - Remote Desktop

    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?

    - Were you able to upgrade to Windows 10 successfully?

    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.

    Let us know if this helps.

    Thank you.

    Windows 10 Remote Desktop - The connection was denied because the user account is not authorized for remote logon

    Hi Bill,

    I would suggest you to check the suggestions provided in the section "Why can’t I connect using Remote Desktop Connection?" in this article:

    How to use Remote Desktop - Microsoft Support

    Note: Though this article is for Windows 8.1, the steps mentioned are similar in Windows 10.

    Best free AV and firewall

    Can Windows Firewall block outgoing connections yet? If not, it's one step above useless.

    Look into Online Armor for a free firewall.
