Windows 10: your computer can't connect to the remote computer because the remote desktop gateway...

Hi,


I am getting the error above when trying to RDP to one of our servers.


The RDP works for 2 other PCs in my office. But my PC gives this error.

Your computer can't connect to the remote computer because the remote desktop gateway server is temporarily unavailable...


It does get past the Gateway and it does ask for the Windows Password. But it then hangs for 5 seconds and returns the above error.


All PCs are running Windows 10.

All PCs using identical RDP connection, credential and Gateway settings.


I tried this solution https://www.petenetlive.com/KB/Article/0001132

Adding 32 bit DWORD value called RDGClientTransport = 1

to HKCU > SOFTWARE >Microsoft > Terminal Services Client

But it did not work. Although I may try rebooting my PC in a minute to see if that helps but I doubt it.


I feel like there is some dodgy credential or Cached Windows credential on my PC???

I did find a Windows Credential that mapped to the server I was trying to connect to. So I deleted it but that did not help.

Actually before this server did not have a Gateway and it was working for me.

Anyway that is probably just a red herring.


What I do know:

* Connection works for other PCs in my office

* All same RDP Settings

* I can ping the gateway and it resolves to the correct IP

* So probably not server side settings

* And definitely NOT Remote Desktop Connection settings


Basically as far as I know everything is correct on my PC.


Please help.

:)

 

Remote Desktop - Remote Computer is Sleeping

Got a question that I could answer if I was at the office to try it... Trying to connect remotely to an HP desktop at work.

If the HP is in sleep mode, I can't remote into it. Here's the scenario: Couldn't remote into the HP... Called a co-worker he noticed is was in power saving mode & moved the mouse, it woke up. Then I was able to remote in.

Would "Wake on Lan" in BIOS allow me to wake up the computer through a remote desktop login request? Are there other settings?

EDIT: Both PC's on XP Pro 32

 

Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer

We suggest that you disable any security program on your computer and check if it resolves the issue.

NOTE: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you shouldn't disable your antivirus software. If you have to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as
soon as you're done. If you're connected to the Internet or a network while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Then follow the steps below to ensure remote desktop is enabled:

• Click Start.
• Click on File Explorer.
• Right-click This PC.
• Select Properties.
• Click Remote settings in the upper left hand corner.
• Ensure the option Allow remote connection to this computer and
  Allow Remote Assistance connection to this computer is selected.
• Click Apply and OK.
• Reboot the PC for the changes to take effect.

Let us know the result.
