There are plenty of reasons for failing to connect to a remote desktop – expired certificates, blocked firewalls, issues on the client – the list goes on. Here we’ll look at how to fix one common cause of insufficient permissions. Please refer to other sections in this article for more fixes.
To assign permissions to users to access the remote desktop from the remote server, do the following:
1. Enter GPEdit.msc command in the Windows run prompt.
- Access the Server Manager.
- From the left-hand side, select “Local Server.”
- The current state of your system will be detected.
- If the Remote Desktop is “Disabled” click on “Disabled” to open the “System Properties” window.
- Select “Allow remote connections to this Computer” from “System Properties.”
- You’ll receive a warning message, click “OK” to proceed.
- Click on “Select Users.” to give users or groups permission to connect via remote desktop.
- Select “OK”.
- From Server Manager, the remote desktop status may still show as “Disabled”, click the refresh button to update to “Enabled.”
- Ensure your wireless connection is available by checking the status.
- From your wireless router settings, disable the firewall and turn it off for the client and remote computers. Then from Windows server:
- “Network discovery”
- “Remote desktop”
- ‘Remote service management”
- “Routing and remote access”
- “Windows remote management.”
- If you receive “The remote PC can’t be found” error message then ensure you have entered the correct PC name for the remote PC, or you try entering its IP address.
- If you receive “There’s a problem with the network” error message, make sure your network adapter is working and try:
