Hi Feraud,

Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

According to the description of the problem, it seems that the remote desktop connection is blocked on the target computer.

I will certainly help you with this issue.

Here are some methods that you can try in order to solve the problem.

Method 1: Temporarily disable the antivirus from Symantec and check.

Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

Method 2: Change the listening port for remote desktop and check.
