• Connection remote desktop has appeared in my Start menu, but I don't use it, does that mean someone else has had access?

  I sat down at my computer today (I'm the only person who uses it) and pulled the top of the start menu. There were four programs listed there that I have not used for several months:

  Remote Desktop connection
  Dreamweaver MX
  Freehand MX
  MS Office Picture Manager

  In my opinion, that means that someone had access to my system.

  Can I change my remote desktop connection to protect against this, or is a more complete analysis of my machine required?

  The remote desktop connection settings include providing everyone the read and Read & Execute access. If I remove these options that will make me safer? Skype uses this access (this is the only thing that could, I think I use)?

  I went to system properties and remote access disabled.

• Remote Desktop has stopped working

  All of a sudden I can't RD my server (under Win 7 Pro).
  I can access all the drives shared without problem but Remote Desktop behaves as if she's not here.
  The server presents itself under the management of network and homegroup.
  I looked and remote desktop has been enabled on the System/Remote Server settings dialog box.
  When I delete the credentials and try to connect - remote desktop is not even asking me my PW.

  As the saying goes - It was working fine a few days ago and I wouldn't change a thing.

  My dv4-2160us has a blank screen, even if it's on. What could be the problem

  Hello

  It would certainly look like you need to replace the screen.  The best advice I could do would be to take it to a local computer repair shop and get an estimate of the cost of replacement.

• I need to access a shared resource by a Linux via NFS server from a Windows XP client.

  I need to access a shared resource by a Linux server via nfs from a Windows XP client.

  I suggested to install "Windows Services for UNIX Version 3.5" and I downloaded it, but:

  • I see only an English (or maybe Japaneese) version: can be used on my Windows XP withoyut Italian language conflicts?
  • I tried the ti montage, but I find a lot of features, I don't need
  • When installing asked me questions that I can't answer

  Is there a simpler way to let a windows XP client to connect to an nfs share?

  If "Windows Services for UNIX Version 3.5" are the right solution, where can I find the documentation to install it in the simplest?

• Through router remote desktop connection gets login screen, but the administrator is the only option (windows 7 pro)

  I have a new windows 7 pro system which has been configured to host a remote desktop connection.  There are 1 user account (active admin), the port number was changed from 3389 and I think that the firewall is disabled (it's Norton Internet Security and I tried to completely disable the firewall).

  When I established a remote connection from another computer on the same subnet, the client asks for login/password and the connection ends and goes directly to the screen of the user.

  This subnet has an internet connection via a firewall or router.  It has been configured to redirect incoming connections for the custom to the host port number.

  When I establish a remote connection from outside through the firewall I am invited to login/password, but the Welcome screen appears and the only options are administrator and other users.  Administrator is blocked for the account restrictions and using other users to type the login and the password does not work - it still fails on bad login/password.

  I've seen this problem described in other forums, but have not seen a solution - anyone got one?

  Thank you

• Connection remote desktop has stopped working

  I'm used to be able to connect via the desktop remotely from my computer Windows 7 on my Windows XP computer. Both machines have been recently updated (Windows updates) and now remote desktop doesn't work anymore.

  After that the two machines reboot their updates, I tried to connect to the Windows XP computer.  I got a dialog box on my Windows 7 machine (which was never released before) titled "Windows security" and asks me to enter my credentials. It shows my username (which is displayed correctly), and give me the ability to use another account.  There is also a small box downstairs that allows him to "remember my credentials".  As I said, I've never seen this front window.
  When I put my password it comes up with another dialog box that reads 'fixing remote connection', where he stops, then fails stating that "the connection attempt has failed."
  I checked on the remote computer (XP), that he will accept Remote Desktop connections.  I checked my username and password I use are correct.
  I went back to my machine windows 7 and tried to use remote desktop.  This time, I never had the Windows 7 dialog box (one titled "Windows security") it displays the Windows XP login screen (which is what it normally does).  I was able to connect properly.
  Now, today, I tried to use the desktop remotely again, but again got this dialog "Windows security" Windows 7 once again and the same problem everywhere.  I can't connect to the XP machine more.
  Any idea what's going on?

• Remote Desktop has stopped working suddenly Premium Ultimate

  I used to be able to remote desktop to my laptop with Vista Home Premium on my desktop with Vista Ultimate. All of a sudden, it stopped working (March 09). I tried many steps of troubleshooting without success and I searched and searched online with no resolution. Help! I examined even the laptop to ultimate upgrade, but I seriously doubt that would correct the problem, since I should be able to remote desktop ON the ultimate machine (not in it, of course) and did so successfully for over a year... so far. I don't know what changed between yesterday and today, with the exception of Windows updates. No other software or hardware has been installed. The laptop has wireless and it works very well - I can access the Internet and the network with no problems at all.

  Steps, I have taken/other info: (not necessarily in order - just write them as they come to me)
  1) reset all the workstations and the router (I have a 3rd computer which has XP also).
  (2) checked to make sure port 3389 is open on my router 2 and in the firewall (McAfee). Within McAfee, do ensure that the remote desktop program and service were allowed, both directions and on all the workstations. Also controlled canyouseeme.org to ensure that port 3389 is indeed open and he succeeded.
  (3) connection I tried with the firewall disabled on two workstations and always without success.
  (4) Made sure that on the host, the remote settings have been enabled and all users can connect, using any version of Windows. Also tried unchecking, reset and rechecked.
  (5) the user accounts on all workstations are directors.
  (6) the fact that the Terminal Server service has been started on the host. Tried them stopping and restarting.
  (7) tried ping - success in all directions by the two IP address and computer name.
  (8) network resources are available in all directions - I can see and access files shared all around.
  (9) installed all the Windows updates available. Reloaded later.
  (10) remote desktop from the laptop to the machine off XP is successful. Ultimate machine to XP is successful. From XP to ultimate is successful. The only one who does not work (and it's an important) is from the laptop to the machine by excellence. Argh!
  (11) even tried to restore the laptop provided the factory (tested - didn't work) and then through all Windows updates (test I went - never able to operate).
  (12) fact that Windows Firewall has been disabled on all workstations.
  (13) fact that network discovery, file sharing and public folder sharing is turned on.
  (14) RDP I tried with the name of the computer with the IP address.
  What Miss me? The only thing I can think is that somehow one of Windows Update caused this problem, but my research online for someone else knows this at the same time me are coming short. So I'm completely confused and frustrated!
  Thanks for reading my post, and I'd appreciate any help.
  Sally

  I didn't need to post on the technet forum, because I have solved the problem. I decided to bite the bullet and just give my idea to try and hope for the best (created a first system restore point). The solution was so freakin ' easy... wonder why I couldn't find all the details on how to do...?

  In any case; On the ultimate box (the one I am trying to remote desktop in), I opened the management console (mmc.exe) and add the Certificates snap, for the computer account, computer local. Double click on certificates, double click on the desktop folder remotely, double click on the Certificates folder and highlighted the certificate (there was only one, with the name of the computer as the title) and removed (first of all, I copied and put it in another folder, just in case where).

  This solves completely the whole issue and workaround is no longer necessary.

  I hope this helps someone else.

  I'm access to about 20 different servers - mostly Win/2003.  On two of them. After working for a while; the screen turns off (gray); the task bar (sort of) will appear at the top of the screen. None of the keys work correctly; I can sometimes part of the screen of Windows Explorer, but it has a white background;  I can only 'X' to.  If I reconnect, I see the same garbage.  I have a system administrator to disconnect the session.  Other servers have absolutely no problem.  We can check?

  Hello

  1st thing to try is a restoration of the system in safe mode

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

• Remote Desktop for Windows 7 Professional hangs at welcome screen

  Setup: 2 machines on a private network. Trying to remote desktop of Windows Vista Edition full of Windows 7 Professional.

  The host machine is running Windows 7 Professional. This Windows 7 machine has 1 single user account which is an Admin that I use to log on (let's say it's 'Joe').

  I turned on the remote desktop via computer > properties > remote adjustment > "allow connection of computers running any version of office (less safe) remotely. Then, to be sure my account has access, clicked "select users...". "and above the"Add..." "and 'Remove' buttons, he bed 'Joe already has access."
  The client machine that I use remotely to the Windows 7 machine runs Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (let's call it "Joe-notebook").
  When I run Remote Desktop Connection program, I tried using the "Joe-Win7" computer name and address local static ip that I assigned to the Windows 7 PC 192.168.1.15.  When prompted I provide the username of the account Admin ("Joe") and the password. At this point, the remote desktop connection goes full screen and I can see that it starts to log on to the Windows 7 computer. A few seconds, the blue spindle stops, and a few seconds later, I get the error message "your Remote Desktop session has ended." The connections to the remote computer was lost, possibly due to network connection problems. Try to connect to the remote computer again... etc"
  I tried:
  1. Disable all the non Microsoft Win 7 PC via msconfig services.
  2. Rename the computer Win 7 PC name.
  3. Assign a static ip address to the Win 7 to use the ip address.
  4. Made sure that RDP was on the list of exceptions to firewall on PC Win 7.
  Things to note:
  • I am able to the RDP of the Win 7 PC to PC Vista Ultimate on my home network.
  • On the network, I have a Windows XP computer that is also unable to RDP to Windows 7 PCs.
  • I recently installed Windows 7 on this PC and RDP has not worked yet, so this isn't a problem 'suddenly '.
  Thank you for your help,
  Andrew
  P.S., so far, I am very impressed with Windows 7. Keep up the good work.

  I found the problem with my inability to RDP to my Windows 7 computer.

  On my desktop Windows 7 Pro, I use a card (Rosewill RNX-G300EX) wireless network. When I installed the drivers for this card, she also installed software GUI of own Rosewill (Ralink Wireless Utility) to connect to wireless networks. This setting overrides Windows 7 is built in the GUI to connect to wireless networks.

  On a wild guess, I uninstalled the drivers and software for my wireless card and then reinstalled the drivers only and used Windows 7 built in networking and it works now.

  I hope this helps.
