Remote Desktop Client 6.1 Cannot Connect To Remote Computer
Aug 30, 2011
We have several remote systems that can all connect fine. I am having an issue with one box. It is a windows 7 home premium machine with netgear wireless nic. When I open mstsc to connect to a remote machine I put in the ip address and click on connect.I receive an immediate failure with the text "This computer can't connect to the remote computer. Try connecting again...blah blah"I have a server 2008 r2 with Network level authentication enabled. I have 8 other systems that are hardwired, at different geographic locations and all connect fine. I have not made any changes on the server side since this problem seems to be local to this client only. On the client I have made the following changes/observations. I have disabled the firewall, cleared the remote desktop cache, remove the MRU entries from the registry, verified that port 3389 is open via telnet. I have been bashing my head for days trying to figure out why this one box is not working. The problem occurs for every user on the box including the admin.I don't receive the box that prompts for warning if there is a server authentication issue but I think that is because I selected ignore at some point and said yes to continue. I'm not sure where that cache resides to delete that selection.

I know there have been a number of posts on this subject but I have been unable to find a solution. I have 2 Windows 7 machines, both running SP1.
My HP Pavilion is running 64-bit and my Dell Latiude E6400 is running 32-bit. I can successfully RDP from my Dell and even my Apple iPad (via an RDP client) into my HP Pavilion. However, the problem is that when I try to RDP from my Pavilion into my Dell I get connected but all I see is a BLACK from the Dell machine. The only thing i can see is the Status bar at teh top telling me that i am connected. A few moments later I get a popup message telling me that the machines have failed to communicate.
I have confirmed that RDP settings are identical on the Pavilion and Dell. I have even downgraded the Dell NVIDIA graphics driver to an older version based on the recommended version on the Dell support web site.

I am using Windows 7 Pro 64bit, trying to use Windows remote desktop to connect to another PC in the LAN and install software. Right click on the .exe and choose run as admin. As soon as I do that I get a black screen with 2 white bars in the upper left hand corner(looks like a pause button). The user who's pc I am connected to sees the log inbox for the admin creds, how ever I can not get to it. How can I make that screen stop popping up?

I am trying to connect to another Windows 7 machine on the same router, but it will not connect. I have remote desktop enabled and checked under the computer settings, but when I right click the computer in the network & sharing center and try to connect, it won't work. I also tried manually entering the computer's network address but it failed. Both machines are Windows 7.

Microsoft is gearing up to release a tool that will permit users of Windows Vista and Windows XP computers to connect to Windows 7 machines, and to take advantage of features that only the latest version of the Windows client brings to the table. Bridging Vista and XP with Windows 7 will be possible through the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) 7.0 client.
The Redmond-based company has been cooking the client for some time now, and it appears that the baking time is almost over. There’s still no definitive delivery deadline, but with Windows 7 general availability now almost a month away, Remote Desktop Connection 7.0 GA is bound to follow.

I'm using Win7 Professional at home and winxp at my office. I can connect fine from home to office but can't connect from my office to home. I have gone through all of the google searchs and all of the posts on this forum without any luck. I have checked that my modem has port 3389 forwarded. I have confirmed that it's listening on that port. I have checked all the firewall settings, and even turned off the firewall and still can't connect.

We have 2 printers (one color, one b/w) in our office and 4 local computers.
The printers are connected by USB to one of the computers (a PC running XP) and they are shared on the local network. All of the 4 local computers can print to either printer with no problem.
The problem is that when I use remote desktop connection from one of the PCs (the only one that has Windows 7) I can only print to 1 of the 2 printers (the color).
When I use remote desktop connection from any of the other 3 computers then I have no problem printing to either printer.
I've tried speaking to the IT guys who run our offsite server and they have been no help (despite being expensive) so I'm trying to troubleshoot as much stuff on my end as possible to avoid spending a crazy amount on them. what I can check, or what other information I can provide to make diagnosing this problem easier?

Is there a way to unattended remote connect to a desktop, using existing MS tools, and share the desktop, without having to wait on the other user to give me a thumbs up?I work on a remote PC, and need the user there to be able to view the desktop while I work on it. However I also need them to also not have to directly give me access each time, such as the case with the help me request application (Windows Remote Assistance normal setup)

is it true the only Professional and Ultimate versions of Windows 7 can accept Remote Desktop Connection requests? I read on a post from 2009 that "any version of Windows 7 can act as a Remote Desktop client, but only Ultimate and Profession can host a Remote Desktop."I'm not sure I completely understand that - I do understand what host and client mean. However,d despite lots of different setting changes, I can't connect to this Windows machine using Remote Desktop.

I'm encountering a very frustrating problem connecting to my office PC (which is Windows 7 Professional). No matter what client I use (Windows 7 built in remote desktop from a W7HP machine, Remote Desktop Client on Android, etc.) when I log on to the host machine it re-logs me on. Basically it seems to kill the previous log on session, logs it off, and then logs me in anew. This is really annoying. It closes all open apps and makes me reopen them. It takes much longer than a usual connection. I can't seem to find any reason for why this might happen, the only difference between this and the thousands of connections I've made over the years using RDP is that this is being done over our work VPN (A SonicWall VPN client). I don't see why that would make any difference but it's the only variable.

I have setup Remote Desktop on two different Windows 7 computers and I am unable to connect to them. I have followed several examples, which are the same on setting this up, but still unable to connect. The examples show trying to connect using the computer name and user name. If you are connecting say from your office computer to your home computer, do you not have to enter the IP address somewhere or does it just connect via the computer name?
I have yet to find anywhere to enter an IP address or connect any way beside just using the computer name. I am setting this up to connect Windows 7 to Windows 7.

I have a desktop computer running Windows 7 and a thin client (Wyse V90L) running Win XP Embedded. I am using Remote Desktop to log into my desktop computer running Windows 7. The problem is that despite having set up Remote Desktop on the client to 'Play on this Computer', no audio plays. When I click on the volume control, there is no slider and instead the message 'no audio device is installed' is displayed. If I choose to leave sound at my desktop, then it functions as expected.

Very recently I started having a problem with the remote desktop where it says the following message:
"Your computer could not connect to another console session on the remote computer because you already have a console session in progress."
What I am trying to do is to access my Vista Ultimate computer using my Windows 7 Ultimate computer, and have been doing so this way for more than a year.All of a sudden I start getting the message that I have quoted. I do not know why it started doing that.As well, going in the Users tab of task manager you can see there that I am logged in as a console user.

I recently got my remote desktop working in my home LAN, but I can ONLY connect to to my machine via its IP address. It refuses to connect through the actual computer-name as I would prefer to.
I'm assuming here that there is a possible issue with the IP is tied to the computer-name, aka some type of DNS issue. Keep in mind I am not trying to access my computer "globally" I am just trying to connect to via its computer name when I am at home and connected to my home LAN.

I am trying to configure Remote Desktop Access to work over the internet. Remote Desktop Access works on my local network.
Both of my computers are on Windows 7 Professionnal. My router is a Belkin F9K1002.
I followed the official widows tutorial. I forwarded the necessary port on my router (I switched from port 3389 to 50000, in case 3389 was blocked by my isp).
Every time I try to connect I get
"Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:
1)Remote access to the server is not enabled
2)The remote computer is turned off
3)The remote computer is not available on the network Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled."

I have a Win 7 Home Premium box along with 4 WinXP boxes in a simple network. My Win 7 box can Remote Desktop to any of the WinXP boxes, and be used to "drive" them, no problem.I added a new machine yesterday that came with Win 7 Home PremiumAfter searching through other threads, I found it was stated that if I upgrade the new box to Win 7 Pro or Ultimate, I can then use my original Win 7 Home Prm to connect to, and "drive" the new Win 7 Ult. box.I successfully upgraded the new box, it's now confirmed to be running Win 7 Ultimate. I have also disabled the firewall, and checked the Remote Box Settings:Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop (less secure).However, the Home box cannot connect to the Ultimate box. It times out with the following error:Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:1) Remote access to the server is not enabled2) The remote computer is turned off3) The remote computer is not available on the network.

On every computer in my house, if I want to stream something from my server, I can go to start>run and just type \gomuhzserver, which is the computer name of the server, and stream whatever I want. But when I do it on this computer, I get an error messege: "Windows cannot access \gomuhzserver and gives me the error code 0x80070035 The network path was not found. Which is BULLSHIT. Because I have another laptop right here, and I'm connecting to it no problem. The other weird thing is this problem randomly started on this computer. Before that it worked just fine. Remote desktop works fine on this computer when I want to connect to the server, just not the \gomuhzserver thing.

I have 3 computers with Windows 7 Pro.
I can use remote control between 2 of them, but I can not connect from any of those two to the third one. All the services needed for remote control are running, and I have tried several tutorials on how to set up remote control...and nothing. Again, only on third computer remote control does not work. On that computer I have 2 accounts: one standard and one admin. I have put admin account under "Select users" and did not help. Tried with enabled Administrator account and nothing. Below you will see the picture which describes the problem. I can not select who can connect.

Searched the internet, forums and tried everything even removing IDT.And getting a major head ache out of this. x64 notebooks.But on 1 single notebook the RDP does not work when connecting through a VPN.(Sony Vaio S-series factory customized i7, 8GB)The office has a Draytek VPN with an 2003 AD domain.Other notebooks do not have the problem. Remote desktop locally works Remote desktop via branche office works (through hardware based vpn tunnels) MS VPN connects, network is browsable MS VPN -> RDP shows: [Configuring remote session] But after a while connection is denied MS VPN -> Fileshares - functional MS VPN -> Webserver, FTP server - functional Maybe one of you guys have a hunch why this specific situation doesn't work?
