How to enable remote desktop in Windows Vista.
Easy steps to enabling remote desktop in Microsoft Windows Vista.
If you require access to another computer either over a LAN (Local area network) or the internet, one of the best options would be to utilise the built-in Windows Remote desktop.
The default setting for windows desktop on a fresh Vista installation is set to disabled, however changing this setting will not take you more than a couple of minutes and i am going to show you exactly how to do this.
In order to use remote desktop in Microsoft Windows Vista, you will need to have access to the System Properties Window, which you will need administrative access for. There are a few different ways of accessing this panel through Windows Vista.
Step 1: Open the system Window.
- You can click on the start menu, type “system” in the search and select system from the results available after search (probably 4th option from the top) or you can…
- Right click on the computer icon and select properties from the drop down.
Step 2: Open remote settingsÂ
Click on remote settings on the left hand menu of this system window.
Step 3: Select the option and best applies to your set up
For connections from a Windows XP/2000 you must activate the “Allows connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop.” option.
For connections from a Windows Vista you must activate the “Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication” which is generally more secure than the other option.
Note: This will not work for Home editions of Windows Vista.
