Just a small reminder for myself (and you):
If you ever need to enable RDP (mstsc) on a Windows 10 machine, and you can’t get to the System control panel item, use Powershell to enable RDP:
# Enable Remote Desktop (Get-WmiObject Win32_TerminalServiceSetting -Namespace root\cimv2\TerminalServices).SetAllowTsConnections(1,1) | Out-Null (Get-WmiObject -Class "Win32_TSGeneralSetting" -Namespace root\cimv2\TerminalServices -Filter "TerminalName='RDP-tcp'").SetUserAuthenticationRequired(0) | Out-Null Get-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Remote Desktop*" | Set-NetFirewallRule -enabled true
Execute aboves cmdlets as Administrator in Powershell, and RDP should work.
To test the connection, open Powershell on another machine, and run:
Test-NetConnection 10.10.1.105 -CommonTCPPort rdp
Result should be as follows:
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> Test-NetConnection 10.10.1.105 -CommonTCPPort rdp ComputerName : 10.10.1.105 RemoteAddress : 10.10.1.105 RemotePort : 3389 InterfaceAlias : Ethernet SourceAddress : 10.10.1.247 TcpTestSucceeded : True
