2. Enable RDP Remote Desktop on remote computer.
The steps to enable RDP on a remote computer is similar to those performed on the local computer or laptop. The registry setting that needs to be changed is the same. The main significant difference is you'll have to remote connect the registry editor to the target computer on the network, of course common caveats remain. First of all, there needs to be network access to the remote computer.
Open the registry editor following the same steps for the local computer. Once open, click File then select Connect Network Registry from the dropdown menu.
Enter the computer name of the desktop or laptop you are trying to enable RDP desktop access using the registry on the network. You can use the computer name or IP address. Click okay.
If remote registry service is enabled, you could receive a prompt to login depending on scenarios. For example, if both Windows desktops are members of the domain, you access will be quick, and no prompt will be presented. If the two desktops are in a workgroup, you'll receive a prompt to login. You'll have to enter a username and password of an account that has Admin credentials on the remote desktop.
The following message may be displayed which indicates the remote registry service is not running on the remote windows desktop or laptop computer.
In this case, the service was disabled. Of course, if you have direct access to the desktop to review services, then you have access to enable RDP locally on the computer too. If you do not, if there is someone present at the remote computer to enable for you, then that's one path or else you'll have to enable it next time you are present at that computer's console. I will enable to proceed with the steps to enable RDP remotely. . .. I'll be right back ;) . .
Upon connecting, you'll see the remote computer listed in registry editor.
Expand the remote computer and go to the same registry key as done for the local computer's registry.
RDP is enabled on the remote computer. This works best on a domain. If both computers are in a workgroup (the same workgroup), it's best if the admin accounts match on the two computers if they are not members of active directory domain.
