Windows 10 RDP Issue: Unable to connect using RDP Protocol to access Windows 10 and Windows 8.1

Windows 10 RDP Issue: Unable to connect using RDP Protocol to access Windows 10 and Windows 8.1


Product Line:  VERDE

In Windows 10 and 8.1 Microsoft changed RDP’s defaults. They modified the default for “SecurityLayer” from 0 to 2.

Reboot
