Remote Desktop is a multi-channel protocol that allows a user to connect to a networked computer. Remote Desktop, enables you to connect to your computer across the Internet from virtually any computer, Pocket PC, or Smartphone. Once connected, Remote Desktop gives you mouse and keyboard control over your computer while showing you everything that’s happening on the screen. With Remote Desktop, you can leave your computer at the office without losing access to your files, applications, and e-mail. To setup the remote desktop in a windows 7 machine just follow these simple steps.
1. Click on Start –> Right Click on My Computer –> Properties
2. In the left hand pane you can find Remote Settings, Just Click on that.
3. Select Allow connections from computer running any version of Remote Desktop (Even though it is less secure it is recommended to select this option as it allows the users from previous windows operating systems.. to access remote connections to the computer)
5. Click on Apply to activate the settings.
Why you don’t just write something like ‘just like in previous version of win…’. Will you blog about how to do it in Vista and XP too?
