This is a series of detectives who are constantly watching the latest information on Windows 10, answering Gimon related to Windows 10.
From the basic techniques to the tricks and gods, and the information on the latest build Insider Preview, I will introduce it.
Search for "Remote Desktop" in the Windows Store and install this icon app
Survey request Can't be remotely controlled the PC at home from home?
Remote control of PCs equipped with Windows 10 is possible.Windows has long been prepared for a remote desktop, so that a remote PC is projected on the display at hand.For Windows 10, on May 26, the UWP version "Remote Desktop has been released. If it is not automatically upgraded, download it from the Windows Store.
The start screen of the app.Enter your PC name or IP address in the form at the bottom of the screen
Open the settings from the upper left menu
Enter the account information used in the operated PC
There is only a UWP app, and the appearance has changed with a simple UI.It seems that it can be used without any problems even with tablet mode touch operation.The usage method is basically the same.Start an app called "Remote Desktop Connection", enter your PC name or IP address in "PC name", and tap "Connection".If you use a remote printer, clipboard, smart card, microphone, etc., open "Settings" → "Connection Settings" and check the settings.
You will get a security check, so select "Connect"
I was able to connect.Another P desktop is displayed in the window
If you can connect, the remote PC will be forcibly a login screen, and you can operate it on your PC.You can move the files you have forgotten to the cloud storage on your PC or check the programs running on your PC.
Since the connection history remains in the thumbnail, the next connection is easy
However, there are two points to check.First of all, the "operated side" = "host" is Windows 10 Pro Edition.The Home edition can be a "operating side" = "client", but be careful as it cannot be a host.Also, since the routers and Windows firewall functions used at home block out external access, it is necessary to open it.You can open the 3389 port of the router, but it's a difficult task for the first person.
Start screen of "Chrome Remote Desktop".Install on both hosts and clients and sign in with the same Google account
Select a PC and connect.There is no need for difficult settings for routers
Therefore, I recommend "Chrome Remote Desktop".The extension of the Chrome browser is attractive that you can easily control your PC.I am glad that it can be used in Home edition.
Can be operated with Windows 10 "Remote Desktop".In addition, the UWP app appears, and anyone can connect it if it is in the same network, such as at home.However, it is necessary to go beyond the router to connect from home to home to parents' home.If you can't, use "Chrome Remote Desktop", etc.
The Windows 10 Detectives will update every week on Monday and Wednesday at 9:00 am and 12:00 on Sunday.looking forward to!
