Windows 7 remote Desktop Connection issue

[wesricho7]

hi all,

im having trouble setting up remote desktop connection on windows 7 home.

When going to my remote settings, I only have an option to enable 'allow remote assistance to this computer' available.

I dont have any further options below this that you usually get for example 'dont allow connections to this computer', allow connections from computers running any version of remote desktop' etc....

I believe this is causing my remote desktop connection attempts to fail as i have already troubleshoot windows firewall and my security software.

does anybody know why these settings are not visable and how i would go about resolving this issue???

any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks all

Try the following

In the run box or search as its now known, type
MSTSC.exe
The press return

It's the executable for microsoft terminal services client.
