Tripredacus Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Is this a domain controller or domain member? You can check the first place, Properties of Computer, Remote tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

submix8c Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 As Tripredacus said - Turn it back On Here (that's where you must have turned it off).You can check the first place, Properties of Computer, Remote tab.That's the "button" you must have pressed. If it's disabled on the Server (or any machine) you can't get to the Server (or any machine) via RDP. Right-Click "Computer", click "Properties", open it and there's the "Remote" setting/tab (in Control Panel->System). HTH (Pssst - turn it back on... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tripredacus Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 In my experience, that message means: - RDP is disabled - Firewall rule was changed (some configs you need to allow RDP through the firewall after enabling it) - connectivity issues For the third one, if you are using a computer name, try also FQDN and/or IP address. If you are certain the server is up, allow ICMP response in the firewall settings (if not already) and verify you can ping it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karim986 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 Thanks to every body for your answers.I tried to go to properties everything seems to be fine. I use the ip address of the server to acces to it. This is really frustrating. I also tried to change the fdenytsconnections register value from 1 to 0 and it didn't help. Please help it has been like this for 15 days now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nitroshift Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Start ---> Run, services.msc and check if any of the Remote Desktop services are set as disabled. If there's any, enable and start it. nitroshift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
