Windows XP: Remote Desktop

There are many times when my friends need help regarding their PC. It was troublesome for me to go to their room just for a quick problem. If only I know how to use remote desktop earlier, my life will be easier.

What does Remote Desktop do? It allows us to view our PC through another PC. That’s mean you can ask your friend to enable his remote desktop and do work on his PC from your PC. Very exciting.

However, the main PC will automatically log off once you connect to the PC using remote desktop. One one connection is allowed at a time using remote desktop.

Enabling Remote Desktop

To access your PC from somewhere else, firstly you need to turn on Remote Desktop at system properties. Check both for Remote Assistance and Remote Desktop at the System Properties.

Connect to your PC

To connect to your PC, once must know your IP address or your computer name and password.

To know your IP address, you can go to command prompt and type ipconfig.

So, had you use remote desktop for interesting things?

  Having remote access is great, sure beats having to be physically present whenever someone needs help. RHUB’s remote support product is really useful when you need to support multiple people at one time. Their products allows for multi-tiered concurrent support. A helpful feature if all your friends have the same problem and needs your help.
