This should open a screen, select manage network connections on the right. Now change the automatically find to input this IP and enter that static IP you created Use the other two of the three or if you only have two then use them but they should be different that your created static IP.
One thing to keep in my is that your connection will be the IP of the router. So if you are trying to remote desktop connect to your network, use the IP from the status screen of the router. You may occasionally have to check to see if your IP address has been changed since service providers can change them if you are not signed up for a static IP address. This can cause connection issues. You may need to perform the take own again. See if says listening. If not, then you have not configured the router correctly or the firewall etc.
If you are using Windows Mobile 6. Not sure why this is but if you find a fix let me know. Hope this helps and people get this to work first try. I got there by googling everything so you can find more extensive answers out there on specific questions or call an IT buddy.
Again, you may want to research if you are still having issues. There are hacks to make vista do remote desktop but team viewer works for me. I like this software when it is set up for me, but the set-up is almost impenetrable for the layperson.
That said, I know these are targeted at the more savvy users, but I think they are hurting their market with the difficult set-up process. I just keeps giving me errors.
I have never seen so many inept noobs all gathered together like this. I can relate with a lot of the frustration in the comments above. But the remote access functionality has come a long way.

Very very easy to set up. It works but only if A: There is no password screen— I must be logged in as a user and ready to go and B: I dont try to do anything that requires security. If it is true, windows may not be able to detect compatible audio driver on the Mobile. Contact the Mobile manufacture for further information.
I was able to RDP from the Mobile to my laptop running Visa Business 32 Bit, and the device was able to bring the sound from the laptop to the device This is a limitation set by Microsoft. Are you sure this is accurate? Office Office Exchange Server. Not an IT pro? Resources for IT Professionals.
When I try to log in with that user the screen flashes, but then nothing happens… it just goes back to the front screen of the RDP client. I got it work on my Vista 64bit.
Get yourself a free no-ip account for ease from no-ip. The key is you need your internet IP address and not your network ip. Hi Jonte. Thanks, yes I have that file, but I need the orginal termsrv. Click the local resourses tab there is may be local drives there or click the more button and tick the drives on the connecting pc you want to include. Now when you connect the remote PC will have in my computer its drives and your drives on your connecting pc.
BUT it can be slow. I have installed the termsrv. The port is set up fine also, as it claims also that it can listen through that. What is going on? It would be very useful if you could release this same package with the terminal. I just got a new 64 bit machine and really would appreciate this working. Would anyone care to elaborate on step 4 for me? I was fine with all the other steps but am clueless here What is and how do I run a batch file for my edition of Vista?
Thanks so much. I think I have a voodoo system here. I have a Home Premium 64 machine on which this worked. No matter which way I go about applying the hack, the result is the same: the termserv service quits after a few seconds of being launched. This is a great hack and all comments here were a BIG help. Could it be because certain functions are locked out of vista home premium, and I would need a seperate hack to file share through RDC? I wonder. I tried manually starting the 2 terminal services services and still, netstat -a does not show it yes i have it on port in registry.
I got the error and tried to fix it , found an article that stated that you should set the service back to Network service without password. This does not work for Vista Home Premium 64bit. Only 32bit. So i replaced to old. Now when i try to connect from my xbox to my pc it doenst work. And i think it has something to do with the register i did read it somewhere.. My sessions keep freezing up. Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Can anyone confirm if they have gotten this to work after the latest batch of MS updates as of Oct.
I have premium sp1 on my desktop pc and followed the posted steps and did a little bit more. After that, it worked like charm. Extra steps that I did: 1. Assigned my desktop pc that is wire connected to my router static IP address within the range allowed by my router.
Configured my router to forward port to my desktop pc that is wire connected to my router. After that, I could remote log into my desktop from my laptop OS xp within my home network. Also make sure you have the port allowed in firewall. I hope that some day there will be a free alternative to RDP that will use the same protocol so that clients can interchange between the free and the Microsoft versions without any difficulties, and then it will be so easy to get remote control support on any Windows machine.
With sp1 ultimate and the good dll, in french. But i expect what they do. The best hack i see since a long time. Felicitation to your team.
Beware — I downloaded the patch and happily used it for a couple of months — fantastic! I work as a programmer so I am pretty concious of MS updates etc, which I always manually update. However MS are doing it they managed to sneak in some code that checked the termsrv. After several attempts to revert to the original version — all which failed, I restored my original system from backups.
I am in no way trying to scare users into not installing — just make DAMN sure you have a complete backup of your system. I reckon the check may have come in with the Malicious Software Removal code. Hey Frans, thanks for the amazing tutorial if i can call it that but i seem to be having a problem i think because i am kind of green to this service.
Only trustedInstaller has full control of it. Great hack, my hats off to you. I have way to many laptops and desktops in this house to not have RDP. If you find a 64 hack please post it as I have a 64 bit laptop also. This worked like a champ for me until recently. Any ideas how to fix this? The error message I get during log on is:.
If I change his account type to be an ADministrator, I can then log on remotely. Of course I would prefer to not give him admin priveleges just to allow me to log in remotely to help him fix problems…. I did use this hack in the past, but due to an automatic Windows update , the hack stopped working, i. However looking at the recent comments, by David Martin, I feel a bit encouraged now. Does the hack work for Vista premium 64 bit? If so what updated level of Windows should I be at?
Does it matter? Right click computer and select manage. Hope this helps. Shantanu — thanks for the tip, but on my Vista Home Premium installation there is no Users and Groups option under the Computer Management console. And if everything fails, try UltraVNC, its superb, with scaling and right connection settings, it can do wonders.
Hi ive tried to enable remote desktop on Vista HP but it does not work. Any ideas? I tried the hack for Home Premium SP1. Is it not supposed to be there after running the hack, or is something wrong? No this will not happen. I think we are making it more complicated than required.
I think the following steps should make file transfers no problem. Give the newly created username on PC1 Admin rights. You can also map a drive, the same way. Resize this window, move it to the left of the Screen. Open C drive on local PC, resize, and move it to the right of the screen. Voila, copy from first screen to second, or vice-versa.
Did everything, and no luck. No control, just a view of the desktop. Have to click the Take Control button, and then everything was fine. Worked this way without the patch, since I had rolled everything back. Event Xml:. Addendum to last post; This only happens when logging on through RDC, once logged off everything is fine.
This happens when the account is logged in as a single user or two, makes no differents. Wondering if this has anything to do with the modded DLL? What a great help!! I used Windows a lot, when i first visited this blog, and today, around a year since then, Normally i work on Ubuntu linux. And let me tell you, linux rocks.
Just like most people i also used to think its difficult, but now i feel it interesting, a way to learn things, and most importantly, do what YOU want to do, not what the OS wants to do. But, linux thinks its your car, and YOU should decide how it should work. And, linux provides you with freedom. All the best. I can connect to the Vista box at home when I disable the Windows firewall on the Vista box, but not when the firewall is enabled.
Any suggestions? I have modified the termsrv. Is it only possible within the same wifi network or can i connect to it from anywhere in the world? Help would be appreciated. This patch only enables RDC on your computer.
If you want to use any non-administrator account from remote, add the account to the Remote Desktop users user group. RDC is much faster and the colors are more vibrant! RDP on the laptop works with Ultimate but only allows one session. On the desktop with home premium no RD at all of course. Yesterday I found a 64 bit version, works very well, except for the installation procedure itself. Basically I think you could use the installation script and the registry file from the 32 bit version here, replace the 32 bit.
Worked on orignal version. When I run it says port not listening any more. Uninstalled service pack 1 now works. Any updates? Worked on original version. What settings are required for this at the XP end?
Hey guys I made a bit from SP1 version of this if anyone is interested. Hope this helps some folks. The Terminal Services service was stopped successfully. The Terminal Services service was started successfully. After installing SP1 you must re-install the patch again because it gets overwritten by SP1. And make sure to use the patch with the updated termsrv.
Recently reinstalled the old PC, updated to SP1, applied the patch. I used it once but it has a … ahem … slight problem. Dilan, everything seems to be working. So what is the problem? Can you open a RD on the same PC to another user account? Are you using the right dll? What error messages are you getting, if any? Any messages in the eventlogs? Dilan, on Vista home premium the hack only works with admin accounts. You only need to do this for Vista to be controlled, not to control.
Does SO work. Thanks for flaming. Garbage rant from crap noob. I think the boot screen changed…. No I am just wondering what is suppossed to happen after all that clears?
A login will appear, depending on the OS type your username and password, or click your username and type your password You can also specify these credentials in the settings. Or account 1 remote, account 2 on a different remote machine.
And the server locked. The administrator account still exists in Vista but is disabled by default. Leave it that way. You should now be able to open remote desktop:. It should open a new desktop. You can then test it from another computer specifying the real address of course. On both computers check whether port is open. Worked perfectly on two Vista SP1 machines. More like a lot slower.
What have I missed? I was using it yesterday fine.. The IP that ipconfig shows is the actual IP address of the laptop itself.
Downloading the termsrv. Extracting to the Desktop 3. Running the premium. After reading the prompt to be successful and listening, I make sure port is indeed working. Enter the IP Address of the Router 3. Enter the User Name of the Vista Machine 4. Configure and safe the settings correctly 5.
Try connecting again. If the problem continues, contact the owner of the remote computer or your network administrator. Andrew Block — Thanks so much. I tried your x64 version and it fixed my terminal services. Solid thanx. I wanna know what could have caused this, this was the only thing I did last night. Works with home premium great and no router config.
Check it out. Can you please tell me how to undo that? It looks great but I will try later, so can you please tell me how to undo that? You did run the right script.
It really should work then. Big issue is that it is asking my to have login credentials. When I read some other decomentation, it tells me that to create these RDC login credentials you go tto the securities tab.
The particular menu is not in my version of Vista to let me create the user login details. Can someone please let me know how they got around this, and possibly a bit of a step-by-step for the less technically minded. Then,goto task manager. Check out what is your network username, which is displayed in the Users tab. This will work only if your account is an administrator user account.
Now login with your username and password from your other pc. Note that assigning a password, and having a administrator account are compulsory. I installed the batch file successfully but could not make a remote connection. How do I test that the remote desktop server is running?
If you get a message that a connection cannot be made, there might be a problem. Hello, Can somebody pls write a step by step verification strategy to make sure that this hack is working as expected after sucessfully running the batch file and the TCP port?
Many of us just do not know where to look for symptoms when remote connection does not work even after successful installation of this hack.
Is there a round about way of achieving the same thing? If not already done, add tcp port to exceptions list. Also, in services, check if any dependencies for Terminal services are not satisfied.
The service is not listening to port This is what I have done to zero in on the problem. I executed the commandlines in the batch file one by one after removing the silent mode. After applying the right version everything was OK. AFAIK the current version of the batch file should sort all of this out automagically but you might want to check it out manually just to be sure.
You seem knowlegable enough to do that. Things to keep in mind are: — SP1 needs a different. Make sure you run the correct. As for firewalls, you might also be using another firewall besides or instead of Windows Firewall. Usually this will involve setting up port forwarding on the router. Rob Ultimate needs this crack also? With it you can open a remote desktop on a machine running Ultimate when there is already a session on the console of the machine.
Without the hack the session on the console of the machine will have to be disconnected before the remote desktop can be opened. This is because of licensing. Oh, good observation. Well, other than trying out VNC. I installed OpenSuse It even mentioned DECnet support. Shantanu, I just sent you a mail using the address on your site very neat site btw.
Any Ideas. I have finally got it working. I made the biggest mistake of not checking my downloads first. I used pre-SP1 dll instead of SP1 dll which caused all the issues. I was half way out of the door to buy XP in my frustration.
Disaster overted!! Hey i have a problem i think cuz its not working on my vista. My email is nwshober mchsi. Well for Vista Premium users trying to get this thing to work, I found out you have to copy the termsrv. The last time I used the script on Home Premium all I did was make a restore point and run the the script as administrator.
No rebooting or safe mode necessary, just run and have fun. Just wanted to help with those having trouble… if you are getting errors, you do not need to disable UAC. The SP1 version of this hack works perfectly on SP2 beta. I tested on windows ultimate 64 bit but as it uses the same modified termsrv.
MS will probably enhance SP2 with a feature necessitating the devolpment of a new version of this hack now. That is something I use alot between my XP computers but I would love to be able to use it on my new Vista Premium media server. Hey guys i was wondering if i did everything correctly because after restarting my computer in the remote tab there is still no remote desktop so i can allow my computer to be accessed.
I downloaded the file ran it in CMD and it said everything went successful and i also enabled the port in the firewall but it wont work. I have windows home premium sp1 32bit. Thanks and any support would be greatly appreciated. There are 4 of them. This is working great, but I have a small problem with it.
I start the computer to control WOL , then I remotely connect to the computer with your solution , all is fine. Then I want to connect directly to the computer to control it has a keyboard and a screen , and it is not possible.
Everytime I want to do it, I have a message telling that the password is not correct, so I have to restart the computer or to close the session. Who knows, it might be useful sometime in the future. To get a connection to your computer at work from your computer at home, the computer at work has to run a RDP server.
Windows XP Professional has one built in. Vista home premium has a RDP client by default. RDC is enabled on the host comp, firewall has RDC and remote assist for good measure as an exception. Just install sp1 again, and apply de patch, be carefull what you update from there. KB was worse than all previous trojans and virusses combined and I got it from … Microsoft itself.
I thought those damn updates were supposed to make Windows a little better or at least less buggy. The only malicious software I ever had to remove was kb and I got that from Windows Update itself. Why does WU think I need an update every month to filter junk mail. Does anyone know how to get this patch working on ultimate the same way it does on home premium where U can log in as administrator on When i use the local computer with other Vista Business or servers its okay.
Yet another thing that Mac does out of the box that Windows needs a manual for. And if you are going to resort to VNC anyway then you might also consider dropping windows altogether. I disagree with you about XP. I can get it to work.. Fixing whatever that was seems to have caused to stop listening. Details please. On home premium you should be able to rdp to Whether the port is listening or not and whether firewalls are letting anything through or not are both important yet quite unrelated issues here.
Sorry this didn't help. Thanks for your feedback. I have installed and re-installed my Vista Home premium 2 times already because of Remote Desktop connection. I have a problem connecting from another laptop running windows 7 to connect to my desktop running Vista. The remote operation works the other way around meaning from desktop running vista the laptop running windows 7 professional.
I have gone though all the forum answers but nothing help.
