Guest rene Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 I upgraded my computer with windows update SP3 and all the latest updates. Now I can log in once remotely with remote desktop but after that once I log out I can't log back in until I reboot the computer that I am trying to connect to. Help

If you're connecting to another PC or server, there's some new switches that replace the old methods of connecting.

Guest Jav Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Re: Remote Desktop not working after upgrade I am having the same problem after SP3 installation. I do not even see the Remote Desktop Connection in the Accessories. The articles you quoted seem to be talking about connecting with Windows Server 2008. I need to connect to Server 2003. Do you know if there is a way to restore the old functionality? I think it is pathetic that SP3 update shows up in our "New Updates are Available" thingie and totally changes the functionalty of our computers without warning what it is about to do.

Guest rene Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Re: Remote Desktop not working after upgrade The remote machine is a desktop computer with windows XP professional on it. It works once to connect to it but won't work again until I reboot the remote machine.

I don't know the statistics behind it but I would surmise the majority of users wouldn't even know what Remote Desktop is. PA Bear posted a link to a KB article I was going to suggest beyond those two I already have so please have a look at his post to rene. - Thee Chicago Wolf
