When trying to connect to the Host computer using Remote Desktop Connection (in-buiIt) I get:

"Remote access to the server is not enabled."

But when using Remote Desktop (Download) I get:

"You have been disconnected because another connection was made to the remote PC. Error Code: 0x516."

  • I've Disabled restrict to 1 user and Enabled up to 10 users via 'gpedit.msc'
  • Router set point forwarding from public facing IP to computer IP address correctly.
  • On the Host I have "Allowed remote access" and "Allowed remote connections to this computer"
