Problem with Remote Desktop Service.

Hi,

I don't know how it happened, but the "Remote Desktop Services" service disappeared, so I can't reach the server using RDP. At the moment, I can only log in using VNC. How can I restore TermService?
Kind regards,
Lukasz

    Try exporting this subkey from another one and import it on to the broken one then reboot it.

    Sounds badly broken / damaged. I'd probably stand up a new one, patch fully, migrate roles over and move on.

    You can also try a repair install by running setup.exe from the root of the install.

    I wouldn't hold much hope for this, time may be better spent standing up a new one, patch it fully and migrate the roles or applications over to it.
