Hello,
Windows 11 Home edition does not include the Remote Desktop feature by default, which allows you to remotely access your computer from another device. This feature is only available in the Windows 11 Pro and Enterprise editions. Enable Remote Desktop on your PC | Microsoft Learn
If you previously had the ability to remote into your Windows 11 Home edition and it suddenly stopped working, there could be a few reasons for this:
- You may have accidentally disabled the Remote Desktop feature or changed the settings that allow remote connections.
- Your firewall or antivirus software may be blocking incoming remote desktop connections.
- There could be network issues preventing the connection, such as incorrect IP address or port settings.
- Your user account may not have the necessary permissions to allow remote access.
To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:
- Check if the Remote Desktop feature is enabled in System Properties or in the Windows Features section of the Control Panel.
- Ensure that your firewall and antivirus software are not blocking incoming remote desktop connections.
- Verify that your network settings are correct and that your device has a static IP address.
- Make sure that your user account has the necessary permissions to allow remote access.
- Try restarting both your computer and your router to see if this resolves any network issues.
If none of these steps work, you may need to consider upgrading to a version of Windows that includes the Remote Desktop feature, such as Windows 11 Pro or Enterprise. Alternatively, you could use a third-party remote desktop application such as TeamViewer or AnyDesk.
