    I have enabled the "Allow users to connect remotely using Remote Desktop Service" and changed the limit of connections to 2 but still, my colleagues cannot log on my PC. Are there any more settings that I need to change?

    Try the following....

  1. go to Control PanelSystem and SecurityAdministrative Tools     open computer management.         >click on local users and groups > groups                > Click on Adminstrator or Remote Desktop users       Make sure you have added them to these groups.
  2. Right click my computer, and click on properties.           Click on "Remote settings" (on the right pane)            Select "Allow connections from computers running on any version of Remote desktop (less Secure)"

    Make sure you have installed terminal services. The word 'Terminal services' changed in different windows OS releases
