How to Enable Remote Desktop Sharing

1. Click the Windows 'Start' button.
2. Right-click the 'Computer' entry, and then select 'Properties.' The Computer Properties interface will open.
3. Click the 'Remote Settings' link in the left selection pane.
4. Click the 'Remote' tab in the 'System Properties' dialog box.
5. Click one of the two radio buttons next to the 'Allow' options in the 'Remote Desktop' section of the dialog box. The first 'Allow' option allows computers running any version of Remote Desktop to connect to the computer and is the less secure option. The second option allows computers running only Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication, which is more secure. Select the first 'Allow' option for home networks.
6. Click the 'Select Users' button, if desired, to limit access to only one or a few users. The Users interface will open. Click on each user to allow and then click 'OK.'
7. Click the 'OK' button to save the settings and exit the System Properties dialog box.
