Windows 11 Tutorials || Microsoft Remote Desktop on Windows 11
On Windows 11, you can use the Remote Desktop app to control other devices in the Local Area Network (LAN) or through the internet. However, depending on where the computer is located, the app is only part of the puzzle, as you will have to configure other settings to make the connection happen.
For instance, on the remote device, you will need to enable the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to allow connections (only available on Windows 11 Pro). You will need to configure port forwarding on the router if you plan to connect over the internet. Also, you may have to install the Remote Desktop app and configure a remote connection on the source computer to establish a remote session.
It is worth noting that while the Remote Desktop Protocol is only available on Windows 11 Pro, you can install the Remote Desktop app to establish a connection on the Pro or Home editions of Windows, including Windows 10.
