Odd remote desktop issue - closes after conifguring?
Greetings,
I'm having issues with Remote Desktop. I've tried multiple systems and the same thing happens. My home computer has remote desktop enabled, ports forwarded, etc. On the computer I'm using to connect, I enter remote desktop and fill out credentials, accept certificate, etc. When it goes to "configuring desktop" the session acts like it's going to start but closes without opening the desktop. No error is given, nothing.
I've tried this using different connections, the local network, and different systems. No matter what I can't get it to take.
Any ideas what's going on or how I should go about troubleshooting this?
EDIT:
Ran SFC, CHKDSK, and Super Antispyware
Now it's working, betting SFC found something corrupt . . .
EDIT EDIT:
I think I found the culprit. After running the scans I only remoted after a reboot and it worked. Booting firefox prevented RD from working again and would require a reboot to fix. After disabling all add-ons and plugins this did not occur. Going through one by one I found Adobe Flash to start this issue. By uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Flash the issue no longer seems to occur - though I'll be going through the rest of the plugins eventually.
Hopefully this is of use to someone else in the future . . .
