How to enable Remote Desktop in windows 7 BASIC ?

I was following tutorial http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/ff404238.aspx

It says

To configure remote access, follow these steps:

1. In Control Panel, click System And Security, and then click System.

2. On the System page, click Remote Settings in the left pane. This opens the System Properties dialog box to the Remote tab.

3. To disable Remote Desktop, select Don’t Allow Connections To This Com¬puter, and then click OK.Skip the remaining steps.

4. To enable Remote Desktop, you have two options. You can:

Select Allow Connections From Computers Running Any Version Of Remote Desktop to allow connections from any version of Windows.

Select Allow Connections Only From Computers Running Remote Desktop With Network Level Authentication to allow connections only from Windows 7 or later computers (and computers with secure network authentication).

I personally like Teamviewer free for personal use and its easier to install then VNC . The person that you are helping doesnt even need to install it they can just run it. Otherwise you can also install it as a service.

I can control the destop by a Android phone, iPhone, Browser with flash, Linux, Mac, or PC

      "all the way down" by 33 whole dollars. Amazing. You shouldn't have.

      If they make a portable version, I might give it a try, but I will always prefer hotkeys to that approach
    • The Synology DS923+ is down to $610 just for today on Newegg

      The Synology DS923+ is down to $610 just for today on Newegg by Steven Parker Right now on Newegg, and only for today (June 26) you can find the Synology DS923+ discounted all the way down to $609.99 when using a coupon during checkout, down from it's normal $642.99 price. Although we haven't reviewed the DS923+ on Neowin, we have seen Synology before and rated it quite highly. Besides, the DS1522 even has the same AMD R1600 CPU. Some people would consider Synology homelab NAS equipment the "gold standard", and as such, competitors strive to do as good, at least in regard to the Operating System, DSM, which ticks all the boxes for amateurs, professionals and small business users for its inclusion of mobile apps for core app services such as Surveillance Station, and more. Here are the most important specifications: Synology DS923+ CPU AMD Ryzen R1600 2-core 2.6 (base) / 3.1 (turbo) GHz Graphics No Memory 4 GB DDR4 SODIMM, maximum 32 GB (16 GB x 2) Disk Capacity 72 TB (18TB x 4) RAID Level RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, and JBOD + SHR (Synology Hybrid RAID) Network 2 x RJ-45 1 GbE Internal storage 2 x M.2 2280 NVMe Slot USB Ports 1 x USB 3.2 (5 Gbps) HDMI 1 x Expansion 1 x eSATA 1 x Gen3 x2 network upgrade slot Size (H/W/D) 166 mm x 199 mm x 223 mm Weight 2.24 kg Power 35.51 W (Access) 11.52 W (HDD Hibernation) What's in the box? Main Unit X 1 Accessory Pack X 1 AC Power Adapter X 1 AC Power Cord X 1 RJ-45 LAN Cable X 2 Quick Installation Guide X 1 You may notice that the DS923+ does not have integrated graphics, which is a step down from earlier Intel-based models that did include an iGPU. However, even this year's model (the DS925+) does not include an iGPU with its slightly newer AMD Ryzen Embedded V1500B CPU, but also unhelpfully locks down what you can use in it. All 2025 models require hardware from Synology's own compatibility list, this currently does not affect the DS923+. In addition you are only getting dual 1 GB Ethernet with the DS923+, so you may need to factor in the cost of adding the 10 GbE PCIe network card, which sells for $110.99 on Newegg. Ultimately, deciding on a NAS device comes to down to your individual requirements. For example, more bays is not always better, especially once you factor in the price of hard drives. Those with more modest storage requirements may be better off with a 2-bay device. From my personal experience, DSM 7.2 is great, it's so great that I have installed it on my TerraMaster F4-424 Max. Finally, and perhaps more importantly many tinkerers would prefer building their own server which is definitely a cheaper option, but without the polish of a dedicated NAS. If you have no need to transcode video on the fly and want a four bay NAS device, then the DS923+ is a great solution for every other use case and I can highly recommend it. Synology DS923+ for $609.99 on Newegg (was $642.99) Enter coupon code SACET2369 for above price during checkout
    • Chrome extension blocks social media until you scream "I'm a loser"

      I don't think it's childish, but I do think it would be ineffective. If I was addicted to social media I would just disable the extension when I wanted to visit the certain sites.
