![]() ![]() This was all tested using a Windows 10 Home laptop since it was all I have access to right now, but I will report back with the results on the Chrome book. Another strange consequence is that if any sound is playing it will come through the speakers of both the host machine and client machine, even though the host machine will only be displaying the windows login screen. It will also make the host computer go to a lock screen when it is remotely accessed, which could be a pro or a con depending on your use case. First, enable Allow users to connect remotely by using Remote Desktop Services and disable Require user authentication for remote connections by using Network Level AuthenticationĪnd if all went well you are done!

This is a big deal for me since the computer I am remoting into has large dual monitors, and the Chromebook I'm getting only has a 10 inch display.
