Hi
On previous versions of Windows you could put an IP address : portnumber i.e. 192.168.0.1:1234
Now in Windows 10 it says the : character is an illegal character
so how do I define the port number to connect to for a remote desktop connection??
Just an update, it would appear it's not actually the : character (as the error message states)
it's the fact that the port number is 5 digits long. It would appear that in Windows 10, it will not let you connect to anything more then a 4 digit long port number. If you have a 5 digit long port number it will spit back an error about illegal characters....
anyone have a work around?? (can't change this port to 4 digits for other reasons)
it works fine to me when connecting to e.g. port 23389 and 43389. with win10 pro
the 5 digit port I'm trying starts with a 7.... someone mentioned to me there could be an issue above 6
