Cannot Remote From Win 10 Laptop into Win 8.1 Laptop
This is like an algebra question and I was never good at algebra.
My Network in a nut shell
Computer A - Windows 7 Professional Desktop
Computer B - Windows 8.1 Laptop
Computer C - Windows 10 Laptop build 9926 (looked for updates as I know there are, but came back blank. I'm not in the "rings")
All are on a WAN.
As far as remote desktop connections:
A= (connects to) B
B=A
A=C
C=A
B=C
C x(will not connect to) B - This is the connection I most want. But C can access B's public folders
Error Message is the following
1. It is, A=B
2. Nope
3. It is
A and B are on Norton internet security 21.0.7.11 C is on Win 10 Windows Security essentials. C has shared trust levels on the Norton firewalls and Windows firewall on C has also been set up to allow RD to pass through. I have turned off both B and C's firewalls to confirm it is not a settings issue and they and I still get C x B but with both firewalls on B=C.
I am truly at a loss. I would point to Windows 10 but C=A. Unless there is some conflict with Win 10and Win 8, but the public folders for both are accessible fro the network. I have spelled the computer name for B in both upper/lower and all caps (and besides, A=B)
