This happens on one of PC's on our domain-less LAN. RDP works fine for all other PC's but one of them will only allow RDP if a user is already logged in
The RDP session starts normal enough and the client is presented with a "User/Password" dialog. If the client has the same user account as the currently logged user on the remote, the desktop switches to the client. If the users are different, the current user on the remote pc gets a pop-up dialog to allow/disallow takeover of the remote. But when nobody is logged into the remote pc, any client trying to connect is immediatly logged off. The status dialog that pops up first shows "Loading personal settings..." but the switches quickly to "Closing all network connections...". After a while the RDP client terminates as if the user had logged off from a regular RDP session
Furthermore I noticed that the checkbox in the System Properties/Remote panel for remote desktop is checked but disabled (i.e. I cannot dis- or enable remote desktop, it's stuck on enabled)
Any help in this case is appreciated. TIA
