Yes, the Remote Desktop was not enabled, but now I have this message:

The local policy of this system does not permit you to logon interactively.

Thanks again.

This could happen if you use an account with a blank password.

Create a password on the user logon then you won't get that message.

Do the following :
Log-in as the administrator on the machine that you want to remote to >
Right-click My Comp > Properties > Click on the remote tab > The bottom
option of "Allow users to connect remotely" must be ticked > Click "Select
Remote Users > Specify the users you want to connect i.e if you connect to
that pc as Joe Soap you must add the name of Joe Soap here > Click OK all
the way out

If you remote desktop now into the pc you won't get the error anymore.
