Windows Firewall is also one of the most common causes of Remote Desktop problems. If Remote Desktop is blocked by Firewall, you won't be able to connect it with another device. To check if Windows Firewall blocked Remote Desktop, do the following: Go to Search, type firewall and open Windows Defender Firewall and enable it.

    Thanks for the response, but it's not the Windows firewall. I have disabled the firewall and it still doesn't connect. Remote Desktop is already allowed.
