You can use Remote Desktop to connect to and control your PC from a remote device by using a Microsoft Remote Desktop client (available for Windows, iOS, macOS and Android). When you allow remote connections to your PC, you can use another device to connect to your PC and have access to all of your apps, files, and network resources as if you were sitting at your desk.
To connect to a remote PC, that computer must be turned on, it must have a network connection, Remote Desktop must be enabled, you must have network access to the remote computer (this could be through the Internet), and you must have permission to connect. For permission to connect, you must be on the list of users. Before you start a connection, it's a good idea to look up the name of the computer you're connecting to and to make sure Remote Desktop connections are allowed through its firewall.
To configure your PC for remote access, download and run the Microsoft Remote Desktop Assistant. This assistant updates your system settings to enable remote access, ensures your computer is awake for connections, and checks that your firewall allows Remote Desktop connections.
A Remote Desktop Gateway (RD Gateway) lets you connect to a remote computer on a corporate network from anywhere on the Internet. You can create and manage your connections to gateways using the Remote Desktop app.

I have installed LogMeIn Hamachi on my work laptop and on my home NAS (both Windows 10). I installed it on the remote machine (home NAS) via RDC (Remote Desktop Connection) and was able to connect LogMeIn Hamachi (LMIH) and transfer data without issue. I then started a backup and closed RDC and then lost the LMIH connection. I re-connected via RDC and the LMIH connected was restored. I verified this happens every time without exception in my estimate of 7-10 attempts.

A remote-controlled computer can be used by only one person at a time. As such, it is recommended for use only by those who do not share the same office computer with other people. Before a remote desktop connection can be accomplished, your work computer must be configured to receive the connection. If you have Windows 10 on your work computer, then it should already be set up for remote connection and you may proceed. If you do not have Windows 10 or you are having other issues connecting remotely, please contact the SOM IT for assistance. Otherwise, choose your operating system by clicking one of the two pictures below.
