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.
The simplest way to allow access to your PC from a remote device is using the Remote Desktop options under Settings. Since this functionality was added in the Windows 10 Fall Creators update (1709), a separate downloadable app is also available that provides similar functionality for earlier versions of Windows. You can also use the legacy way of enabling Remote Desktop, however this method provides less functionality and validation.
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.
If you only want to access your PC when you are physically using it, you don't need to enable Remote Desktop. Enabling Remote Desktop opens a port on your PC that is visible to your local network. You should only enable Remote Desktop in trusted networks, such as your home. You also don't want to enable Remote Desktop on any PC where access is tightly controlled.
Be aware that when you enable access to Remote Desktop, you are granting anyone in the Administrators group, as well as any additional users you select, the ability to remotely access their accounts on the computer.
If you want to restrict who can access your PC, choose to allow access only with Network Level Authentication (NLA). When you enable this option, users have to authenticate themselves to the network before they can connect to your PC. Allowing connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with NLA is a more secure authentication method that can help protect your computer from malicious users and software. To learn more about NLA and Remote Desktop, check out Configure NLA for RDS Connections.
When I have fixed the security, which I hope to get help with - which user should I use and password - on my Web access that works, I use e-mail as user and an associated password, but surely these are not the ones I should use here for home network access?
Thank you for making the effort and posting the screenshot. There are the two areas you need to fix in order to enable local access to your My Cloud Home (MCH) and log in from your version of Windows. The MCH software is designed for users running the Home or Pro version of Windows which still allow guest authentication log on by default.
It would appear that you are using a version of Windows such as Windows Enterprise or Windows Education which do not allow the default behavior typical of the Windows Home version and that is because:
With the change of security in Windows 11 Pro, I have now got through, but still not 100% - I think I am close now that everything works as it should. I have changed group policy registry value to insecure guest authentication enabled.
I would like to justify that - because my brother also has a My Cloud Home where the Windows backup had stopped working - understandably (as I know myself) as it was set up through the discontinued apps.
By default, Windows users belong to the Administrators group as local accounts with administrative privileges and can obtain administrator privileges. If you are not sure which user account you have, check or change it as follows:
To enable Windows 10 Administrator accounts in Windows 10 without administrator privileges, you need to contact administrators who can perform administrator tasks or change your privileges. However, if you are an administrator and forget the administrator password or lose your account access, an alternative route might be needed. This happens via the supplied Windows disc. In this case, it is recommended to contact IT specialists to avoid system damage.
If something goes wrong due to system changes with administrator privileges, it is recommended to have a backup of the most important data. IONOS offers MyDefender for a secure, automatic backup for all devices.
Want to use a secure, encrypted connection or access your company or home network while on the road? A VPN connection on Windows 10 is the solution. VPN connections route your encrypted data through a secure tunnel and provide improved data security. Learn all you need to know for setting up a VPN in Windows 10.
thankyou so much sir. this method work on my laptop acer nitro. windows 11 home. it takes me to long to install instead of complaining i wait and play mobile games while im waiting. after that my laptop automatically restart. then i find the sandbox in windows features on or off. thanks a lot keep up the good work. i hope you have youtube content and i think you will have a lot of followers and views.

I have one question:
I have a Windows 11 home edition. this program run then i access to pro like hyper v and sand box feature use then microsoft find and any panisment and late or show security update ya stop update
Make sure you can:
Yet another way to compile programs on your personal computers is to install Cygwin and WinSCP.For Cygwin, you should start by installing just the base, devel and util packages. You can install more packages later, as you need them.
