I need a way to always make a Windows 7 Pro machine, which will not normally be connected to a keyboard or monitor, ready for Remote Desktop Connection (That is get past the windows user login screen).
Right now I can successfully connect Remotely once, then when I disconnect it is stuck in a user login screen wanting a password. I cannot figure out how to get past that remotely.
I have LogMEIn Hamachi VPN. I am accessing with a laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium using win Remote Desktop Connection.
I am guessing I need a powershell command I can run from the remote laptop computer to log the local computer in... but I know very little scripting or other stuff like that.
I tried removing the password all-together from the machine-to-be-remotely-accessed but that didn't work and, besides, I'd prefer to keep some level of security.
(FYI - it is my giant gaming rig with all my stuff on it, but I am traveling over seas for a few months and a friend offered to keep it in a corner plugged in with internet... so I am trying (with little effect) make it useful to me while I am gone: to maintain access to it for important records, and also use as a proxy so I can still access USA IP address while I am in more restrictive countries)
Additional Information: You need to have a password set for the user you want to access, or remote will not work. Also, I am pretty sure that remote desktop is a feature that is only included in at least the Professional version of Windows, are you sure about the Home Edition? – Michael K – 2013-03-19T12:25:24.797
