The firewalls rules in Windows aren't that clear. You see the "Public" rules, right above the ones you have highlighted? Those also apply when Windows thinks it's on a public network. To test, try enabling those rules. If you can now RDP to your computer, then that's the problem.

They are separated for a reason : The "public" networks can host amongst its users some that could be malicious and attempt to gain access : it's BAD to have too many open ports in an unsecured network (such as any other networks than your own protected Lan). Having good passwords, antivirus, IDS, etc is also required, but won't protect in all cases, if you leave many holes opened in the firewall itself (allowing attackers to try many more vulnerabilities) – Olivier Dulac – 2014-04-14T17:16:37.313
