My computer is running Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit Logged in as Administrator
The 'Remote desktop' option to "allow connections..." is not present under Control Panel\System and Security\System under the remote tab
My issue is the same as can be seen here however my issue is not resolved from the info on this link.
According to my research this option should be available in Windows 7 Professional
I also have seen this question on Super User but the solution there is not an option as I can not delete SP1. Windows was installed with it.
I even tried enabling through the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server
fDenyTSConnections DWORD Value set to '0'
But still not working
Why would this option be missing and what can I do to solve my problem.
Are you logged in as the administrator? Where did you go to look for this option? (To rule out that you're simply looking in the wrong place). Do you have the necessary windows feature installed? (Go to control panel -> Turn Windows Features on/Off to determine if it's installed). – George Stocker – 2014-04-16T00:51:38.517
None of those screens show the screen that would have 'allow connections...' screen. Which screen is it? – George Stocker – 2014-04-16T00:57:36.837
here is a perfect depiction http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/310095-can-t-find-remote-desktop-conection-windows-7-a.html The prooblem discussed in this link however is also not applicable to me as I am running a version of windows that should have this option.

I have hopefully edited my question to include enough information now? thank you George for your explanation – Cynapse – 2014-04-16T01:10:20.987
