First off, see if it is listening on 3389

Also, enable telnet client on another machine, and try and telnet in on 3389

If it isn’t listening, check the RDP service with services.msc from a command prompt.

Also as suggested, do the testing with the firewall turned off, but that’s unlikely to be the problem.

3389 is listening on the desktop but I can’t telnet to it. I can telnet the other way. Also checked the regedit and the port is open for RDP.

GOT IT!!! The services were disabled. I had to manually turn them to automatic. Checking the box on control panel doesn't seem to work on this desktop. Going to services.msc showed them off.

Thanks to everyone!!!!
