AppyPappy I understand what you said, but I do not grok the how. And I am ok with that.
Actually am thinking of putting a desktop at the office in a bit.
You use The Windows Desktop app(usually under Accessories) to “take over” the desktop after previously checking that the desktop allows Remote Desktop. It’s a lot easier than trying to remember what is where.
Laptops tend to take a beating so I don’t invest much in them. Plus I never put a laptop in my lap. It’s always on a table/desk.
