Windows security Enter your credentials

[Klajdi5001]

Hello friends ! I have two pc. One has windows 7 pro and the other windows 10 home and I want to use remote desktop so I can use my win 7 pro from my win 10 home. The problem is that when I try to connect it says Enter your credential. These credential will be used to connect at my win 7 pro. I tried every password but nothing. the username that appears there is my email address cause I use that as my login in windows 10 after the last update. I have tried different usernames still nothing

You have to enter the credentials in the following format:
Windows7PCName\theuseryouwishtologinwith
Password.

Try setting a password for the user on the Windows 7 pc.

I set a password and I tried still nothing.
It really sucks but I think It dont have a solution
It says The credentials didnt work please try new credentials

If you are entering them correctly then it should work.
Have you enabled Remote Desktop access on the Windows 7 system for the user that you are trying to log in with?
Right Click Computer>Properties>Remote Settings>Select user

Yeah I know it should work but it dont, and I cant figure out why. The win 7 pc has enabled the remote deskop. is at allow connections from every computer running any version of remote desktop (less secure)

But did you check which users have access?
If you only have the one user on the Windows 7 system, then it automatically has access.

I only has one user at my win 7. I will try to create another user and allow remote desktop to it too, just to give a try.

Hmmm.
It seems that you've covered all bases, so it just boils down to entering the credentials correctly.
As a last try, try entering just the username and password of the Windows 7 pc.

Do you have any idea that why it dont work on my main account but only at the account that I created ?

Perhaps there is a group policy/local policy in place preventing that user from using Remote Desktop.
I do know this is common in corporate domains.

I understand that but it is a home pc and no gpo here I searched my local policies and they are alright the administrators account can be remotly accesss and in the deny remote access the list is blank.

My friend I found it. When this account was created was with the user as the nameof the account , not as my actual username so when I tried as user it work. Thank u for your time
