Windows 10 remote desktop session logs off

Solution 1:

I have tried closing RDP on Windows 10 virtual machine, and I cannot duplicate your problem.

Perhaps the difference is that I have applied this registry fix because I was getting the message of "the connection cannot proceed because authentication is not enabled" :

In Windows 10 Microsoft changed RDP’s defaults. They modified the default for SecurityLayer from 0 to 2. Even if you go into the user interface and disable: “Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication (recommended)” Still doesn’t change that value to a 2.

Simple fix:

• Open RegEdit
• Navigate to this Key:
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp
• Change SecurityLayer to a zero
• Reboot and done

Solution 2:

Disable the "Session Time Limits" policies on the Windows 10 PC at home.

1. Open gpedit.msc
2. Navigate to:
   Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
3. Disable any active policies.
4. Navigate to:
   User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Remote Desktop Services\Remote Desktop Session Host\Session Time Limits
5. Disable any active policies.
6. Reboot the computer.
