How do I get Remote Desktop to work?

Hello everyone,,
I have a windows 10 home desktop, a windows 10 pro laptop, as well as a windows 8.1 phone and ipad. I can't for the life of me get remote desktop to work with any combination of the devices; I enabled remote desktop in system settings, as far as I can tell both computers have remote desktop allowed in the firewall, and I am connecting using their private ip addresses, but ultimately I can't connect. Any ideas? When I try to connect via phone I get the error 0x704.

Wrong site. You better try a Windows forum. This is a place for home-automation.

Try this document on VNC I have Installed it on a headless RPi 3B+ and Windows 10 Home laptop.

It works like a charm. Realvnc is available for multi OS.

Today I did some more digging into Remote Destop and/or VNC and came at this posting. https://github.com/gitbls/RPiVNCHowTo

Much success with it.
