I am trying to use remote destop on my Win XP pro system. My problem is that it doesn't show up under start/programs/accessories/communications. I tried downloading and installing from Microsoft.com., but I get a message saying it cannot install because remote desktop is a part of the operating system. Can anyone tell me how to access remoted desktop?

Remote desktop server settings can be found under System Properties > Remote. The RDP client is in Accessories > Communication or you can use the Web based client.
The structure of TR, particularly that button for posting comments to articles, does nothing to guide posters to the correct forum.
This is a problem that has been addressed in several discussions, with no resolution in sight. TR seems to be reluctant to make the site "more complex."
What is unprofessional about politely informing someone who is not aware of how things may work the correct way to proceed?
It is assumed that the posted did not know the proper place for posting questions. This is backed up by the fact that it isn't the proper place to post questions. Nothing high and mighty about that. Nothing unprofessional about that. Nothing unwelcoming about that.
If you go back, it was your jumping on this that wasn't professional. You didn't understand WHY this was said, so you started to insult someone who was HELPING someone else.
Not a biggie, as everyone makes mistakes. Even I have, or so I am told.
Step back, reread the posts as they were intended and relax.
If you're asking for technical help, please be sure to include all your system info, including operating system, model number, and any other specifics related to the problem.
