Remotely Enable Remote Desktop Windows 10
Step 1: Open firewall ports in Windows firewall There is no native way to change the settings of a remote Windows firewall. However, you can use PsExec from SysInternals to disable it or change some rules. If you download the app and drop it into your c:\ drive, you can run this command and get command line access for that remote box.
c:\psexec \\remote_machine_name cmd
Once you have that command line open, you can run this command to disable the firewall:
netsh advfirewall set currentprofile state off
Alternatively you can run this command to allow only Remote Desktop while still leaving the rest of the firewall as is:
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group=”remote desktop” new enable=Yes
