What Is A Remote Desktop Connection
For a clearer view of all this, imagine a situation when you have to
meet a tight deadline and you can't do all the work at your office,
but you need to work on your office computer. Wouldn't it be great
if you could stay at your home but still work on your office
computer? That is, without physically taking your office computer
with you.
There is one more thing we'd like to mention: up until now we've
talked about remote desktop connections between two computers.
However, you can also establish remote desktop connections
between other kinds of devices too. With a twist: the host device
must be a computer. But the client doesn't have to be. The device
you use to access the host computer remotely can be a
smartphone, a tablet, a hybrid device, etc. For instance, you can
use your Microsoft Lumia smartphone to access your home
computer. But for that to work, you'll need an app that knows how
to make remote desktop connections. And this is the guide you
should read for that: How to Use Microsoft's Remote Desktop App
for Windows Phone.
