[QUOTE="patrick85, post: 1076714, member: 94558"] Well regarding this I heard that even if you have windows home edition hackers can install remote desktop capability hiddenly and use it even on win home editions. In fact I wonder how it really is with the remote desktop on home and pro edition as even now on win 11 home I can see this windows and when I put in some address and hit connect it tries to connect.
