Trying to RDP onto a Win7Pro machine and getting this message:

You need to be a member of remote Users Group
If that doesn't work you may need to set GPO for Remote desktop Users
Remote Desktop Users group to his local computer's "allow remote desktop users" permissions.
For the default group policy allow Computer Configuration > Policies > Windows Settings > Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights > Allow Log on through Remote Desktop Services > allowed the Remote Desktop users Group and his account exclusively as well.
Make sure the policy was updated using gpupdate /f and check
Do you have Remote Desktop Enabled to "Allow Connections from computers.."

I had not added that user to the list of users authorized to RDP. Once I added them to the list, it solved the problem.
