You may be able to run the Windows Update and uninstall any updates that may have affected it...I never like to use automatic updates on a server - they are not very good at watching out for this sort of thing at Microsoft.

Also check under Services if &quot;Terminal Server&quot; service is set to Auto and is running.<br />
<br />
I also remember one case where ZoneAlarm was the conflicting piece of software, which rendered remote desktop unusable after update.

I was asked by my boss to fix an issue. After the latest updates from Microsoft were installed on our Windows 2008 Server R2 the Remote desktop connection stopped working.<br />
<br />
Any time I try to connect to it I get : <br />
==========================<wbr />==========<wbr />===<br />
Remote Desktop can't connect to the remote computer for one of the following reasons:<br />
<br />
1) Remote Access to the server is not enabled<br />
2) The remote computer is turned off<br />
3) The remote computer is not available on the network<br />
==========================<wbr />==========<wbr />===<br />
<br />
None of those conditions are true. What can I try? Did you hear of an issue like this lately?
