WIndows 7 remote desktop issue

When I VPN to work and I try to remote desktop it errors out with"remote desktop connection has stopped working". I fixed it before I think by registering the mstsc file or something like that but I cant find the fix anymore. Anybody have a fix?

After connecting to VPN. Please do ping to the remote desktop IP . and see if its replying, then try remote desktop
we need to check if VPN connection successful and you are able to reach to the remote computer.

Is this happening when you initiate the session, or while you are using it already?

Try disabling remote audio. That may do the trick.

Also, check in the Event Viewer. You should be able to find entries for when things happen. It should name a module that was involved. If I recall properly, having Ogg Vorbis installed can cause issues if you remote audio enabled.
