To enable Remote Desktop Protocol using Command Prompt, follow these steps:
1. Click the Windows Start button
2. Launch a Command Prompt window in Administrator mode
3. Run the following command
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server" /v fDenyTSConnections /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
4. Optionally we add a rule in the firewall to allow access to port 3389 which is used for Remote Desktop
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group="Remote Desktop" new enable=Yes
Once these steps are completed, we restart the computer and RDP will be enabled on the computer.
