Win 11 Home remote

[chubster1302]

Am i right in saying that a pc running Win 11 Home can remote into a pc running either win 10 or 11 Pro?

Yes this should work!

I have used home versions of windows since xp and afaik all have been able to remote into eachother with the microsoft inbuilt tool

I haven't used windows for a few years now though (for more than a few minutes or for more than using a web browser) and whenever I do I am filled with rage so sadly I can't be too much more help haha.

A PC running 'Home' can be a Remote Desktop client but not a host. A 'Pro' PC can be either. So only the PC you want to control remotely must be a 'Pro' version.

Perfect, thank you.

 A definite yes.  I have run these setups for years at work and still use them at home. My Win 10/11 Pro machines have the Remote Server option enabled and I can connect to them via my non-Pro laptops.

Having seen many saying you must have Pro on both and even telling me I'm wrong I tend add this link for proof.  I can only guess they tried it without enabling the remote option and base their comments on ther lack of success!
