I only ever use this PC remotely except for very rare occasions when I have to do something locally, so it is normally headless (no screen, no mouse, no keyboard).Īfter various tests I found that leaving the keyboard attached to the machine is enough to fix this problem here. If I waited a while, I could do it via wake-on LAN, but more than one reconnection attempt was usually needed as it takes

If I tried to reconnect immediately, I could only do so if I restarted using the physical power on/wake button. The timer or action can be set to log off, restart, shut down, power off, lock, standby, run a program, stop multimedia playback, and Wake-On-LAN. My issue was that if I use RDC to connect to a remote desktop running Win10, the Win10 machine would go to sleep after a couple of minutes regardless of any settings I made - power settings, terminal server settings/policies, manual changes to the registry. Not sure we have the same problem, but for anyone in a similar situation as me the following may help.
