Fix Remote Desktop Error Code 0x104 on Windows 11/10.
Remote Desktop Protocol is a built-in Windows utility that you can use to access computers over the same or different networks without having physical access. This is useful as you are allowed to control the target system using a few clicks from your office or home. There are tons of third-party RDP utilities out there. The built-in RDP might not “really” be the best off of them; most users still prefer to use it. Of course, there are some issues with it as well, like any other software. The one we are going to discuss in this tutorial is the error code 0x104.
This error message pops up when you are trying to connect to the target system on the same or a different network. The error message states “We couldn’t connect to the remote PC because the PC can’t be found. Please provide the fully-qualified name or the IP address of the remote PC, and then try again”. This can be due to your DNS settings, network discovery options or occasionally, the Windows defender firewall privacy settings.
