    I have no issue connecting with my win 10 machine using TeamViewer. Trying to send files from win7 to win10 directly through the home network does not work because I have no idea what password it's looking for.
    When I try using Remote Desktop from my chrome tablet to win10 I don't know what password it's looking for. I've tried all kinds of passwords including those in my form filler. This is nuts.

    In order to access Windows 10, you need the Windows 10 password.

    My password is the live password but that doesn't work. Also I enter windows without a login.

    Setup a password on Windows 10, (even a simple one would work), then try again.

    I will try. I recall needing a password for remote desktop to work but I never needed one just to work within my home network. I'll try some more.
