Hi Guys, I shared a query about connecting two PCs to one keyboard and mouse via RDP. Someone recommended using an RDP setup with my work PC, which is in Windows 10 Pro. Since my home PC runs Windows 10 Home and RDP was removed from Home, I’m wondering if there’s a way to access the work PC remotely—maybe by placing it in another room or on the network—and still use my Home PC as the host. Also, I have TeamViewer installed on both machines; does that work locally without needing TeamViewer? Thanks, Sim!

If you use a VPN connected to your organization and can access the work device directly, then yes, you can connect via RDP.

Teamviewer functions well on its own. Even if the machines are close, a KVM switch isn’t necessary. For a single monitor, these options are reasonably affordable.
