Cause

Windows 8.1 is in extended support but has some limitations. We recommend updating to Windows 10 Pro as permanent fix.

Workaround

UDP connectivity in this version of the RDP (remote desktop protocol) can be disabled by adding the following registry key…

  • Open RegEdit from the Command Prompt
  • Browse to: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services\Client
  • Add REG_DWord (32bit) “”fClientDisableUDP“
  • Set the value to 1

Please note: If this FAQ is applied to a private home computer, Scomis is unable to provide support.
