If you are unable to see the Start button on the PC you are connected to via Remote Desktop Connection (RDC), there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot this issue: 1. Check Display Settings: - Sometimes, the resolution settings on the remote computer may cause the Start button to be pushed off the screen. Try adjusting the display settings to see if the Start button becomes visible. 2. Restart Windows Explorer: - You can try restarting the Windows Explorer process on the remote computer. This can sometimes help resolve issues with the taskbar, including the Start button. - Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager. - In the "Processes" tab, find "Windows Explorer." - Right-click on it and select "Restart." 3. Use Keyboard Shortcuts: - Even if the Start button is not visible, you can still access the Start menu using the Windows key on your keyboard. Press the Windows key to open the Start menu. 4. Check Remote Desktop Connection Settings: - Ensure that your Remote Desktop Connection settings are configured correctly. Make sure you have not disabled certain features that could affect the visibility of the Start button. 5. Update Graphics Drivers: - Outdated or faulty graphics drivers can sometimes cause display issues. Make sure your graphics drivers are up to date. 6. Reconnect to the Remote PC: - If none of the above steps work, try disconnecting and reconnecting to the remote PC. Sometimes, simply reconnecting can resolve display issues. If none of these solutions work, please provide more details about the setup and any specific error messages you are encountering for further assistance.
