Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Search (or if you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, and then click Search), enter allow remote in the search box, and then tap or click Allow remote access to your computer.   You might be asked for an admin password or to confirm your choice.

In the System Properties dialog box, under Remote Desktop, make sure the Allow remote connections to this computer button is selected. For more info about these options, see the "What types of Remote Desktop connections should I allow?" question in this topic.

Tap or click Select Users, and in the Remote Desktop Users dialog box, tap or click Add.

In the Select Users or Groups dialog box, do the following:

tap or click Locations, and then select the location you want to search.

In Enter the object names to select, enter the name or user name of the person that you want to add, and then tap or click OK. The name will be added to the list of people who can connect to this PC.

Look under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings to see the full PC name.

Turn off sleep and hibernation on the remote PC. You'll need to make sure the settings for sleep and hibernation are set to Never.
