Remote desktop into Windows 8 RP with Microsoft Account fails

0
0

When attempting to remote desktop into one of my Windows 8 RP computers from another Windows 8 RP computer mstsc.exe prompts for credentials. Entering the correct credentials for a Microsoft Account on the remote computer fails: "Your credentials did not work"

I set up another account on the remote computer, this one a local account. I can log in with this account.

I can also log in to the Microsoft Account if the RDP client does not prompt for the credentials before the terminal service session starts. IE, if it connects to the remote computer first,then I log in. This works on older mstsc.exe's and iTap RDP (an iOS RDP client) that allows me to connect without sending credentials.

Is there a fix? Is there a way to force newer mstsc.exe's to connect without sending credentials first?

Thanks,

Mike Ellis
