Hi Steve,

This is usually caused by one of two issues:

1) There is a blank password for the user you are trying to login with. To
fix this, please add a password for that user and try again.

2) Did you make the user that you are trying to connect a member of the
Remote Desktop Users group? There are two ways to do this.

First way -
Right click My Computer -> Properties - Remote tab
Click on Remote Users button and Add the user you want to have Remote
access.

Second way -
Start - Run - lusgmrg.msc -> Click on Groups.
Double click Remote Desktop Users -> Click Add. Add the user you want to
have Remote access.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
