Fix Remote Desktop Can't Find The Computer

Description

How to Fix the Error: Remote Desktop Can’t Find the Computer on Windows?
In most cases, this error means that there are problems with your DNS servers (or DNS records on them), because of which your computer can’t resolve the specified host name.

First of all, make sure that you have specified the correct hostname of the remote RDP host in the Computer field.

Try to connect to the RDP server by IP address instead of the DNS name. If the RDP connection by an IP address is established correctly, this means that the issue is related to DNS.

Possible reasons for the DNS problem are:

Incorrect IP addresses of DNS servers are specified in the settings of your Windows computer;
On your computer, the host file contains incorrect entries for the RDP host names;
Your DNS servers are not available (the access is blocked by a firewall or server is down);
There is no DNS record in the DNS zone for your RDP host or the record points to the wrong IP address.
Try to find out if your DNS server knows the FQDN of the RDP server you are connecting to (%RDPHostName%)
