VMware WS8 , RDP probem with host

Hello,

i installed WS8 to a W7 x64 Host, after that i cant connect to the host with Remotedesktop,

Then i found out if i start the Host with disabled service "VMware workstation server" i can access the host with rdp.

When i start the service i no longer can connect. There is no error message in Eventlog of windows, there is no error on the Rdp client, it just close. If i enter in the rdp client a wrong password i get again the loginpromt.

What can i do ?

best regards

Andy

Hello,

i did a new install of windows, then it works, after installation of wlan adapter or bluetooth i have ne same problem.

I deinstalled this adapter but the problem still exists. If the service "VMware workstation server" is running i can´t access the host with rdp.

I complete remove this devices and drivers dosent work.

Hello,

i found a solution for this Problem

It seems there is a problem with Antivir FreeAV. Go to expert settings > security > search for someting like "extended processprotection" and disable that option

Then rdp will work.

best regards
