I am having the same issues as well, my girlfriend's laptop can't be accessed because of me trying to get access to her laptop I used the microsoft remote desktop and I have her permission, the reason for doing it is because we have a project on our school which I need a windows to do something since she is far from my home and it was not successful on syncing but the time that the laptop got to sleep and opened it, she immediately panicked since it needs a usb to get into the system. As of now she is eating right now and hope this method will work.
