You just upgraded your workstation to Internet Explorer 10. But when you try to remote into your SBS 2008 server, you get a “VBScript: Remote Desktop Connection” error message, like this:
The detail error message reads: The wizard cannot configure Remote Desktop Connection settings. Make sure that the client version of Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) 6.0 or later is installed on this computer.
Solution:
The solution is so easy, you probably will miss it. After clicking OK on the error window, click on the Compatibility switch icon at the top of your IE10 window.
Your RWW login screen will refresh. Log back in and try connecting to the remote computer, and it should be working as expected.
N.B. It probably is incorrect to call this a “solution”, as it is more of a “workaround”. It’s not a bug with IE10, it’s that the decision was made that it’s acceptable to have a “workaround” rather than to fix IIS to flag compat mode from the server.
