    How do I connect to my server with Remote Desktop?

    When you order a VPS with Windows Server, you can always access it using the console in the control panel. Because the resolution of the console is limited, and to avoid having to first log into the TransIP control panel each time, you can also use a Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connection. You can also use this, for example, to move files from and to the server.

    The 'RDP' feature is not enabled by default for new Windows Server installations due to security reasons and you will need to enable it first. How to do this is explained in the following articles:
