Ok, I have the following problem that has been driving me nuts: I have 2 laptops [A (Windows 7) and B (Windows 10)] and a phone [P (Android)].

So I can access both laptops with P no problem.

A can access B,
but B cannot access A even with the right PIN and everything. It only shares the screen by accessing A with my phone first to generate the sharing code. But not directly by just selecting the remote computer. WTF?!!
