如果您喜欢将Mac计算机用作主机，但仍需要Windows来执行偶尔的任务，那么设置远程桌面以便您可以从Mac远程连接到 PC 可能会很有用。
幸运的是，微软(Microsoft)为远程桌面提供了在Mac和 PC 之间正常工作的所有部件。在本文中，我将引导您完成在Mac和 PC 上设置远程桌面的步骤。
(Setup Remote Desktop Assistant)在 PC 上设置远程桌面助手
您需要做的第一件事是在您的 PC 上设置远程桌面助手。(remote desktop assistant)该程序基本上将启用远程桌面，打开防火墙中的端口并配置远程桌面所需的任何其他内容。
当您下载并运行该文件时，它会询问您是否允许连接到Internet以下载所有设置文件。批准并安装程序后，请继续运行它。
这是一个非常简单直接的程序。您只需单击“开始”(Get Started)，它将更改您 PC 上的一些设置，以便计算机可以接受传入的远程桌面连接。完成后，它将向您显示摘要，并让您选择扫描 QR 码（如果使用 iPad 等移动设备）、将信息复制到剪贴板或将连接保存为文件，您可以在另一个文件中打开该文件电脑。
获得所需信息后，请继续关闭窗口。值得注意的是，如果您想从本地网络外部连接到您的计算机，则必须手动打开路由器上的端口并将这些端口转发到您的 PC。您还必须设置动态 DNS(setup dynamic DNS)，以便您可以使用DNS名称而不是经常更改的公共 IP 地址进行连接。这肯定更复杂，但完全可行。
在 Mac 上设置远程桌面
现在您已经在 PC 端进行了设置，是时候在您的Mac上安装远程桌面了。您需要前往App Store并搜索远程桌面。第一个应用程序应该是Microsoft Remote Desktop。
单击“获取”(Get)按钮，下载后单击“打开(Open)”按钮。主屏幕顶部只有几个按钮：New、Start、Edit、Preferences和Remote Resources。
单击新建(New)按钮以启动新的远程桌面连接。在这里，您将输入设置远程桌面助手时在 PC 上列出的所有信息。
为您的连接命名，在 PC 名称下输入 IP 地址，根据需要配置网关，然后输入远程 PC 的凭据。请注意，PC 需要有一个带密码的帐户才能使所有这些工作。如果该帐户没有密码，您将无法连接。
此外，要保存连接，您只需按屏幕左上角的红色 X 按钮。出于某种奇怪的原因，对话框上没有添加(Add)和保存(Save)按钮。但是，单击 X 后，您将看到列出的新连接。
单击它，然后单击开始(Start)以连接到远程 PC。您可能会看到有关证书未验证的警告，这没关系。只需(OK. Just)单击继续(Continue)进行连接。
就是这样！片刻之后，PC 桌面应该会全屏加载到您的Mac上。如果您需要对连接进行任何更改，只需选择它并单击Edit。此外，您可以单击首选项(Preferences)添加网关或手动指定显示分辨率。如果您有任何问题，请在评论中告诉我们。享受！

How to Control a Windows PC using Remote Desktop for Mac
If you like to use your Mac computer as your main machine, but ѕtill need Windows for occasionаl tasks, then it might be useful to setup remote desktop so thаt you can connect from your Mac tо your PС remotely.
Luckily, Microsoft provides all the parts for remote desktop to work properly between a Mac and a PC. In this article, I’m going to walk you through the steps for setting up remote desktop on a Mac and PC.
Setup Remote Desktop Assistant on PC
The first thing you’ll need to do is setup remote desktop assistant on your PC. This program will basically enable remote desktop, open the ports in the firewall and configure anything else that is required for remote desktop.
When you download the file and run it, it’ll ask for your permission to connect to the Internet to download all the setup files. Once you approve that and the program is installed, go ahead and run it.
It’s a very simple and straight-forward program. All you do is click Get Started and it will change a few settings on your PC so that the computer can accept incoming remote desktop connections. Once completed, it will show you a summary and give you the option to scan a QR code (if using a mobile device like an iPad), copy the info to the clipboard or save the connection as a file, which you can open on another computer.
Once you have the info you need, go ahead and close the window. It’s worth noting that if you want to connect to your computer from outside the local network, you’ll have to open the ports on the router manually and forward those ports to your PC. You’ll also have to setup dynamic DNS so that you can use a DNS name rather than your public IP address, which changes often, to connect. It’s definitely more complicated, but totally doable.
Setup Remote Desktop on Mac
Now that you are setup on the PC side, it’s time to get remote desktop installed on your Mac. You’ll want to go to the App Store and search for remote desktop. The first app should be Microsoft Remote Desktop.
Click the Get button and once downloaded, click the Open button. The main screen is just a couple of buttons across the top: New, Start, Edit, Preferences and Remote Resources.
Click on the New button to start a new remote desktop connection. Here you will type in all the information that was listed out on the PC when you setup remote desktop assistant.
Give your connection a name, type in the IP address under PC Name, configure a gateway if required and then type in the credentials for the remote PC. Note that the PC will need to have an account with a password in order for all this to work. If the account doesn’t have a password, you won’t be able to connect.
Also, to save the connection, you just have to press the red X button at the top left of the screen. For some odd reason, there is no Add and Save button on the dialog. However, once you click the X, you’ll see the new connection listed.
Click on it and then click on Start to connect to the remote PC. You’ll probably see a warning about the certificate not being verified, which is OK. Just click Continue to make the connection.
That’s about it! After a few moments, the PC desktop should load full screen onto your Mac. If you need to make any changes to the connection, just select it and click on Edit. Also, you can click on Preferences to add a gateway or to specify the display resolution manually. If you have any trouble, let us know in the comments. Enjoy!
Bonus: If you use Google Chrome a lot, you might be interested in knowing that you can access any PC (Linux, Mac, Windows) remotely using just the Chrome Remote Desktop extension from Google.
