When I run the Agent on my work laptop, the alert pops up that Windows Defender Firewall has blocked some features. It also says that the network administrator can unblock it. But, that is not an option. How to proceed?

I am trying to find out if a Remote Utilities product will do this. I want to remote connect to my work laptop from my home computer when both devices are connected to my home network. I want to do this so that I can work on my work laptop at home using the dual monitors, the keyboard and mouse that are hooked up to my home PC.

The work laptop is secured by my employer that prevents me from installing any software on it, edit its registry, or modify most of the Windows settings. I am guessing that may be why the Windows remote desktop connect fails when I try to remote connect to the work laptop from my home PC with both devices connected to my home network.

Does this software have a solution for this task? I am looking for a free version.
