Create a bat file with the command Open: "Note Pad" Type in one line : "tscon 1 /dest:console" (without quotes) Save file as: "filename.bat" (file type - All files) That is it. Now instead of clicking on the "X" or "Log Off" to close your remote connection simply double click on this new bat file. This returns your GUI to your local machine. This does however leave your workstation unlocked and open to any physical visitor who chooses to touch it. Set a Screen Saver password to help keep people out and set your timer to 1 minute. Note: In my Windows 8 session I have to right click and "run as administrator" to have it work correctly. Re: LogMeIn Hamachi Connection issues with Windows 8 I figured it out that I have to have a paid version as when you close your RDP or lock your computer it closes the Windows GUI that is required for Hamachi to operate on the Free version. I have found a work around program that functions. LogMeIn Hamachi Connection issues with Windows 8 I have hamachi installed on 4 machines. 2 XP PRO, 1 Windows 7 Home, 1 Windows 8 Pro. All computers have the most recent version as of 1/19/2013. The 2 XP Machines are in one business while the Windows 7 is at my home and the Windows 8 is at my other business. So a total of 3 locations. I can connect just fine between the windows 7 machine and the 2 windows xp machines all the time. So the problem is with the Windows 8 machine. On all but the windows 8 machine it shows my Windows 8 machine as "Grey - no connection" I have tried Port Forwarding, DMZ, static ports with and without Port Forwarding, Disabled all firewalls, Disabled all security software and still get nothing. The only time I get a connection is when I am connected to my Windows 8 machine via Remote Desktop Connection. At that point it turns Green until I disconnect my RDP session. Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks. I have a linksys E900 router on Firmware 1.0 at the Windows 8 Office. Solved
