By default RDP is enabled on our windows servers - this can be edited if you would like. This guide will show you how to connect via RDP. 

|| Please ensure that you have purchased a [VPS](https://volthosting.co.uk/vpshosting.html) or [dedicated server](https://billing.volthosting.co.uk/index.php?rp=/store/dedicated-servers) hosting from us before attempting to login.
