I am running a windows 10 home edition and there is no Remote Desktop option in it. I want to remote in to my Windows 10 machine from linux but cant do that. So I installed RDP wrapper to enable this feature. But it says that it is not supported. Is there any way that i can enable remote desktop without RDP wrapper? I have Remmina installed on my linux. Any one please help me with the issue.

I suggest not to force Windows Home to enable Remote Desktop, especially as it's prohibited by your user license of Windows.
For desktop sharing you could use instead a third-partyVNCbased product, many of whom are free.
Here are some products (in no special order):
- TeamViewerfree for personal use
- TigerVNCfree and open-source
- NoMachinefreemium
- Chrome Remote Desktopfree and browser-based
- AnyDeskfree for personal use
- Remotely
According to The Windows Club - How to use Windows 10 Remote Desktop in Windows Home (RDP)
even when you have the wrapper installed, it will still claim RDP is unsupported… but it should work when accessed remotely.
5Post installation, if you go to Settings > System > Remote Desktop, it will still say that remote desktop is not available. Though, other computers can connect with the Windows Home PC.
