# How to connect to VPS from Windows

| You can remotely connect to your VPS from almost any device, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. We recommend using Microsoft's RDC(Remote Desktop Connection) which is free and works on all major operating systems: Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and Android.



1. All Windows versions have a built-in Remote Desktop Connection app. To open it, click ***Start***, search for ***Remote Desktop Connection***, and then select it

2. Under ***Computer***, enter the IP address you received in the email titled "**New VPS information**".

3. Click ***Show Options***

4. Under ***User name*** enter the username that was sent you in the same email as above (administrator)

Check the ***Allow me to save credentials*** box if you want to save your credentials, so you won’t need to enter the password each time you connect to VPS

5. Click on ***Connect***

6. Enter the password included in the email (You can copy it and paste, *Ctrl+C* and *Ctrl+V*)

In case you skipped step 5, you’ll have another chance to save the credentials for future connections by checking ***Remember Me*** – if you checked the box in 4, ***Remember Me*** will already be preselected

7. Press ***OK***

8. A window that cannot verify the identity of the remote server may pop up. You can check the ***Don't ask me again for connection*** to this computer option and click ***Yes***
