Enable Use of Saved Credentials with Remote Desktop to All Machines

If you try and save credentials with Remote Desktop but are unable to logon with them, are prompted and receive the following message:
Your system administrator does not allow the use of saved credentials to log on to the remote computer [computer name] because its identity is not fully verified. Please enter new credentials.

Your local security policies are preventing you from using the saved credentials. To Edit these policies:
  1. Hit Start -> Run and type "gpedit.msc".
  2. Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System -> Credentials Delegation.
For each of these security policies:
  • Allow Delegating Default Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication
  • Allow Delegating Default Credentials
  • Allow Delegating Saved Credentials with NTLM-only Server Authentication
  • Allow Delegating Saved Credentials
Do the Following:
    1. Edit the policy.
    2. Set the policy to "Enabled".
    3. Click the Show button.
    4. Enter the string "TERMSRV/*" into the list. You can also enter specific items here in case you don’t want to allow the use of saved credentials with all remote machines.
    5. Click OK twice to close the policy.
