    hello there
    i performed both steps but stil unable to connect to rdp.
    also cannot force gpupdate
    User Policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encountered:

    The processing of Group Policy failed because of lack of network connectivity to a domain controller. This may be a transient condition. A success message would be generated once the machine gets connected to the domain controller and Group Policy has successfully processed. If you do not see a success message for several hours, then contact your administrator.
    please help
