I remote desktop to my Window 10 Surface laptop via LAN (to use Outlook from the laptop) allowing me to create send/emails on the Surface laptop via remote desktop from my desktop PC. This has been working fine for 2+ years. Recently the Surface 10 has started ending the remote desktop session randomly perhaps 2 or 3 times per day. The worst parts is that it also terminates all running applications so when I can finally remote desktop back in my Outlook sessions have been lost. This is frustrating as I have lost a lot of drafted emails.
(I’ve setup Outlook to save every 1 minute but even so sometimes I lose the active email I'm working on in Outlook or recently received emails - I've lost lots of work because of this - it is driving me crazy.)
If I try to immediately log back in via RDP I sometimes get:
The number of connections to this computer is limited and all connections are in use right now. Try connecting later or contact your system administrator
I wait and try again and I can log back in but all my applications have been terminated. Perhaps the user session is being logged out and back in – I can’t tell.
Why on earth would all apps be terminated - it's as if the Surface computer user session is logged out and terminates all running apps for absolutely no reason.
There are no failed attempts in System Event Log Security, only forced log off. I noticed over 100 Audit Success security events at same time:
Credential Manager credentials were read.
Subject:
Security ID: DOMAIN\My Name
Account Name: My Name
Account Domain: DOMAIN
Logon ID: 0x1A293A3D8
Read Operation: Enumerate Credentials
This event occurs when a user performs a read operation on stored credentials in Credential Manager.This is then followed with:
An account was logged off.
Logon Type: 3
This event is generated when a logon session is destroyed.
It may be positively correlated with a logon event using the Logon ID value.
Logon IDs are only unique between reboots on the same computer.
Windows System Events at arounds this time shows a number of Errors:

But no-one could help there. This is really driving me crazy as I am losing emails on a daily basis
