Internet-connected Windows computer<\/h3>\n<p>Of course, you will need a good internet connection for accessing the Cloud Desktop. After that, accessing the Cloud Desktop is as easy as accessing a secure website that requires a username and password. Your Cloud Desktop appears in a separate window that looks like your regular desktop. You can minimize and maximize the tabs to go back and forth between your Cloud Desktop and regular desktop.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Latest Microsoft Remote Desktop software<\/h3>\n<p>This is the tool through which you will access your Cloud Desktop, just as web browser is a tool required to browse the internet.<\/p>\n<p>In Mac computers, you can download the software from App Store. All you need to do is type \u201c<b>Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection<\/b>\u201d in the App Store search bar. Don\u2019t worry, we have covered it in our instructions later.<\/p>\n<h3>3.
