I'm planning a trip soon but still need access to my home PC for work files and some gaming. I've got my laptop with me, and I want to set up remote access to my home computer while I'm away. I've tried using Windows RDP, but I run into issues whenever I try to play games. Are there any third-party tools or software that can help with this situation?

Accessing your home PC for gaming can be tricky since remote connections can lag. Plus, you'll need to set up port forwarding on your router, but it’s not safe to leave ports open. For file access, consider using OneDrive. That way, your files sync and you can access them on the go through Office.com.

You might want to check out services like LogMeIn or RemotePC. They have affordable options for personal use and generally work pretty reliably. Might save you some hassle compared to setting everything up yourself!
