Remote Desktop Window 7 Professional options missing

My computer is running Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit Logged in as Administrator

The 'Remote desktop' option to "allow connections..." is not present under Control PanelSystem and SecuritySystem under the remote tab

My issue is the same as can be seen here however my issue is not resolved from the info on this link.

According to my research this option should be available in Windows 7 Professional

I also have seen this question on Super User but the solution there is not an option as I can not delete SP1. Windows was installed with it.

I even tried enabling through the registry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlTerminal Server 

fDenyTSConnections DWORD Value set to '0'

But still not working

Why would this option be missing and what can I do to solve my problem.

This question has answers that may be good or bad; the system has marked it active so that they can be reviewed.

Are you logged in as the administrator? Where did you go to look for this option? (To rule out that you're simply looking in the wrong place). Do you have the necessary windows feature installed? (Go to control panel -> Turn Windows Features on/Off to determine if it's installed).

None of those screens show the screen that would have 'allow connections...' screen. Which screen is it?

here is a perfect depiction sevenforums.com/network-sharing/… The prooblem discussed in this link however is also not applicable to me as I am running a version of windows that should have this option.

you should probably update your question with more details. It was probably downvoted because you don't provide enough detail to solve your issue (as our comments have borne out).

If you have your computer setup to log on automatically when you boot up remote desktop will not be available until you change this behavior

Thanks but that isn't the cause of the problem. I'm starting to think a re-install of windows is my only option
