Set up your PC to accept remote connections. (If you skip this step, you can't connect to your PC.) Add a Remote Desktop connection or a remote resource.
2. LogMeIn Free allows you to conveniently remotely control a Mac computer running OS X from Windows through its web interface or the Firefox plugin. First you will need to create a free account, then login from the Mac computer and click the Add Computer button to download the LogMeIn Installer.

Step One: Go to the Mac App Store and download the “Microsoft Remote Desktop 10” app. Although the app is free you will still need an Apple ID to download it. Alternatively you could download it directly from the Internet from sites like this, however to make sure you get the latest and most secure version it is best to go to the Mac App.
