ERROR_CTX_WINSTATIONS_DISABLED

ERROR_CTX_WINSTATIONS_DISABLED means the target currently does not accept Remote Desktop logons. This can result from the Remote Desktop setting, an effective GPO, a listener/service state, or a temporary administrative restriction.

What to check

Verify that the host is configured to allow remote connections and that the Remote Desktop Services service is running.
Use Resultant Set of Policy to check whether a domain policy disables remote connections or listener settings.
Confirm firewall and network reachability only after establishing that the host is intended to accept RDP sessions.
