Your Windows 10’s Desktop Central supports dual modes of viewing the remote computers. One is through the ActiveX viewer, while the other through the Java Viewer. The remote computer, in the case of Java Viewer, is visible to the users who use the Java Technology. However, the ActiveX viewer uses the browser’s ActiveX components. So, the browser from where you have to establish the connection should also have the ActiveX control enabled.
As a general example, I have taken Internet Explorer and explained steps of allowing the ActiveX controls in it.

ActiveX control is a tiny program for the Internet Explorer and refers as an add-on. It is like other programs, but not restricted from doing bad things with your system. These controls also monitor the personal browsing habits, generate random pop-ups, even log keystrokes and passwords and many other petty things.
The ActiveX controls the only function in Internet Explorer. Other browsers like Chrome, Opera, Firefox, etc. use other browser plugins. A few experts recommend that you should avoid installing the ActiveX controls unless you trust their source. A few ActiveX controls like the Flash Player ActiveX controls are quite ordinary ones, but still if you believe that there might be some security concerns, then avoid installing these controls.
