Prompted to enter password displayed on host computer

I currently have two devices linked to my account, my office PC and my laptop. I've always been able to access them easily by simply logging in and connecting, but today I was met with 'please enter the password that is displayed on your partner's computer' while trying to log on to my office PC. Rather infuriating, as the whole point is that I can connect remotely without pestering my coworkers or when no-one is in the office. Any ideas why this happened and how to prevent it from happening again? I haven't touched any of the settings

  • I don't understand this either, and it happens frequently.  Makes no sense as when I'm away from home I can't actually see my computer!

  • I have exactly the same issue, and I agree this feature is absolutely **bleep**.  Has anyone had any luck at solving this problem?
