Q: Why would I want to disable these?

Me: Hackers can use them to access your computer

Q: Why would I want to enable these then?

Me: To have access to your computer by far away or request help from someone far away from you.


Steps:

Right click "My Computer" and then press "Advanced system settings"

Go to "Remote" tab.

Now you can choose if you want to enable remote desktop and/or remote assistance!

Can you use it to access your desktop while like you're on a holiday far away?

Yes. That's why it comes with Windows.
