Since installing Avast Premier I can’t access my office with Remote Desktop. Any suggestions?
Make the correct settings in the firewall.

I’m having the same problem; the linked article doesn’t seem helpful. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
It does work if you set the rules correctly.
I couldn’t figure out how to get the “New application rule” mentioned in the FAQ to work, but FWIW I found doing this did fix the problem for me:
Go to Settings → Components → Firewall customize → Policies → Packet rules… → Add a new row and enter the following:
Enabled: checked
Name: Remote desktop out
Action: Allow
Protocol: TCP (6)
Direction: Out
Address:
Local Port:
Remote Port: 3389
ICMP Type:
Profile: All
