Hi 1stoptech,
Welcome to our community! :)
It seems that you are trying to setup Inbound Rules in order for you to gain access to your computer via RDP. It is working locally right? May you be able to try enabling the Secure HTTP Management?

You may also try to delete all the inbound rules and recreate it. Please share some screenshots too.
