RDP Changer 
          By default, Remote Desktop  listens on port 3389. If you want to change  this port, there is no easy  way to do it in Windows. You might have to  tweak with the registry from
 “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TerminalServer\WinStations\RDP-Tcp”   (via regedit)  in order to change your remote desktop port. Lets say  you have  different computers using the remote desktop connection but  require them  to be running on different ports. Or require configuring  firewalls for  which you will need to know the Remote Desktop port. This  may be so  because the Remote Desktop port can be used without opening  up any extra  ports when working on firewalls. RDP Changer   is a simple application that allows instantly changing the Remote   Desktop port. Just launch RDP Changer, enter a port name and click Change.
You will require rebooting your system for the changes to take effect. The listening port for Remote Desktop can also be changed temporarily by the following method: log in to the remote desktop, type the name or IP of the remote computer, add a colon and the desired port (for example, Computer1:3390). However, for additional security, firewall configuration and other purposes, the default port can be changed with the help of RDP Changer. You can revert to 3389 again either by manually entering it or choosing the Default option in RDP Changer.
