If you cannot add the server to the collection make sure there are no GPO policies at:

If there are issues:

1. Remove all registry settings at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\Terminal Services and HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server and HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\TermService

2. Set all group policy settings to unconfigured Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Terminal Services or Remote Desktop Services
