AnyViewer Help Guides

As a professional and overall remote access software, AnyViewer offers various ways for remote computer access. When you want to access your own unattended computer, we suggest you use one-click access or a security code. When you need to offer remote assistance to your clients or friends, you can request remote control and wait for your request to be allowed.

The following will introduce four remote connection methods to satisfy different demands.

Way 1.  Get remote access to the computer with one click [unattended]

Step 2. On the device that you need to start remote access, click Device and click the to-be-controlled computer.

Step 3. Then, click One-click control and you can take full control of the remote computer.

Notes:

• On the to-be-controlled device, one-click connection to assigned devices should be enabled. 
• The two devices should be logged into and assigned to the same AnyViewer account. 

Way 2. Remote access to a computer via security code [unattended]

Step 3. Choose Input security code and enter the permanent security code and click OK. Then, you can get remote access to the PC.
