Allow remote support – TeamViewer on Windows

So that it-tects can help directly on your computer, a remote session is started with TeamViewer. This is only done in agreement with it-tects, usually during a phone call.

Steps

  1. Open the link from it-tects or download TeamViewer QuickSupport from teamviewer.com.

  2. Run the downloaded file. No installation is needed. If Windows asks whether the app may make changes, confirm with Yes.

  3. Tell it-tects the ID and password shown, or enter the code it-tects gives you.

  4. Confirm the connection request with Allow.

To end the session, close the TeamViewer window. Access is then no longer possible.

Important: Never give access to strangers. If someone calls claiming to be support from Microsoft, the bank or it-tects without an existing ticket, hang up and call it-tects back using the known number.
