Warning!!!
When the
person assisting you does connect to your system, they will be able
to see what you have open. If you do not want the person to see it,
you will need to close the window or he or she will see it.
You are also able to cancel the
connection at anytime with or without their permission.
When you click on this option, you will have an option to save the
file. Choose a location where you know where to find it. Write down
the file name and save the file.
Once you save the file, A code will appear.
Email the file to the person that is going to help you and give him
or her the code.
After the person connects to your system, you have the option of
having him just view the desktop or allowing him full control of
your system. View only - If he or she can only
view your desktop, then you will have to click on the desktop
for the person. This is safer than giving him or her full
control. However, it will be time consuming because you will
have to click on items or do tasks for the person. Grant control - If you grant control,
then the person can use the system just as if the person is in
the room with you. They will be able to do whatever tasks he or
she needs to do on the system. However, it poses a threat to
your system, so you will need to monitor the person's actions.
If you do not, the person can do anything the person wants to on
the system. To grant control, a window will
appear for you to either accept or deny the request Also if the person can allow the
person to decide to accept User Account Control prompts (if
the user doesn't check this, then the user will have to accept
or not allow any actions every time the helper does something) Click Yes
NOTE: You are able to end the session at anytime with or without his permission. Once you close it out, he or she will not see or access your system. The code you gave him or her will no longer be valid. If you want the person to connect again, you will have to do the entire process over again.
