AnyDesk is software for remote desktops that lets you handle any gadget from your PC. Many operating systems can run the program, such as all versions of Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, Linux, Raspberry Pi, FreeBSD, and ChromeOS. Also, it works on more than one platform, so you can use it on Windows and connect to any other platform’s PC, or the other way around.
It is very easy to get started with AnyDesk. You only need to double-click on the file to open the main program window. It will do this in less than ten seconds, without the need to install anything. Your unique nine-number address is the first thing you can see in this window. You can give this address to any other program user so they can connect to your computer. If you give someone else your address code, a message will pop up to let you know that they are trying to take over. For security reasons, you need to accept this message. Once you do, the other person will be able to start remotely controlling your desktop.
It’s also easy to take control of someone else’s machine. If this is the case, all you would need to do is type the nine-digit address of the other computer into the address bar at the top of the program. It will then check to see if you are allowed to take control. Once you get proof, you can start controlling the other computer from afar. Your mouse moves will match those of the other device’s mouse, and you can do pretty much everything you could do on that PC if you were there.
One reason AnyDesk is so famous is that it makes it easy to provide technical help from afar. With this small program (less than 4MB), you can connect to any computer from afar as long as the owner of that computer lets you. You can then check to see if the other computer is glitchy, if its drivers are up to date, if it has any bugs or spyware, if it’s getting too hot, and so on. It’s never been easier to make sure everything is working right on a computer that’s hundreds of miles away.
