Welcome!

How can we help you?

Before setting up Unattended Access with TeamViewer on a device, you should disable the random password on the target device. Open the Extras tab, go to Options > Security > Random password (for spontaneous access) and choose Disabled (no random password).

Now allow Easy Access for your account:

Assign the target device to your TeamViewer Account. Go to Options > General > Account assignment. Enter your credentials in the dialog box. Now you can access this device without a password. You simply need to be logged in to your account.

Only the account to which the target device has been assigned can access it. However, devices for which easy access is enabled can be shared with other users.

Using this method, you do not have to enter your credentials to start remote control sessions.

The TeamViewer full version and the Host module can be mass-deployed to thousands of devices at the same time – even if you have customized your module. For this purpose, TeamViewer provides so-called Microsoft Installer packages (MSI packages)

For Windows, TeamViewer offers two MSI installers:

• TeamViewer_Host.msi: Installation of the (personalized) TeamViewer Host module
• TeamViewer_Full.msi: Installation of the TeamViewer full version

If you want to install either of the two packages, and you already have a TeamViewer version installed, you need to make sure that the update is supported.

If you already have a TeamViewer account, you can assign the full version as well as TeamViewer Host to it during the installation process.

Trusted Devices provide an additional layer of protection for your TeamViewer account. To ensure its security, you need to authorize devices on which you sign in to your account for the first time.

Log in to your TeamViewer account on the device you want to authorize. Confirm the popup. A device authorization email has been sent to your account’s email address. Click on the link and authorize your device.

As an alternative to the Trusted Device feature, you can enable two-factor authentication for your account. Afterwards, you will no longer receive an authorization email.

• Log in to your TeamViewer account at https://login.teamviewer.com/LogOn.
• Click Edit Profile under your profile name (top right).
