AnyDesk

AnyDesk is remote desktop software that will allow you to control any device remotely, from your own PC. The program supports a multitude of different operating systems, including all versions of Windows, MacOS, Android, iOS, Linux, Raspberry Pi, FreeBSD and ChromeOS. In addition, it is multiplatform, so you can use it from Windows and connect to the desktop of any other platform, or vice versa.

Getting started with AnyDesk is very simple. All you have to do is double-click on the executable and, without the need for installation, in less than ten seconds, the main program window will open. The first thing you can see in this window is your unique address, composed of a string of nine numbers, which you can share with any other user of the application to connect to your computer. Once you share your address code with another user, a pop-up message will warn you that they are trying to take control. For security reasons, you need to confirm this message and, only after this confirmation, the other person will be able to start controlling your desktop remotely.

If you want to control another user's computer, the process is just as simple. In this case, all you would have to do is enter the nine numbers of the other computer's address in the program's address bar, located at the top of the interface. Once you do this, the other device will have to confirm you can take control. Once you get the confirmation, you can start controlling the other computer remotely: your mouse movements will be the mouse movements of the other device, and basically you will be able to do anything you could if you were in front of that PC.

One of the reasons why AnyDesk is so popular is because it makes remote technical support so much easier. Thanks to this small program, with an executable of less than 4MB, you will be able to remotely access any computer, as long as its owner gives you permission. This way you can check if the other computer has any problems, if the drivers are up to date, if it has any virus or spyware, if there are overheating problems, etcetera. Checking that everything is working properly on a computer hundreds of miles away has never been easier.

AnyDesk is an excellent remote desktop app, which is very useful in almost any environment. The most obvious use, of course, is technical support, but it will also allow you to help your friends and family at any time. It will even allow you to carry out fast file transfers between two connected computers. And all this regardless of platform or operating system.
