Remote installation of windows, how it can be done and who needs it. Now, first things first, I have a client, and his relatives are in another small town. He doesn’t want to lend a computer to local specialists, so he asked for help. Since it needed to be done urgently, I had to use remote mode. Fortunately, we purchased a serial key; by the way, now Windows 10 Professional + Office 2021 Pro Plus can be found inexpensively. And the Internet where everything will happen is good in speed.

The old system did work poorly from time to time. I logged in remotely, first of all, I determined the model of the motherboard using a program in the system. Although it has been in the system unit for about 10 years, UEFI mode is supported. This means that you can boot from a flash drive without dancing with a tambourine.

I downloaded an image of a clean Windows 10 Pro, how to do it, find the program on the Internet. The steps are simple. Then I recorded it onto a USB drive u ... Read more »

Remote setup of video surveillance, how it can be done or how to save time for yourself and the client. At the moment, not everyone likes to stand in Kyiv traffic jams, and many will agree with this. Or going to another city if you have a normal Internet connection is crazy, because now there is more than one program for remote access. The most famous are  TeamViewer and Ammy Admin , but for managing Macs and PCs there is also the cool and convenient  AnyDesk .

Popular programs for remote assistance services include:  Teamviewer ,  Ammyy Admin  and  AnyDesk . And now about each in order, pros and cons. 

Let's start with TeamViewer, probably the most famous due to the fact that it was one of the first to appear, and there was quite a lot of advertising. The advantage is that it is initially installed for most users. The downside for those who use it frequently is that the number of sessions is limited in time. We can say that it is not cheap, an annual license for one computer controls another costs about 8,000 hryvnia, which for our market you must agree is not cheap. 

Anidesk is also not new to this business. The software is quite popular. On the plus side, the free version i ... Read more »

Remote customer assistance is not only a teamviewer, which is what this article is about. Just today an old friend called and asked me to set up a router. By the way, he approached the choice correctly; he took out an ancient working one with a 5-volt power supply from the storage room. That is, he can connect it to a standard reinforced power bank, and the provider installed a generator in the attic of the house and starts it in the absence of light. 

Obviously, I had to reset the router to factory settings. Then, in telephone mode, we connected via the laptop’s Wi-Fi, since the network was open without a password. And the laptop is new without a network card, that is, you can’t plug in a twisted pair cable. We wrote down the settings that the provider gave in the contract, set a password for Wi-Fi. We tried it and it worked. Then I got down to business for fine tuning.

The situation is even more complicated when the provi ... Read more »
