Do not send the recovery code unencrypted via email since this could give an unauthorized user access to it. After deactivating two-factor authentication with the recovery code, you can always reactivate two-factor authentication for your user.
The first step towards remotely controlling one device from another is to install the TeamViewer full version on the controlling and another full version or a QuickSupport module (no installation necessary) on the controlled device.
With both ends of the connection using the full version of TeamViewer, the partner that wants to remotely control a device types in the TeamViewer ID and Password of the device they want to control into their own TeamViewer.
--> A TeamViewer ID is unique, will always stay the same for every device and can be used to contact that device from any other instance of TeamViewer. Passwords are generated randomly with every start of TeamViewer.
If you have decided to go with the QuickSupport module that requires a session code on the remote side of the connection, enter the respective session code your partner provides you with into the module and the remote session will be established:
2. Invite a partner to the session by providing them with the session code. You can do that, e.g., via email by clicking Invite in the created session contact that will now be displayed in your Computers & Contacts list.
I download a Teamviewer 11 ver. 11.1.8373.0 today in a freshly installed O.S Windows XP spk 2. And after that, I installed it. But sad to say I wasn't able to use it because as I open the newly installed Teamviewer 11, there is an error stating: "entry point not found the procedure entry point GetLogicalProcessorInformation could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.DLL". What is it mean?
The QuickSupport module needs to be downloaded first, into your Downloads folder for example, before you can run it. It wouldn't be possible to run it without downloading it first. However, the advantage of the QuickSupport module is that it doesn't need to be installed, in the way a regular program is installed. It simply runs on the spot, without installing any files into your Program Files directory. Once you're finished with it, you can just delete the file if you wish, without needing to uninstall anything.
Or, if you are likely to want to connect to the same computer again in the future, you can keep the file and use it the next time. There's no need to re-download the same file every time you wish to connect to that computer.

The "connect.teamviewer.com" method seems a little easier to initiate with an end user, but, if the "get.teamviewer.com" method provides additional features/functionality during the remote session, I'll go ahead and generate a session key on my end and have the end user connect to "get.teamviewer.com"
Hola, tengo un problema y os agradeceria si me pudierais ayudar, he instalado teamviewer quick supprot en un tv box S10 con amlogic s912 y android 7.1, la aplicacion arranca bien y me asigna el ID, pero cuando intento conectarme a el desde una tablet samsumg con teamviewer instalado para coger control remoto del tv box me sale el mensaje de que el dispositivo no es compatible con la pantalla compartida.
The relevance has been fixed so that it is only applicable on x64bit and we are looking to add 32bit teamviewer as soon as possible since it is a pretty common application, that said, we do prefer 64bit software as the default when available.
Since last year I was provided a corporate license to my account for Team Viewer with dual factor authentication enabled (not the one I am writing this message from). I have bee using it for many months without issues, but in the last days I had to logout from the Team Viewer app on Windows, at the same time I changed my mobile phone with MS Authenticator and, again at the same time I forgot the Team Viewer password I set the first time.
The problem is that I cannot get it if on the phone the TeamViewer account is no more present inside the MS Authenticator and, at the same time, I cannot add it back as I cannot provide another QR code if I am not logged into the TeamViewer website.
I have the same issue, but with a free personal TeamViewer account. I get the password reset, set a new password, & then am asked for a security code that I never get. How can I get my problem account completely deleted so I can set it up again without the 2nd verification step?
I have an issue that's driving me mad. I have successfully been able to connect my teamviewer session from a browser uri to my required remote resource. I achieve this by using the following uri command in the browser address bar (in reality, it's a button click in html):
If the connection isn't yet open, the teamviewer session is initiated and the window pops up in my second monitor as required. All good. However, if the session is already running and I initiate a subsequent request to the same uri, a new session is spawned and I'm left with multiple, duplicate session windows. This is both resource hungry in the long run and undesirable in practice.
Ideally, I'd like the process to function such that a new session is called if it does not have the given id already running. If an earlier session with that Id is running, than I'd like to find a way to bring that into focus, rather than having teamviewer new up a new session.
I know that this is possible as the teamviewer console does just this if you attempt to initiate a second session against an already running id. Using the teamviewer console is not an option as I've developed a web based desktop solution that requires the sessions to be kicked off via button clicks inside the UI (the id's are stored in my own db).
The app that I have created has the potential to literally open hundreds of duplicate windows as I'm looking at many processes across a small range of id's over a concentrated period of time, thus a solution is urgently required.
[edit] - although unlikely to have any bearing on things, I'm using asp.net mvc for the application. I add this info as it could well be that the http pipeline is adding/cacheing something that teamviewer interprets as being a uniq identifier.
After careful consideration and fruitless searching, I decided to create my own proxy application and register it with a protocol of my own choosing. This proxy app is called with the same parameters as the teamviewer protocol, i,e, arb://remotecontrol?connectcc=123456789. My little app has an internal dictionary and does a search against window titles into the dictionary. if it finds a match, it brings the window into focus, if it doesn't, it does a Process.Start() using the teamviewer protocol and then adds the data to the dictionary. there are some other checks too, but this works fine so far.
I need to know because I left a process running on my laptop which needs to run overnight. If the access code doesn't expire after a period of time, I will probably need to travel to work to turn my laptop back on and restart the process.
TeamViewer 10 installs with a random 6 digit password, which is reset each time:
-- TeamViewer or the PC is restarted
-- The user resets the random password by hitting the spinner, just to the left of the password, (hover to see the spinner).
TeamViewer's Main UI shows an ID and only a 6 character TEMPORARY password by default. Every time you log into that PC using that PW, it is NOT changed automatically, by default and design, but instead when the application is restarted for any reason.
You must set an "UN-ATTENDED PASSWORD", also called a "Personal Password", which doesn't change, and should also be reasonably complex. Whoever has this password, has complete access to your PC, by definition.
So you won't have to remember separate passwords for each PC, I'd strongly suggest you create a login account from their website. With this one username, you can then log into any PC you "assigned" to that username, without typing that PC's remote access password.
-- Go to "EXTRAS", "GENERAL", and then "ASSIGN that PC [device] to your new username". Then simply log in as that user on each machine, which is set to autostart with Windows. To the right of that UI, you'll see a list of all the PCs you own, have in your contacts, or have been given access to.
-- Go to "EXTRAS", "Computers and Contacts", and UN-Check: "Offline Computers in a Separate Group". Personally I hate it when items appear or disappear from any list, and so now they won't. You can also group your PCs accordingly.
I installed it from "aur/teamviewer 15.30.3-1".
The server starts up almost clean.
These are my daemon logs.
This is what my systemctl reports with "systemctl status teamviewerd". Please note the PID file warning/error.
I can see the teamviewerd server is up and running.
Then I start the client by cli with a simple "teamviewer" which is actually "/opt/teamviewer/tv_bin/script/teamviewer" with this variable setup:
Reinstalling (obviously) doesn't help.
None of the comments in the AUR page seems to work or make any sense. The machine I need to reach has TV v15 too, but I cannot install anything there.
So rustdesk and the likes is not an option ATM.
? FWIW it works just fine here on a KDE Wayland session started with SDDM. And I do faintly remember teamviewer throwing a fit if you don't have a session started by a display manager but it might also just be up to whether XDG_SESSION_TYPE is set to something useful.
The problem from this output is that your loginctl session considers the session type to be tty, which is why teamviewer assumes you are only in a tty. As for SDDM while it will start a xorg server for itself, it can start a wayland session just fine. You could also opt for sddm-git to get the native wayland support.
