__TOP__ Download Configuration Manager Remote Control Client Viewer

From time to time I get the question to install the CM Remote Tools standalone. I wrote a blog post about how to run it standalone a couple of years ago. In that blog post a comment on how to add a registry key normally added by the Admin console setup will make the audit logging to Configuration Manager work. -configuration-manager-2012-remote-control-standalone/
I wrote a simple PowerShell script to install the CM Remote Tools standalone, add a shortcut to the Start Menu and set the registry key.
In this guide, I will show you how to enable and configure Remote Assistance in SCCM (ConfigMgr). Remote assistance allows you to remotely administer a client computer from the Configuration Manager console.
I would like to point out that Remote Assistance will not work in cases when the outbound traffic from port 3389 is blocked. You cannot establish a Remote Assistance session from the Configuration Manager console to a client computer that is in a workgroup. Learn how to enable remote assistance using group policy on Windows computers.
Remote assistance in SCCM allows you to remotely administer a client computer from the Configuration Manager console. You can start remote assistance in the Configuration Manager console from Assets and Compliance > Devices.
Remote Control is a feature of Configuration Manager using which a machine can be remotely controlled without the need of a user being logged on at that time. Remote Control is an SCCM console feature allowing you to take control of a managed computer.
The Remote Assistance leverages the Windows feature, requests a session with the currently logged-on user, and allows for in-session chat. During SCCM Remote assistance, the user has to accept the request of the administrator and a machine cannot be remote controlled when no one is logged on.
Hi Prajwal, first I would like to thank you for your efforts to make understanding and working with sccm easy for us.I have a question, is remote assistence or remote control is going to work with computers joined to the domain but sitting outside the corporate network? I have some cases that some employees take their computers home and they need assistence.Thanks

I actually see a lot of search terms on this blog regarding Remote Control so therefore I wanted to write a post to clarify it\u2019s functionality and how to set it up. It allows for administrators to connect to a client without using RDP and even without a user logged on and you can interact with the user as well, allowing you to see what the users sees. All communication happens over port TCP 2701 and uses Kerberos for authentication (if it cannot authenticate using Kerberos it will try with the less secure NTLM)
