    Remote Access program like TeamViewer for home personal use that is FR


    Need a Remote Access program like TeamViewer for home personal use that is FREE. I just use it to go into my 2 sisters computers when they have a problem or they want to share something with me and we watch together. Been with TeamViewer for about 3 years and now I keep getting flagged about I am using it for Commercial Use? Which I don't even understand how that's even possible. We are in our 70's and we are just doing good to get to our computers.TeamViewer said they Reset my computer but still have same problem so its time to move own. Does anyone know of a FREE and EASY to install Remote Access program?Deeply appreciate it and many thanksGod BlessArt :) Keep Smiling

    PS: I have Windows 10 Home Edition

    If all computers are Windows 10, check out the free Win 10 built-in program called Quick Assist. Here's an introductory video.

    I just tried Quick Assist for the first time and it works great. I've always used TeamViewer before but this may be the way to go. The really nice part is you don't have to download or install anything, it's already there. It even has a built-in chat feature so you don't need a phone once you're connected.

    The link Gary gave has a very good demo. Have fun. I think you'll like it.

    My only problem now is that I need a program where I don't have to ask my sister for the code they sent her as she is normally not home and that is what made TeamViewer so good as I just entered the password and jumped in. Only she and I knew the password.

    But for some reason I keep getting a message saying "Commercial use suspected" and I only use there Personal Plan which is free and is great. And like everything else you can't get a hold of a human there.

    But I truly do thank everybody who has responsed and I hope somebody out there can help me find another program in some way.

    Many thanks

    If you search on TeamViewer thinks I’m using the software commercially you'll get endless hits. It's a plague. TeamViewer appears to be doing this on purpose to force people to buy their software instead of using the free version.

    Your chances of getting TeamViewer to fix the problem for you or in general for everyone is 0.

    Therre are others choices though:

    GoToAssist - UnAttended login supported
    LogMeIn - not sure about unattended login support. not free

    After checking them all out I bought a license and went with RemotePC. I am a very happy camper. Many thanks to all who responded. It was your response that help me choose.

    Thanks Again

    Hi Ztruker


    I found RemotePC very easy to install plus so much of it reminds me of TeamViewer in a way. I am very comfortable with the program just like I was with TeamViewer.
