Connecting to a remote device without any confirmation from the remote side can be useful in certain scenarios where you need to access a device without needing someone to accept the connection request. In this article, we will explain how to set up and connect to a remote device via unattended access.
This article applies to all TeamViewer Remote users.
To connect to your remote device without confirmation, you must first install TeamViewer Host on your remote device.
Note: This installation method is only relevant for licensed users. Free license users have to install the Host manually, as described in the next chapter.
We recommend installing the Host via a QuickSupport session.
This will give you the ability to set up unattended access for a remote device without being on-site. The only requirement for this method is that someone on the remote side accepts the incoming QuickSupport session.
Note: If you can't get someone to accept the incoming QuickSupport session, you'll have to install the Host manually, as explained in the next chapter.
To install the Host via a QuickSupport session, please follow the instructions below:
