What is VNC Server?

VNC Server

VNC Server is a super handy tool for anyone who needs to help a friend with their computer from afar. You know how sometimes technology can be a bit overwhelming? When things go south on someone's PC, they often reach out to their more tech-savvy friends for help.

Remote Support Made Easy

To save time and get things sorted quickly, it’s awesome when these friends can connect remotely to the computer that needs fixing. With VNC Server, they can not only see what’s happening on the other PC's screen but also control it like they're right there!

How to Set It Up

To get started with VNC Server, you need two computers: one for the server and another for the viewer. Setting this up is pretty straightforward during installation. First, the viewer has to connect to the server before diving into any fixes.

Licensing and Features

Before using VNC Server, don’t forget to grab a license key online! This key will depend on which features you want. Once you're connected, you can save all those details in what’s called a VNC Address Book for quick access later.

Viewing Options and Controls

The full-screen mode is particularly helpful when trying to see issues clearly on the problem PC. Plus, with just a click of your mouse, you can chat or send commands like Ctrl+Alt+Del! It even lets you check your connection speed.

User Settings and Security

If you're an expert user, there’s an Options window where you can tweak settings like enabling or disabling keyboard and mouse input. You can also turn on Read-only Mode or change how scaling works.

If security is your concern (and it should be!), VNC Server allows you to password-protect your apps and settings. You can set up a master password that will be needed every time someone tries to connect.

A Great Tool for Remote Connections

This tool is not just great for helping friends; it's useful when users want to share printers or transfer files too! The software offers a free license for personal use, but if you're using it for business purposes, you'll need a paid version.

You can find VNC Server in collections like Remote Controller and VNC Clients.
