Kevin, You are a totally natural teacher and one of the greatest teachers that I have ever seen. I know that, not only because I am a retired teacher who for forty years observed hundreds of others in the teaching profession, but also because of the specific opportunity of being able to compare your online explanations to other people's online explanations of exactly same things. They are working hard and are certainly doing their best, but few of them seem to have the level of skill that you have--that precious skill that a great teacher must have--seeing the subject that they are teaching from the position of the students to whom they are teaching it. You are obviously an expert in the hundreds of subjects that you explain, but some of the worst explanations I have seen come from experts, even the experts who created what they are explaining, because they just cannot manage to view it like the neophyte who lacks their knowledge. Teaching is certainly a skill that can be taught to some extent, but my experience suggests to me that it is primarily an inborn skill. I can tell that you have done a tremendous amount of work to perfect your videos, and they are a close to perfect as you could get them. But, sadly, even hard work isn't enough for those who lack your natural teaching ability to match your natural results. Thanks for doing what you are doing.

You're never a boring teacher at all, you go direct to point which make some of us understand even better 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Ok, Now i get it. You forgot to mention that these computers are logged into the same account. You might have added to this, that you can access a 2nd computer with a different account, but you must use the Remote Support Share Screen to control of someone else's pc. BTW, its not just a share screen, you have total control of that 2nd pc via that control method.

Your tutorials are easy to understand, direct to the point, and very helpful!

Was just about to go the long route setting up RDP through my carrier then this gold nugget of a video came to my feed. Implemented it and tested it and glad to report it works awesome. Kevin you are becoming my favorite ❤ YouTuber.

Thank you, Kevin! We tried it and it works! This will save us money and time. I agree with the others who call you and your videos awesome!

[Summermail]

For me, the video was confusing at first. A few steps was left out to assume. Once I figured those out, I was golden. Thanks!!!

Also worth mentioning is that you do not need to be on the same wifi. Like you could just be connected to your phones 4G network and you are still able to connect to your PC remotely!
I also found out that it's possible to remotely connect to your PC even tho you are not logged in to Windows :)

[SonnyIbibo]

Thank you Kevin.

It has to be noted that, the same Gmail account must be logged in with, at both ends.

[hadihamdam]

Another great tutorial from Kevin.Kevin, you're amazing. thank you

[hollymo]

This is really great. Does the home computer need to be powered up? Thanks

[TheEnderman]

this is so cool. i have a chromebook, and it obviously can't open exe's. my main computer just can't really handle anything anymore, so this is great for me.

[Rudy-fzxy]

Hello, I really like the way you explain the topic. I do however want to know, when remoting into someone else's computer, do they need to download the app 1st, or just accept the access code you described?

[Schmootle]

This video is big help for a parent that needs computer support but has trouble installing an extension from instructions over the phone. 👍👍👍

[ryanbartlett]

Thanks. Found and started using a few weeks ago. It works so well.

[GiteshBajaj]

Good One ....🙂 I tried it and works flawless...
It has potential of replacing anydesk as the full screen mode is really immersive

[novara]

Rustdesk is a very good open source alternative. Works very good on Windows, Linux and mobile too.

[Danlyman]

Do you have a detailed video on doing the key mapping and shortcuts and all that? I can't seem to find anything on the internet that discuss es and shows exactly how to do that.😊 Thanks!.

[rommeldomingo]

Thanks for this video. Please take note
- the PC should be signed in with admin privileges
- Remote Desktop cannot remote into the Windows Sign-In
- you could lose remote access when the PC goes idle

DUDE! Seriously, I'm a Technical Writer and IT Trainer with 20+ years' experience, and every single thing of yours that I've seen here and on TikTok is absolutely TOP DRAWER stuff. There isn't another IT content creator that I've ever had more confidence in, or respect for. About Chrome Remote Desktop -- it seems too good to be true. How does it compare with Windows RDP for features, stability, and security? Thanks, Tony,
