Is it possible to setup my own ID router in TeamViewer like in LiteManager  http://www.litemanager.com/support/Knowledgebase_en/instr_noip_private/

My use would be better classified as 'personal,' but I use Chrome Remote Desktop. It's simple to set up, but sometimes it doesn't seem to want to work. I am not very well versed in networking, but I suspect it is because I have DSL and thus a dynamic IP. I could get a static IP, but I believe that costs more, and I cannot justify the cost. Still, when it works, it's very nice.

Have you looked at Remote Desktop Manager, I've found it a pretty useful tool as it seems to support multiple types of Remote Administration.

Depends.

 

RDS/RDP shadowing if available

Otherwise VNC for non-MS systems.

I thought the truth was that the only "security breeches" they had were due to idiots using the same password for everything.

so yea, I use a lot of things...depends on the client and what they have purchased or what I have available to me via the company I am working for.  I will never use something that I have to preinstall manually or can't be pushed on the fly or where I can't get full admin access if I know the admin credentials to do so.

    • Microsoft is removing legacy drivers from Windows Update by Usama Jawad Last month, we learned that Microsoft is making major changes to the development of hardware drivers in Windows. This included the retirement of Windows Metadata and Internet Services (WMIS), along with the process for pre-production driver signing. Now, the Redmond tech firm has informed partners that it will be getting rid of old drivers in Windows Update. In what is being described as a "strategic" move to improve the security posture and compatibility of Windows, Microsoft has announced that it will be performing a cleanup of legacy drivers that are still being delivered through Windows Update. Right now, the first phase only targets drivers that already have modern replacements present in Windows Update. As a part of its cleanup process, Microsoft will expire legacy drivers so that it is not offered to any system. This expiration involves removing audience segments in the Hardware Development Center. Partners can still republish a driver that was deemed as legacy by Microsoft, but the firm may require a justification. Once the Redmond tech giant completes its first phase of this cleanup, it will give partners a six-month grace period to share any concerns. However, if no concerns are brought forward, the drivers will be permanently eradicated from Windows Update. Microsoft has emphasized that this will be a regular activity moving forward and while the current phase only targets legacy drivers with newer replacements, the next phases may expand the scope of this cleanup and remove other drivers too. That said, each time the company takes a step in this direction, it will inform partners so that there is transparency between both parties. Microsoft believes that this move will help improve the security posture of Windows and ensure that an optimized set of drivers is offered to end-users. The firm has asked partners to review their drivers in Hardware Program so that there are no unexpected surprises during this cleanup process.
    • No idea, but I had a client the other week that lost the entire drive to it. I suggested relying on the Samsung T7's instead. The Sandisk Extreme's had reliability issues too.
    • I use it every day so personally yes I need it, or rather I want it. I use OpenShell though, not the garbage modern Start Menu. I just counted and at the moment I have a total of 92 program shortcuts organized into six folders almost exactly the way I did back in Windows 95. I can get to any program I want to run very quickly. I never use Search to find or run programs.
    • I do miss the Apps view from Windows 8.1 Update.
    • I use the search function and little else since Windows 11 (but there are times where Saved Searches take precedence since the search feature on the Start menu is worse than before). I use other features in previous releases.
