Do you want to share your Windows screen with a friend or colleague so they can troubleshoot technical issues? Perhaps you want to access your Windows desktop from your tablet to watch a movie in bed?

It’s easier than ever to get remote access to your machine, with many free remote access tools available. Here are the best screen sharing and remote access tools for Windows.

1. TeamViewer

TeamViewer is perhaps the most well-known of all the third-party tools available. It’s over 10 years old and has a loyal base of users.

It doesn’t just specialize in screen-sharing and remote-access. The software also lets users transfer files between connected PCs, conduct web conferences, and make online presentations.

By default, you need to enter a PIN code to connect to someone else’s machine. However, if you regularly connect to the same group of computers you can create a group within your account, thus allowing one-click access.

Unlike some of its competitors, the software also allows group sessions. When in a group session, you can easily pass control of a machine between users, rather than only allowing a one-way session.

2. Chrome Remote Desktop

Chrome Remote Desktop has one glaring drawback—both computers need to have the Chrome browser installed. If you use an alternative browser, you should look elsewhere.

However, if you use Chrome and you’re looking for an easy-to-set-up, no-frills remote access tool, you would struggle to find a better option.

Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store, connect the two PCs using the automatically-generated access code, and you’ll be up and running in seconds. You can permanently link together two computers if you need regular access.

Google has aimed the software at home users who need to share computer screens for some quick troubleshooting or file access; it lacks the advanced features of some of the other options on this list.

A beta version of Chrome Remote Desktop is available as a web app.

3. Microsoft Remote Desktop

Microsoft Remote Desktop is Windows’ native screen-sharing solution. It uses the propriety Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) technology.

Even though Microsoft has built it into the OS, it’s not the easiest (or best) option for screen sharing on Windows. Its biggest problem is that RDP servers are only available on Windows Professional and above; you won’t be able to connect to anyone who is running the Home version of the operating system.

Beginners might find the app difficult to set up. If you want to connect to machines outside your home network, you need to know the IP address of the person you want to connect to and configure their router to accept incoming remote desktop connections.

Ultimately, it’s important to understand Microsoft Remote Desktop is designed for office use, not home use. If you want to troubleshoot a family member’s PC, look elsewhere.

4. AeroAdmin

The development team behind AeroAdmin clearly took inspiration from TeamViewer; the way the app works and the on-screen visuals are strikingly similar.

Unlike TeamViewer, however, it does not require any installation. You just need to run the 2 MB EXE file and follow the on-screen instructions. It means you can keep a copy on your USB flash drive and instantly provide remote access to any machine you are sat in front of. You can make a connection using your computer’s IP address or by sharing the automatically-generated passcode.

You can also configure the app to run before any user logs on. As such, this tool can give you unattended access to your machine.

Download:AeroAdmin (Free)

5. Seecreen

Seecreen is AeroAdmin’s direct competitor. It’s written in Java and does not require any installation or configuration; just download the 500 KB EXE file and you’ll have remote screen sharing in seconds.

Its feature list is almost identical to AeroAdmin; you can chat and have VOIP calls with fellow users, transfer files between connected machines, manage multiple user accounts, configure the app for unattended access, and maintain contact and computer lists.

The only real difference is the way the app looks on-screen. Seecreen is arguably the less-polished of the two. If you need an instant screen-sharing solution, try them both and see which you prefer. Make sure you let us know in the comments!

6. Lite Manager

Lite Manager is an under-appreciated program that offers many of the same features as some of the expensive paid tools.

Of course, the basics like file transfer and text chat are covered—but here are some of the coolest advanced features:

• RDP integration
• Screen recorder
• Remote installation of screen-sharing software
• Network mapping
• IP filtering
• Registry editor
• Cascade connections
• 30 connected computers

A paid version is available ($10 per license), but for most people it’s unnecessary.

7. AnyDesk

AnyDesk can be run as either a portable program or a desktop app. Connecting the two apps is simple; the client just needs the host’s AnyDesk address or alias.

Network Video Client Download

There’s also an option to set up unattended access. It’s great for if you want to access your files remotely without a person’s physically using your other machine.

Other features include an adjustable slider that balances connection quality with connection speed, clipboard syncing, remote session recording, and cross-computer keyboard shortcuts.

A Warning When Using Remote Access Software

Firstly, hackers often use these types of apps in tech support scams. Someone will call your house and encourage you to install their app of choice. As soon as you do, they have complete access to everything on your machine. As such, make sure you only give access to people you know and implicitly trust.

Secondly, if you use an account to log into the app, it is hackable. TeamViewer was a victim of such a hack in mid-2016. Thousands of users reported that hackers had penetrated their machines, with some even claiming they lost money from their bank accounts.

1. How about NoMachine?
   Works on many platforms well.

2. you have missed most used and famous app that is logmein and go to assist these are top two player in remote support. other are ammy admin, anydesk, suprimocontrol, bomgar , see my pc etc and many more you have mentioned least used only.

   • Logmein is evil, as far as I'm concerned, and their support is a bunch of rude people . I switched from Logmein to Screenconnect. Much better!

3. Brosix is an app entirely dedicated to facilitate your work day. It allows you to share your screen, co-browse, have video call, send files,chat and more. All in one,why paying for many things where you can have it at a great price.

4. You mentioned that 'Unlike TeamViewer, however, [AeroAdmin] does not require any installation.' There is a portable apps version of TeamViewer.

5. CrossLoop was acquired by AVG in 2012 and is not available any more since January 31, 2014, as stated on [Broken Link Removed]

6. Good article! In addition to this list, you might consider CrankWheel screen sharing (www.crankwheel.com). You can use Windows, Linux, Mac, Android and other operating systems to share screens. CrankWheel is an easy solution both for individual and corporate use. In two clicks you can share any visual information from your device.

7. Another very good tool is: R-HUB remote suppoprt servers. It works well.

8. Try out helpbeam remote support. Very simple to use.

9. I for sure tried few others and finally decided for showmypc.com for my small business.

10. This article helped me much. I picked TeamViewer up :)

11. Anthony, I use Techinline too. After trying all these free services I got sick and tired of dropped connections and limitations. It's ok to me to pay a little, but feel stable. So, the other reason for choosing Techinline is the rates which I don't even consider a full price for such a great service!

12. err, on my iPhone

13. I've seen a remote desktop app for the PC that supports audio from the PC but not for mac, that's basically what I'm looking for, a screen sharing app that supports audio for the mac over 3G, Edge, and wireless

14. weezo works perfect. easy to setup. no hassle!

15. You should also try the amazing http://www.weezo.net, which only requires a browser (client-side), even for remote desktop (and so go through firewalls).
    It is definitely the swiss knife of remote access & file sharing.

16. Check out GeniusRoom! screen sharing, click to conference call. chat, messaging, file sharing and more! works great, secure, private. Works well, fast.

17. Techinline (http://www.techinline.com) is pretty awesome for this sort of thing. Perfect for sharing your screen or taking control of the remote machine, and very easy to use as well

18. Hi Aibek,

    Mikogo is a free screen sharing tool and is a great addition to your list.
    Our app was reviewed recently on makeuseof.com here at Mikogo : Screen Sharing App for Skype and Windows

    By the way Al, Mikogo has a great feature called 'Application selection'. With this you can choose which applications you wish to share with others, while keeping all other applications hidden. This should help you.
    We're currently working on the next version which will contain some great new features - definitely something to keep your eye on :-)

    Thank you,

    Andrew
    The Mikogo Team

19. We hope you'll take a look at Glance glance.net. We provide an easy-to-use screen sharing service. Show a PC or Mac screen, up to 100 guests on any OS. Low flat-rate pricing, Free Trial.

    Thanks!

20. This one is best of the Desktop Sharing breed.
    http://showmypc.com

21. Try http://www.gogrok.com
    It's new. just came out. Very useful. You can share your whole desktop or single application. And you can release/retrieve editing (control) right. There is more, you can change role with your viewer, let him share his stuff with you by clicking one icon, you don't need to re-start the whole process just to switch roles.

    • I need an app where

      1/ I can grant access to only one application...

      2/ My staff member has their won password and can log in and use that application remotely wihtout me being at the PC

      3/ extremely secure

      any ideas?

      Al

22. Background: I have been using LogMeIn-Free and TightVNC for a while and both are great in respect to acceptably low bandwidth usage. LogMeIn also has encryption. But LogMeIn does not seem to have any products that restricts the sharing to a single application and only a single remote user is allowed. TightVNC can restrict the sharing to a rectangular area that is defined on the server but has no encryption and the shared area must be on the top window.
    Remote Panels (by National Instruments) uses much more bandwidth without encryption but the good thing is that the application does not have to be on the top window and multiple remote viewers can exist with one at a time in control.

    What I need: I am looking to share a single application whether it is the top window or in the background.
    I also need to allow multiple people to see that application.
    Do any of these products allow that?
    Thanks for any suggestions!
    Dave

23. Yakkle also does remote desktop (and voip and IM) all in one app and it's free. I invite you to give it a try.

24. useful

25. @ jonatankot

    Thanks for heads up I will check it out.

26. LogMeIn has both commercial and free version and the free one works great for me. You should give it a try :)

27. @ DWiner

    Thanks, but if I remember correctly none of these two applications is free.
    In this post I focused only on free ones. ;-)

28. Thanks for letting me know about the missing video, it's up now.

29. Hey thanks for including SoonR on the list! I am one of the SoonR folks and I noticed that the link to the video referenced in your post was missing. So I hope you don't mind my filling in the blank.

    Here's the link to the blog embedded in the video:
    http://soonrs.com/blog/2007/09/04/skype-on-the-iphone-using-soonr/

    Also thanks for succinctly differentiating between screen sharing, remote control, and remote access. Most people mix it all up in one bucket. If you try the programs you mentioned, it'll be clear that they are not the same.
