REMOTE ASSISTANCE
Remote tools we use at DCA
Microsoft Quick Assist:
Microsoft Quick Assist is a built-in Windows application on Windows 10 and 11 that enables one person to remotely connect to another person’s Windows device to provide help or technical support. Here’s a breakdown of what it does and how it works:
What It Does
- Remote Access & Control: Allows a helper to view or control another user’s screen over the internet using a secure connection.
- Real-Time Troubleshooting: The helper can diagnose issues, guide the user through steps, or directly fix problems.
- Secure Sessions: Connections are encrypted and require a 6-digit security code. The user must grant permission before any control is shared.
Key Features
- Pre-installed on Windows 10 and 11: No need to download additional software.
- Simple Interface: Designed for users of all technical levels.
- Session Tools: Includes annotation tools, chat, and a laser pointer for guidance (Quick Assist Setup Referrence Guide)
