Good afternoon all,Ok I am having a problem finding a way to use remote assistance and not RDP to connect to another PC in our corporate environment without the user on the other end needing to accept the request. And WITHOUT installing any other software. We have a ridiculously strict and lengthly approval process for bringing new software into the environment so we need to use the tools available such as Remote Assistance. I am open to any ideas...powershell scripts??Thanks!

What OS are the Novice (ie. the folks your trying to help with RA) running? If its Windows 7 and your running Windows 7 its possible Easy Connect will work, although I have no way of testing that. If they or you are not running Windows 7 then as far as I know there is no way to auto accept a RA incoming connection by design. You might check through this Google search though to see if you can find any help with this issue. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=remote+assistance+auto+connect I do know I can do that with TeamViewer but that will not work for you because of your corporate restrictions.

Based on my research, I would like to share you the following article: Auto Accept Offer Remote Assistance Requests Please Note: Microsoft provides third-party contact information to help you find technical support.

Hi there, this is also of interest to me for the same reason. I am able to do this with XP, but I haven't found any solution for Vista or 7 yet. Have you had any luck?
