Can I Set a Fixed Password for TeamViewer Remote Reboot?

  • Thread starter trueo

In summary, the speaker is able to connect to their uncle's computer using TeamViewer, but they are unable to reboot it or restart TeamViewer without resetting the connection password. They are wondering if there is a way to create a fixed password for all future connections, as the current password changes each time TeamViewer is run. The speaker also notes that there may be a security feature preventing this.

My uncle has a computer at home to which I can use TeamViewer to connect from my computer. I would like to reboot his computer and restart TeamViewer too but that will reset the connection password; he is not at home right now and I can't call or ask him for the password for next log-in. Is there any option or way in the Teamviewer software which I can use to turn on or create a fixed password for all future connections ?

At present I can connect to his computer and sure can change any settings but if I reboot it now, I can't make a connection to it again because the password is changed automatically each time the TV is run.


Thank you.

Unless there is a setting in config, I'm guessing it's an important security feature.
