Like AeroAdmin, Anydesk is also free software that lets you connect remotely to another PC desktop. It supports unattended access, doesn’t require installation, can transfer files, and works without having to configure a router. It offers tabbed browsing and hidden menus that make AnyDesk very easy to use.

AnyDesk works with Linux, Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows XP operating systems. It syncs clipboard contents across the host, and the client’s computer means if a client has copied something, the host can paste it into his PC.

The AnyDesk is portable by default, but you can install it like a regular program if you like. During an active remote connection, various settings are easily accessible from the menu bar. It can alter the relationship to create the best possible video quality, speed, or balance between the two.

You can also customize the other things, like showing the remote cursor, transmitting sound, disabling control for view-only, turning off clipboard syncing, blocking the other user’s input, and taking a screenshot.

As mentioned above, files also can be transferred with AnyDesk by copying them to the clipboard and then pasting them to the remote PC. For easy access, you can also create a connection shortcut to the Desktop.

AnyDesk is similar to other remote desktop programs, like TeamViewer and AeroAdmin. It also uses an ID number to make establishing a connection easy. If you install AnyDesk on PC, instead of just run it portably, you will be provided with an AnyDesk-ID, which is created automatically and based on the name of the computer (like CellCute@Ad) instead of on numbers.

When both the host and client computer are running AnyDesk, they can share the AnyDesk-Address with the other and enter it in the “Remote Desk” part of the program to start the connection.
