From Windows 10 in this case we are going to open TeamViewer and we will see this window:
Step 3
Here we must look at the following information that we must ask the user where we are going to connect:
ID number
It corresponds to the identifier of the equipment where we are going to connect remotely and that we need to link the connection
Password
It is the password we need to access the other computer and it must also be provided by the remote user.
Step 4
Once the data has been provided to us by the other user, we first enter the corresponding ID. Activate the "Remote Control" option
Step 5
Then we will click on "Connect"
Step 6
Now enter the corresponding password that the other user has given you to have access permissions. Click on "Login".
Note
If you click on "Advanced" you can choose the type of control when the connection is established:
Step 7
Click on Login and the connection process will begin. We can already see that the remote desktop where we have connected appears and a panel of superior options to control it.
Step 8
We can see the full screen if we want from the "View" option
