hello everyone welcome to another  tutorial from windows lovers.com   this is me your host Prajwal  and today we'll look into how   to set up remote desktop connections on  windows 10 for free so let's get started   in this video, I'm going to demonstrate how to  install and use vnc server and the VNC   viewer if you're not familiar with different  versions of Windows 10 you need to have at   least windows 10 professional edition for you  to be able to connect or set up your computer   uh to be accessed remotely but as a workaround you  can also install and use vnc which is absolutely   free for personal use and makes manageable  connections or accessing your computer remotely   very easy and straightforward before we get into  toggle there's two apps you will need to install   one is a vnc server and second one is a vnc  viewer vnc server is the application you would   install on the cam that you would actually  want to connect remotely or view remotely   vnc viewer on the other hand is the application  that you install on the computer or the device   that you would use to connect to the remote  computer or view the content on the remote   computer the interviewer can be installed on  all the major platforms including your windows   mac os linux android and ios vng server is also  compatible with most of the operating system so   if you have a linux if you have a macros open  system or windows 10 opening system you will   have no issues installing and using vnc server  and the vnc viewer so let's get started and see   how it's actually done first thing is you'll go  and download the vnc server and the vnc viewer   i'll definitely leave all the download links  in the description below so you can follow that   so first i will go and download the vnc server  and second i'll go and download the vnc viewer just make sure that you are choosing the right  platform i'm using it for my windows 10 pc so   i'm going to choose windows 10 but if you're using  it for your mac os operating system or any other   operating system you can choose that operating  system and download the compatible version   click on download so these two are downloaded  second thing is now i'm gonna go ahead and   install the vnc server on this computer  because i'm gonna use another device   to remotely view or control this computer so i'm  gonna install the vnc server on this computer click on okay it's a pretty  straightforward installation   next let's click on next just make sure  you add an exception to the file before   venture server this is important because  you are accessing this computer through   the firewall so you got to make sure that there  is an exception to vnc server on the firewall   otherwise your incoming connections might be  blocked click on next click on install and yes   while this is getting installed please make sure  you give this video a thumbs up and subscribe for   more tutorials and if you have any issues make  sure you leave them in the comments below this is   installed click finish so as you can see it's  asking me to sign in to license the vnc server   alright so what you need to do now is you will  need to create a free account with vnc so that you   can sign in and use it for free for your personal  usage if you're using this in an organization   you'll have to purchase a premium version  of vnc connect purchasing a premium version   of the interconnect also gives you different  other features which might be helpful for your   organization but if you are using it for personal  uses all you can do is just click on don't have an   account click on this link and it will take you to  the web page where you can sign up for the account just enter your email address and click on  i'm not robot click on next and it's pretty   straightforward sign up process i have already  signed up so what i'm going to do now is i'm going   to go ahead and sign in so after you've signed  up and you might get a verification code or a   verification link to your email just make sure you  activate account before you go ahead and sign in   so once you've done that you can go ahead and  log into your vnc server or login with your email address now it's asking me to specify a  vnc password so this password is a password   that you would use on the device you're using to  connect to this computer to verify the connection   or verify yourself that you have the authority  or you have the rights to connect to this pc let's click on next you can name your computer  anything i'm going to name it wlovers and apply   click on yes click on done all right so now the  vnc server is all set up so now this computer   can be accessed or viewed using a vnc viewer after  the proper setup so i'm going to use an ipad first   to remotely connect or view the content of this  computer and try to control it remotely from the   view interview on the ipad so let's see how  that's done first let's go ahead and download   the app vnc viewer so let's  go to app store search for vnc enter and download vnc viewer and tap and open and it says view  interview would like to find and   connect to devices on local network  tap on ok and just scroll through these   it's giving you some information  and what vnc connect is and   what you can do with it just going to skip that  and click on get started i can now next step is to   sign in with the same account that you've signed  in your vnc server from so tap and sign in and enter your credentials tap on continue and you can see i've been signed in on  the top left corner you can see that   and now will show me all the computers  that i have configured the vnc server with   okay the first one or the recent one we  configured was called wlovers so if you   want to connect to that all you got to do  is double tap on it and it says connecting and into the password that allows any computer  to connect to the computer that has the vnc   server installed or configured tap on continue and  now as you can see this computer has connected to   my computer this is the first time you're using  that this application it will show you some   initial work arounds so it says this is your  toolbar tapped into unlock it you can either skip   the tutorial or go ahead and see what tutorial  is about so i'm going to skip and tutorial   this is a really important thing and how to  control your computer if you are using the   mouse mode um it it suppose your gestures if you  can zoom with it you can left click double click   right click all that stuff just click  on done so now i can control my computer   with my ipad so that's how you  use vnc server and view interfere to remotely control or remotely connect to  your computer all right so i would like to   show is there's two main modes in this bn vnc  viewer for ipad so this is your normal mode   where you would use this whole screen as your  touchpad so to use your mouse and everything   now there's another mode which you can toggle  by click by tapping on the i on the top   and click on interaction and you will see this  touch panel so what after you click on that   after you tap after you if you select touch panel  so what happens is your screen is a touch screen   or your whole screen responds to any  touches you do so now you can tap on start   you can tap on this you can tap to open things  you can tap to move things around the only problem   with this that i find is you cannot scroll with  your two fingers you cannot you you cannot scroll or you cannot move things around or you cannot  use your two fingers to scroll so i usually   have a keyboard and a mouse connected one side  to use my vnc viewer to connect to my laptop   if i'm sitting on the couch or if i'm not at home now let's see how you can access the same computer  using another windows computer all right so on the   second computer all you got to do is install  uh vnc viewer again like we did on the ipad   and it's the same setup same  configuration and you can access   your another computer using your another laptop so  what you're gonna do is go to vnc viewer download   page click on download vnc viewer for windows  obviously and it will download the vnc viewer   it's about 10 megabits once the setup  is downloaded double click on it   or just click on open file select your  language english for me click on ok it's preparing to install click on next accept  terms and license agreement click on next   select your location where you want to install  the vnc click on next and just click on install   it's asking you for permission click on yes   and once everything is completed click on  finish and now the viewer has been installed   on a computer all right let's go ahead and set up  the viewer just click on start and you will see   under recently added vnc viewer open that   this is a welcome page click on got it and you can  either enter the vnc address what we're going to   do is we're going to sign in this is the same  login details that you use to sign up for a vnc   account and the same account that you used to set  up the vnc server sign in and as you can see on   the top right corner it says my name and this is  the account that i have and i have three computers   the recent one i set up is wlovers so if you want  to connect to that computer double click on it   so double lovers is my local pc that at the moment  i'm using a virtual machine that's running windows   10 and i'm trying to connect to my local pc so  double click on it connecting to the real vnc   please like this video and subscribe for more  tutorials if this videos have helped make sure   you leave a comment if you have any issues and  we'll get back to that now enter your password   so this is the password that you've set up on your  vnc server when you are configuring the vnc server   it asks you for a password that you want to set up  so that it verifies any incoming connections with   that password into the password clicking ok you  can also select to remember password and click ok at the moment it's throwing me into a loop  because i am running the virtual machine on   the same computer and recording the screen at  the same time and logging into the vnc viewer   to view what's happening in the screen  so it's sort of going into loop but you   will be able to view your screen once you've  click on connect and enter the right password   and close that for now all right before i wrap up  this video there's a few things i would like to   mention the first thing is you got to make sure  that your vncs server is running at all times   on your remote computer for example if i want  this computer to be remotely connected at all   times i want to make sure that this vnc server is  connected and the status is green that means it is   accepting incoming connections first thing second  thing is this free version of vnc and almost all   the vnc versions do not support wake up on lan  meaning your computer has to be up and running   and cannot be on sleep mode or hibernating or even  turned off if you would like to remotely connect   to this computer so you got to make sure that you  change your power settings and make sure that this   computer doesn't go to sleep at all times for you  to be able to connect to it anytime you prefer the   other applications like teamviewer and there's  other applications that support this feature   unfortunately vnc does not as of yet the third  thing is it runs on any version of windows 10   or even windows 7 windows 8.1 regardless of what  version you have the remote desktop connection   feature needs at least windows 10 professional  to be able to connect or to be connected to but   you can install vnc viewer and viewnc server on  any computer and you can access those computer   remotely i hope this helped please make sure you  give this video a thumbs up and subscribe for more
