Unattended Access not working
« on: March 23, 2017, 04:58:30 PM »
I am trying to test Teamviewer on a number of Family and Friends PC's running both Windows 10 and Windows 7. I have installed Teamviewer in Unattended Access mode and set a password for all the PC's.

My problem is that when I restart any of the PC's Teamviewer cannot be accessed, I either get an error saying "Error Code: WaitforConnectFailed or it just tries for a second then does nothing. I can see that teamviewer_service.exe is running although I cannot see the Teamviewer Icon in the system tray.

Interestingly I do get a message on my machine from Teamviewer saying the User is Logged in - so it seems like Teamviewer is running on the remote machine.

If I remote desktop to the PC using Microsoft Remote Desktop and start Teamviewer manually with the Teamviewer Icon I can connect without any problem.

If I go to Extras->Options->General "Start Teamviewer with Windows" is ticked and Extras->Options->Security has a password set in the Personal Password (for unattended access) area.

I have tried uninstalling, restarting, disabling avast antivirus and then reinstalling as an administrator without any luck.

This is happening on ALL the PC's I have tried on. They are all located in different areas with different routers and different operating systems.

Any help would be much appreciated.
