Hey guys, I have a question. I am working from home using my personal home computer to access my work computer. Everything works great. The thing is, my work computer has both the monitors turned on, so people sitting around my desk can see me work. Which is cool.

Now the question is, sort of my worries. If I drag any of my windows, such as google chrome that I have been browsing in my personal computer, NOT on the work computer's google chrome. And if I dragged this chrome window on top of the Teamviewer's interface, does it display what I see in my personal computers window in the monitors of my work computer??

I am a little worried if people sitting around my desk can view my personal computers windows which I don't want them to see. I often login to my online banking in my home computer while working, and switch back and forth to my personal computer and then to teamviewer to access my work stuff.


I don't know if I am being clear here. All I am asking is, when the Teamviewer window is scaled (not maximized) and if Alt tab in my personal computer and pop up any of my home computers window on top of this, will this home computers window be displayed in my office computer?


Please let me know. This thought is aggravating me.

As you ALSO asked by private message.

I don't believe that anyone can see what ELSE you do from home, if you are remoting in to work.
They can see your work screen, unless you 'run the black screen'.

They will ONLY see what you do on the work computer.
