Chrome Remote Desktop is a handy program that can allow Help Desk staff to remotely control your computer in order to support you. Installing this does not give anyone continuous access to your computer - to start a remote support session, you'll have to explictly give permission, and you can end the session at any time. NOTE: This article addresses remote support only. For help remotely accessing a computer on campus using Chrome Remote Desktop, contact the Help Desk.
Below are instructions for installing the remote support client. You only have to do this installation process once. For assistance with this process or to request a remote support session, please contact the Help Desk at helpdesk@mcad.edu or 612-874-3666.
