Quick Assist – A Screen Sharing/Control App that is part of Windows 10+

Quick Assist is built into Windows 10 and allows for remote control connections to other computers. No downloads or other software needed!

Type in Quick Assist at the Windows Search bar. You are given two simple options when it launches

If you want to take control or see another person’s computer, choose the Give assistance option. If someone wants to connect to you, use the Get assistance option

For example, Pick Assist another person. The app will connect to the netherworld and await confirmation with the other user

Have the other person launch Quick Assist as well. Supply them the six-digit code you see. Once they type that number in on their end (by typing it into the Code from assistant box in Step 1), you will be connected and given sharing options.
