The latest version of<br />
TeamViewer, our favourite<br />
free program for remotely<br />
accessing your PC, has loads<br />
of new features. It lets you<br />
access your remote PC<br />
quicker than ever and speeds<br />
up the transfer of fi les. Best of<br />
all, it lets you request help<br />
from anyone who also has<br />
TeamViewer installed on<br />
their PC by simply clicking a<br />
button. Th is is a godsend for<br />
those who regularly rely on<br />
family or friends for help.<br />
Likewise, the updated<br />
TeamViewer mobile app<br />
makes it easier to remotely<br />
access your PC from any<br />
phone or tablet.<br />
STEP To install TeamViewer on your PC, go to www.snipca.<br />

1 All-In-One version in the Windows tab, then run the<br />
downloaded setup fi le. Now select ‘Installation to access this<br />
computer remotely (unattended)’ 1 , select ‘Personal/Noncommercial<br />
use’ 2 , tick ‘Show advanced settings’ 3 , click<br />
‘Accept <strong>–</strong> next’ 4, then click Yes. On the next screen, ensure<br />
‘Use TeamViewer Meeting Add-In for Outlook’ is ticked (this<br />
