How to launch Windows Quick Assist
What is Windows Quick Assist
Windows Quick Assist is a tool that lets someone you trust help you with your computer remotely. Think of it like asking a friend or a technician to look at your screen to help fix a problem or show you how to do something, but instead of being there with you, they can help from anywhere as long as both of you have an internet connection.
Here’s how it works:
- You open Quick Assist, ask for help, and get a special code to share with the person assisting you.
- The helper uses the code to connect to your computer and can either view your screen or take control to help fix things.
It's safe because you’re the one who gives permission, and you can see everything they do.
In short, Quick Assist lets someone help you with your computer without needing to be physically there!
Important Warning:
Only allow remote connections from trusted sources or people you’ve personally requested help from. Be cautious of anyone contacting you unexpectedly, claiming issues like a virus or other problems, and asking for access to your computer. Scammers often use these tactics to gain control of your system. Always verify the identity of the person before granting any access.
