屏幕共享应用程序对于帮助解决计算机问题的人非常有用，无论您或他们身在何处。这可能包括帮助家庭成员解决计算机问题或帮助工作同事解决来自世界任何地方的问题。
一些屏幕共享应用程序是简单的基于云的应用程序，可让您启动视频会议，您或其他人可以共享他们的屏幕，然后将控制权提供给会议中的其他人。其他屏幕共享应用程序是功能齐全的远程支持应用程序，您还可以访问所连接的另一台计算机的文件系统。
您选择的屏幕共享应用程序取决于您需要做什么以及您需要在远程系统上访问什么。
1. 团队查看器
没有将 TeamViewer 放在列表顶部的屏幕共享应用程序列表。这是一个非常流行、常用的远程支持应用程序。
它如此受欢迎的原因是因为有一个免费版本，任何人都可以将其用于非商业用途。它也非常易于使用。

理想情况下，您将在尝试访问远程计算机的计算机上安装基本安装。然后，在远程计算机上，让远程用户使用“无人值守”选项下载并安装TeamViewer 。
如果您在之前的设置屏幕中选择了高级设置，则可以选择启用(Advanced Settings)TeamViewer附带的一些高级功能
。其中包括用于远程打印的打印机驱动程序、VPN功能或用于从Outlook内部启用(Outlook)TeamViewer会话

TeamViewer帐户下登录的远程计算机。您可以选择此计算机以立即连接并查看远程屏幕。
在远程计算机上，用户需要确认您有权远程连接。
一旦他们单击允许(Allow)，您就可以查看和控制他们的远程屏幕。
如果您使用TeamViewer(TeamViewer)帐户登录远程TeamViewer安装，您只需在连接过程中输入密码即可远程访问该远程计算机。

然后，他们需要选择允许(Allow)为您提供连接权限。
在您的计算机上，选择继续(Continue)以完成连接。
最后，两台计算机将链接，您将看到用户所见内容的全屏视图。

3. Skype
在视频会议方面，Skype 一直是王者。当然，任何可用于查看某人桌面的视频会议软件都是理想的远程支持工具。
Skype的免费版本非常适合通过呼叫用户并让他们与您共享屏幕来连接到远程桌面。您可以通过选择其个人资料上方的摄像机图标来发起视频会议。
参加视频会议后，任何一位与会者（可能超过两人）都可以选择屏幕底部的共享屏幕图标，立即与会议中的其他人共享他们的桌面。(Share Screen)
远程屏幕显示后，您可能需要选择屏幕底部的共享屏幕按钮才能完成与会议中的所有其他人的共享。(Share Screen)
共享屏幕后，会议中的其他人可以引导共享屏幕的人通过故障排除提示来解决他们的计算机问题。
Skype 屏幕共享质量非常好，屏幕更新很快。
使用免费版本的Skype，提供远程支持需要包括语音聊天以及共享屏幕控制鼠标的人。
但是，使用Skype(Skype)的高级版或商业版，您将在共享屏幕时看到一个选项，以便在电话会议中向其他人提供控制。
安装 Skype(Install Skype)
4.加入我
如果您想使用易于使用的应用程序进行屏幕共享会话，那么Join.Me不会出错。
当您注册Join.Me时，您可以创建一个网络链接以用于您的屏幕共享会话。您可以单击开始(Start)会议(Start a Meeting)下的开始以启动您的会话。
您可以向任意数量的用户发送您的自定义 join.me 链接，以便他们与您一起加入会话。
您可以自己向他们发送 IM 中的链接，或选择发送电子邮件(send an email)
链接以向用户发送包含连接代码的电子邮件。
当他们加入您的会话时，您需要选择允许(allow)让他们加入视频会议。
就像Skype一样，免费版的Join.Me可以让您在会话中与其他用户共享屏幕和聊天。这意味着需要计算机故障排除帮助的人需要设置会话并邀请用户。
但是，高级版Join.Me允许将鼠标控制权传递给会话中的任何人，使其成为一个创意屏幕共享和远程故障排除工具。
其他
Pro功能包括在屏幕上注释和记录故障排除会话。
使用加入我(Use Join.Me)
5. 屏幕跳跃
如果您真的不想为了屏幕共享而在计算机上安装成熟的应用程序，Screenleap是一个很好的解决方案。它作为Google扩展程序安装，并允许您在几秒钟内通过互联网与任何人快速共享您的屏幕。
第一次运行应用程序时，您需要选择Open Screenleap Start Application并启用Always open these types of links in the associated app。
启动应用程序后，您可以使用下拉列表更改要共享的内容。共享您的整个桌面或仅共享您在矩形内绘制的一部分。
您会看到您的Screenleap会话在顶部列出了一个代码。您可以告诉任何人访问 screenleap.com，输入特殊代码，然后选择查看屏幕(View screen)
以查看您的共享屏幕会话。
要使用此应用程序共享您的屏幕，您可以从Screenleap.com获得两个选项。您可以选择广播(Broadcast)屏幕并将您的桌面共享给任何知道您的URL链接的人（要求您使用您的电子邮件注册一个帐户）。或者，您可以选择共享屏幕(Share screen)以立即共享您的屏幕并将代码发送给您想要与之共享屏幕的人。
屏幕共享运行良好，但由于传输是从您的浏览器发送和接收到远程用户的浏览器，因此存在一些延迟。
此外，由于它是一个简单的屏幕共享插件，您将无法使用此应用程序远程控制另一台 PC。在远程查看屏幕并通过故障排除步骤与其他用户交谈时，您需要通过电话交谈。
Screenleap的免费版本允许每天最多 40 分钟的屏幕共享，这对于免费软件来说是相当多的。
使用 Screenleap(Use Screenleap)
6.曲柄轮
CrankWheel是另一个Chrome插件，可让您远程共享您的显示器。使CrankWheel(CrankWheel)与众不同的一件事是它非常轻巧。设置(Setup)需要几秒钟。

6 Best Screen Sharing Apps to Remote Connect to Any PC
Screen sharing apps are very useful for helping pеople with computer issues, no matter where you or they are located. This may includе helping famіly members with computer prоblemѕ or helping work colleagues with isѕues from anywhere in the world.
Some screen sharing apps are simple cloud-based apps that
let you launch a video conference where either you or the other person can
share their screen and then offer control to the other person in the conference. Other screen sharing apps are fully
functional remote-support applications that let you also access the file system
of the other computer you’re connected to.
The screen share app that you choose depends on what you
need to do and what you need to access on the remote system.
1. TeamViewer
There
is no list of screen sharing apps that wouldn’t have TeamViewer at the very top
of the list. It’s a very popular, commonly used app for remote support.
The
reason it’s so popular is because there’s a free version anyone can use for
non-commercial uses. It’s also extremely easy to use.
When you first download and run the TeamViewer installer, you’ll have the option to set up a full version (Basic installation), or just set it up as a service (unattended) for remote access from another computer.
Ideally,
you’ll install the basic installation on the computer where you’re attempting
to access the remote computer. Then, on the remote computer, have the remote
user download and install TeamViewer using the “unattended” option.
If
you’ve selected Advanced Settings in the previous setup screen, you’ll
have the option of enabling some of the advanced features that come with
TeamViewer. These include including a printer driver to remotely print, a VPN
feature, or an add-in to enable TeamViewer sessions from inside of Outlook.
The
easiest way to connect to another computer using TeamViewer is if you’re on the
same network. If this is the case, just select the dropdown under Partner ID.
In
the list, you’ll see remote computers that are also logged in under your
TeamViewer account. You can select this computer to instantly connect and view
the remote screen.
On
the remote computer, the user will need to confirm that you have permission to
remotely connect.
Once
they click Allow, you can see and control their remote screen.
If
you log into the remote TeamViewer installation with your TeamViewer account,
all you’ll need to do to remote into that remote computer is type the password
as part of the connection process.
You’ll
notice a control panel at the top of the window that you can use for various
functions that’ll help you use the remote computer as well as communicate with
the remote user.
Some
of those features include:
- Leave a note on the screen for the remote user to find later
- Lock, sign out of, or reboot the computer
- Send Cntrl-Alt-Delete or other key combinations
- Change the scaling of the view or screen resolution
- Adjust view quality settings
- Add a side panel to communicate with the user
- Initiate a call via phone or internet
- Launch a video call
- Annotate over the screen so the remote user can see it
- Transfer files
- Record the session
- Print from the remote computer
As
you can see, TeamViewer is full featured and a very powerful tool for remotely
connecting to and controlling a remote computer.
Install TeamViewer
2. Windows Quick Assist
Another
useful tool for remote screen sharing that’s not only free, but also comes
pre-installed with Windows, is the Windows Quick Assist tool.
If
you’re helping another person who uses the latest version of Windows, you just
need to make sure that you’re both running the Quick Assist tool.
To
open the tool, select the Start menu, type Quick Assist,
and select the Quick Assist tool to open it.
Once
it’s open, select Assist another person to get started.
You’ll
need to sign into your Microsoft account to continue. When you first set up
your computer, you likely had to create a Microsoft account. That’s the one you’ll
need to use here.
Once
you’re done, you’ll see a security code that you can provide to the remote
user.
The
remote user just needs to type the code and select Share screen.
Then,
they need to select Allow to provide you permission to connect.
On
your computer, select Continue to finish the connection.
Finally,
the two computers will link, and you’ll see a full screen view of what the user
is seeing.
Now
you can take control, move the mouse around, and help the remote user with any
issues they’re having.
The
top menu of the shared screen includes a panel of controls for you to use on
the remote computer.
- Select any monitor
- Add annotations to the screen
- Use an “instruction channel” to pass messages to the remote
user
- Restart the computer
- Launch task manager
Windows
Quick Assist is one of the easiest (and free!) screen sharing methods
available. It’s fast, easy, and nearly everyone owns a Windows computer.
3. Skype
Skype
has always been king when it comes to videoconferencing. And of course, any
videoconferencing software that you can use to view someone’s desktop makes for
an ideal remote support tool.
The
free version of Skype is good for connecting to the remote desktop by calling
the user and having them share their screen with you. You can initiate a
videoconference by selecting the video camera icon above their profile.
Once
you’re in the videoconference, either attendee (more than two are possible),
can select the Share Screen icon at the bottom of the screen to immediately
share their desktop with everyone else in the meeting.
Once
the remote screen displays, you may need to select the Share Screen button at
the bottom of the screen to finish sharing it with all other people in the
conference.
Once
the screen is shared, other people in the conference can walk the person
sharing the screen through troubleshooting tips to fix their computer problem.
Skype
screen-sharing quality is excellent, and the screen updates are quick.
With
the free version of Skype, offering remote support needs to involve voice
chatting combined with the person sharing their screen controlling the mouse.
However,
with the premium or business version of Skype, you’ll see an option while
you’re sharing your screen to provide control to other people on the conference
call.
Install Skype
4. Join.Me
If
you’d like to have a screen-sharing session using an easy to use app, you can’t
go wrong with Join.Me.
When
you sign up with Join.Me, you can create a web link to use for your screen
sharing sessions. You can click Start under Start a Meeting to
launch your session.
You
can send any number of users your custom join.me link so they can join the
session with you.
You
can send them the link in an IM yourself, or select the send an email
link to send the user an email with the connection code.
When
they join your session, you’ll need to select allow to let them join the
video conference.
Just
like Skype, the free version of Join.Me lets you share you screen and chat with
other users in the session. This means the person who needs computer
troubleshooting help needs to set up the session and invite users.
However,
the premium version of Join.Me allows for passing mouse control to anyone in
the session, making it an idea screen sharing and remote troubleshooting tool.
Other
Pro features include annotating on the screen and recording the troubleshooting
session.
Use Join.Me
5. Screenleap
If
you really don’t want to install a full-fledged application on your computer
just for the purpose of screen sharing, Screenleap is a good solution. It
installs as a Google extension and allows you to quickly share your screen with
anyone over the internet in just seconds.
The
first time you run the application, you’ll need to select Open Screenleap
Start Application and enable Always open these types of links in the
associated app.
Once
you launch the app, you can change what you’re sharing using the dropdown list.
Either share your entire desktop or share just a portion that you draw inside a
rectangle.
You’ll
see your Screenleap session has a code listed at the top. You can tell anyone
to visit screenleap.com, type the special code, and select View screen
to see your shared screen session.
To
share you screen out using this app, you have two options from Screenleap.com.
You can select Broadcast screen and share out your desktop to anyone who has
your URL link (requires that you sign up for an account with your email). Or,
you can select Share screen to immediately share out your screen and get
the code to send to the person you want to share your screen with.
The
screen share works well, but there’s some lag since the transmission is sent
and received form your browser to the remote user’s browser.
Also,
since it’s a bare-bones screen sharing add-on, you won’t be able to remotely
control another PC using this app. You’ll need to talk over the phone while
you’re remotely viewing the screen and talking the other user through
troubleshooting steps.
The
free version of Screenleap allows for up to 40 minutes of screen sharing every
day, which is quite a bit for free software.
Use Screenleap
6.
CrankWheel
CrankWheel is another Chrome add-on that lets you remotely
share your display. One thing that sets CrankWheel apart is that it’s extremely
lightweight. Setup takes seconds.
Also, it offers three main methods for sharing your screen.
- Share just a single browser tab
- Share a single program window
- Share your entire desktop screen
When you select any of these options, you’ll see a pop-up
window that lets you select which tab or application you want to share to the
remote user.
There are two ways to share the screen. You can either type
in the other user’s phone number and send an SMS with the share link, or you
can copy the share link and email it or IM it to the remote user yourself.
Once the other user enters the link into their browser,
they’ll immediately see the screen that you’re sharing.
This is probably one of the fastest and easiest ways to
share your screen and have users remotely connect to your PC – or remotely
connect to anyone else’s PC.
The free version of CrankWheel allows 25 free remote screen
sharing sessions per month, which should be more than enough for general
troubleshooting help with family and friends.
