Google Chrome is the most popular web browser which comes with many useful features. But we can enhance the features and functions of Google Chrome by installing extensions.
I am sure you already know about TeamViewer which is used to control a computer from remote location. It is generally used to help other persons from remote locations. But why install separate software if you can do the same with Google Chrome? Google chrome can also be used to control a computer from remote location as you do in TeamViewer. For this, you only need to install a nice app called Chrome Remote Desktop BETA.
Chrome Remote Desktop BETA works similar to TeamViewer and allows users to control a remote computer on Internet. This app must be installed on both computers involved in sharing process.
First of all, add this app in Google Chrome. Then launch the app to use this feature. To share your computer with friends, you need to click on “Share” button. It will generate a 12 digit code. Give this code to other person on chat or email. He need to enter this code to access your computer.
To connect to a computer, click on “Access ” and then you need to ask the 12 digit code. Ask it to other user whose system you want to access from remote location.
One important thing to remember that the app is fully cross-platform supported. SO you can control any computer running on any operating system. The only thing other computer needs to have this app with Chrome Remote Desktop BETA app installed.
You can also enable remote connection on your computer which will allow you to connect to your computer from a remote system. You only need to enable remote connection. It will ask you to set a pin which will be asked each time you will try to connect to your computer.
So next time your brother asks for a help, try Google chrome in place of other tools. Control his computer from remote location with Google Chrome and help him.
