  1. Problem using Quick Assist


    I have used Quick Assist for the first time to support a remote user. I find the screen of the remote user is over scanned, full screen windows cannot be closed and the task bar is not visible. Can somebody advise how to overcome this issue?

    :)

    Quick Assist Problem


    I would be obliged if someone could provide an answer to this problem. I use a laptop running on Windows 10 Home Edition. My daughter, who lives many miles from me, has a laptop running on Windows 10 Pro edition. I have used Quick Assist a couple of times to help her and on both occasions Quick Assist worked fine.

    My wife has a desktop PC running on Windows 10 Home Edition.. Her PC and my laptop are in the same room and we both connect by Wi-Fi to the router. Just for interest I tried running Quick Assist between our two computers. The connection set up OK but dropped out after a couple of minutes each time I tried. Can anyone suggest why this should happen? Clearly, it is of no consequence in these circumstances but I am very interested to know what is going wrong.

    Hi Henry,

    It's possible that your computer's Internet Options is not set properly, that's why you're experiencing issues with Quick Assist. Kindly make sure that your computer is allowed to save encrypted pages by following these steps:

    • Type internet options on the search bar.
    • Click on Internet Options.
    • Click on Advanced.
    • Scroll down, and make sure that Do not save encrypted pages to disk is unchecked.
    • Click OK.

    Once done with the steps, try to use Quick Assist again, then check if the issue persists.

    Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need further assistance with your concern.
