About AnyDesk
AnyDesk is a remote desktop application from AnyDesk Software GmbH, founded in Stuttgart in 2014. It provides remote control, file transfer and VPN functionality across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and more, and is widely used for IT support and remote assistance.
On Windows the same .exe can run in portable mode without admin rights or be installed for autostart and unattended access, while an .msi package, command-line options and Group Policy support enterprise deployment. Its DeskRT codec keeps data usage low, connections use TLS 1.2 and two-factor authentication is available. Commercial outgoing use requires a license; free sessions may time out.

Antivirus blocks it
Open-source apps are often flagged because they aren’t commercially signed. Check the SHA256 first, then allow it in your antivirus.
Won’t start, or a DLL is missing
Usually a missing runtime. Install Microsoft’s Visual C++ Redistributable (x64) and the .NET Desktop Runtime, then try again.
