Troubles getting started with GotoMyPC
Have just started a trial on GoToMyPC, but am unable to make it work.
Have installed GotoMyPC on my office-computer - Windows 10 - with no errors (via VPN - I am unable to get to work)
When I call GotoMyPC on my home-computer, I connect OK, get the message "switching user.. screen will be available momentarily", and after a while "GoToMyPC has encountered a problem and needs to end this session. Please try to re-connect o "<pc>".
I have tried to restart, to uninstall and reinstall, but problem persists.
In the eventviewer I have some g2avrs.exe-errors, but from I can see in the forum, this is a common problem.
Any idea how to troubleshoot?
Thank You

Hi, Bjørn.
When you installed via VPN, it sets up GoToMyPC in a different environment that is not compatible due to it being virtual -- and not physical. I'm afraid GoToMyPC was built upon the concept of installing at the local level, and broadcasting what's physically on the host screen. If there isn't a physical screen for GoToMyPC to capture, then you'll never have a desktop to 'see' remotely.
Hopefully that makes sense. If you can get someone to install the software locally, then you'll have not problem connecting.
