No,
I mean using JAWS over Teamviewer. I know it works just fine
if a sighted person’s doing the driving.
Well,
I have windows 10 home and it worked just fine with team
viewer 13 as of the summer of last year when I had a session
with a sighted person. I was running the latest JAWS and
obviously she was not. Since then I use the JAWS tandem.
The other person broke down and installed JAWS 19 on his
computer.
This
is true. You can connect from Home to Pro just fine, though.
RDP server isn’t available on 10 Home. This is why I was
curious if JAWS would work with something like Teamviewer. I
haven’t tested it yet, and may need to email VFO about it,
but if you’re already using Home it seems almost pointless
to upgrade to Pro just for RDP. I mean I’d do it, but only
on my equipment. I do tech support for the parents, though,
and I wouldn’t make them upgrade to Pro just so I can remote
in if I didn’t have to.
Hi,
This is only true if you have Windows 10 Pro.
Home won’t let you connect unattended to another Home
computer.
All the best

Remote Desktop allows
you to connect to your computer provided you know your home
computer’s IP address.
You probably also have
to set up port forwarding in your router to allow the
connection and of course you have to make sure Remote
Desktop is enabled for the computer you want to connect to.
If you don’t have a
fixed IP address which for a home connection is likely you
would have to set up something called a “dynamic DNS” which
allows you to set up an easy to remember name and if your IP
address changes the service will automatically update this
so that the name you set up still works, below is a website
with more information:

Lastly, if you use Jaws
you may have to contact Vispero, I think Remote Desktop may
not be something which works with a basic Jaws license, if I
go to Jaws > About it says the following in addition to
the version information etc.:
Upgrades Remaining: 2
Remote Access: Enabled
Tandem Direct: Disabled

HI All,
I work from home a bit.
I wanted to know if I am at work on my work computer is
there a way I can access my home computer? What would be a
good accessible solution?
Best,
