Teamviewer Client Shortcuts

Lee Mathews posted an interesting Teamviewer tip on his new blog aimed at computer administrators. He explained how to create shortcuts to client computers on the computer of the administrator to quickly access the client's PCs without having to enter data. All that would be needed to connect is to click on the shortcut to launch the process.
Teamviewer is a remote desktop software that can be used to easily connect to other computers. The greatest benefit is that it is easy to setup even for users without broad technical knowledge and that it can be used for other purposes than remote desktop access inlcuding presentations or virtual private networks.
We have reviewed the Teamviewer application before here on Ghacks, so take a closer look if you never heard of it before or want an overview of what it has to offer to you.
Teamviewer works by entering an unique ID and password in the software to connect to a client remotely. The Teamviewer shortcut eliminates the need to enter and remember the ID and password, so that you can establish connections with a click without having to enter data first.
Keep in mind though that anyone with access to your local system may also get access to those shortcuts. If that is an issue, move them to an encrypted container or password protected folder so that access is only granted to authorized users.
The basic idea is to create Teamviewer shortcuts in a folder on the hard drive, and use those whenever a remote connection needs to be established to a client computer.
Lee created a folder for each client and one personal folder. So all that needs to be done is to create a shortcut to Teamviewer, right-click on it and select Properties. The following parameters need to be added in the target box of the shortcut: -i [tv ID number] –Password -[tv password]. (without the [] brackets)
Lee failed to list another possible shortcut: -m filetransfer would initiate file transfer mode. Other options are presentation to start a presentation session or starting the application without the -m parameter for remote support.

Does it come back after every “moment” update?
Yeah right.. Like this is going to stop defender from running =) This is comedy gold right here.
no ‘about the author’ paragraph?
For permanent disable defender is if removed complete from system no just change permission folder.
Just this is joke.
simpler, load Autoruns (SysInternals)
– filter “Defender”
– untag all entries
– reboot
nothing has changed since my 1st modification years ago
I wouldn’t disable Defender imho, it has too many hidden roots inside Windows itself. One time I tried to uninstall it using brute force scripts and then the Onedrive feature stopped working definitely. A reinstallation was needed and since those times I prefer to maintain Defender untouched. It’s a better method to install another antivirus and it will disable Defender in a safer and easier mode (e.g., Avast is the best in this way, and also Panda Cloud Free is good too).
You can not stop defender from running in background or remove it without some penalty. All you can do is to limit telemetry.
@borts,
It’s probably Smartscreen which is preventing WD from being disabled. Get rid of that and the problem should be solved: https://thegeekpage.com/disable-windows-defender-smartscreen/#How_to_disable_the_Windows_Defender_SmartScreen_via_Local_Group_Policy_Editor
Remove Windows and go for Linux.
Linux sucks dude. Besides it’s not comparable to Windows, these OSes are in different classes entirely.
I use Linux as my daily driver. It’s far more stable than Windows. When’s the last time you used Linux, 2010?
@basingstoke
You’re right, dude. Bro, linux is just a bunch of code that starts before the OS, dude. Brobrodude, that shit ain’t even got emojis, dudebrodudeman! Dudebro, it’s no way near as cool as Windows with its hardcoded abilities to make money off the user, bro. Yo brodude man, you’re the coolest dude ever man, bro. Dude.
Lol what? Windows 7 doesn’t come with any Emojis
Download Autoruns and remove the checkmark from Windows Defender. It doesn’t remove it, but it will never run. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns
Just use “Defender Control”:

Per this video,

it also works on Windows 11 too…
Win Defender, is completly the most succesful free-built in antivirus of Microsoft. Really nice product. Saved my ass a lot of times. Has updated malware database, completly strong defence
from whatever smart screen disables. Or if you want better and more upgrated (paid) program,
you can go further. But defender is always on your side.
Why would one disable Windows (or Microsoft) Defender in the first place?. I consider this to be playing with fire big time. Everybody knows that if one is using another A-V, Defender will be disabled on its own and won’t be in one’s way.
Why would I want to disable Windows Defender in the first place? It’s a great anti virus in my opinion. Been using it since Windows 8 and and never had a problem or a virus. Why mess with a good thing, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
How a ridiculous article!
I am thoroughly stunned.
Why Should You Disable First-Party Windows Defender?
I can only think that it is “malice or perversely intention (want you to buy a third-party AV where you can expect a back margin)” to guide invalidation without showing the premise.
No sane company will use third-party closed source programs (such as AV).
As I thought, “Ghacks Technology News” seems to be coming to downfall.
