The technology that facilitates remote access to desktop computers is known as remote desktop software. This technology allows users to connect to another computer over the internet, enabling full access to its desktop interface, files, and applications from a different location. Popular solutions include TeamViewer, Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), and AnyDesk. Remote desktop access boosts productivity by allowing users to work from home or manage systems remotely, essential for troubleshooting, software updates, and remote collaboration.
