Unattended computer name suggestion
I am aware I can personalise the computer name, however initially I often have difficulty identifying a newly installed computer. I often ask client to install the unattended installer but when I look at my list of Unattended Computers I cannot tell which is their computer. e.g. list shows : LAPTOP-QH3U61IJ LAPTOP-U1MTFGMK DESKTOP-R0T1MQU DESKTOP-9MM73BK It is not practical to try all those online, nor would I want to interrupt another computer.

I am unable to connect to clients - receiving Connection Lost error
I cannot connect to any clients via zoho assist. These are clients who have been set up for months for unattended remote access. I've used updated version of both Chrome and Explorer, but always receive the following error: Connection Lost! Reconnection attempt under progress... I've tried uninstalling, then reinstalling, which was unsuccessful. Some of these clients are behind firewalls, some are not.
Have there been any issues using Chrome of Firefox with assist in the last few days?
I have been unable to get any sessions work with those browsers. Internet Explorer has had some success, but not 100%.

Unattended Support - Server loses ability to login - Black Screen Only
After installing Zoho Assist unattended access ; I successfully tested; but quickly after installing the client the login screen has gone black, and I am unable to wake it up or pass credentials via Zoho Unattended Access or even via the local keyboard. This happened pretty much immediately after adding Zoho Unattended service to the server. Server 2012 R2 is the OS. Any known issues that have some workarounds/resolutions I can try. I hate to have to remove the product as it seems very promising

I have been evaluating zoho assist. I am very happy with the product, but there is a small issue which I hope can be resolved. So I invite someone to join a session for assistance.

Unattended Client tray icon not shwoing on some client PCs
Hi. Ive having an occassional problem where unattended client PCs don't always show the tray icon. This is often not a problem, however does cause difficulties where the client PC has access disabled. This can usually be fixed by reinstalling the client s/w but recently had a situation where it did not. What causes this problem and what can i do to reliably fix please...? Thanks.
Unattended Remote Access
We started using Zoho to support our Customers remotely. We do most of our work using the Unattended Support feature. The problem we had is that after installing the unattended app, our remote machines would show that they were "Offline" when we know that they are online. To fix this we had to reinstall the Unattended Client app. It would occur again, requiring an additional reinstall. After a few weeks of this we went back to Go To Assist from Citrix. I would love to come back to ZOHO, but
Start Session isn't working in Windows desktop client
Since the latest client update on my Win 10 PC (zohotray.exe 1.0.2.7 23/5/16) I can't Start Session. Nothing happens in the window when I click. It works ok when you right-click the system tray icon, bottom right, and choose Start Session there. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Any other thoughts? Thanks, Mike.
Android App - can not open any unattended computers from list
Hi One of our employees has 3 x computers in his unattended list, available and working from the computer / web based system without problem. However in the Android App he can not click to open any of these computers, it simply does nothing, tap on the computer name (online with green icon) and literally nothing happens. He has a Nexus 5X phone on Android 6.0.1 However I myself have a HTC 10 also on Android 6.0.1 and it works fine. Any ideas what we can try on his phone?

Android App - mouse pointer design request ...
Firstly thank you for getting the Android App running for Assist. Can I make a request though please; Can you change the focus point for the mouse so your finger is not covering the cursor when dragging / clicking? What I mean is, currently you have to tap the screen exactly on the mouse cursor, meaning you can not see what you are about to click as your finger is over the mouse cursor at that moment of dragging to a location on screen ... Can you make it so you can touch for example, just below

Losing Click on a Mac
Hello: I tried Zoho last night, as I'm evaluating remote customer support tools. I helped a client with a Quicken Mac 2015 issue. I noticed several key issues during our 45-minute session. (1) On irregular intervals, left mouse clicking would become inactive. I was no longer able to select anything on the user's computer. Having the user click on their screen seemed to return clicking control to me. (2) Similarly, I went to Finder to search for a file. When I returned to Quicken by clicking on its

Problem with session reports number

Unattended Access
We downloaded the FREE version of Assist to determine if this is a better solution then we currently use. We added one computer under remote access - when I select Add Computer under Unattended Computers it downloads file. Saying Unattended Access has been configured but does not show option or Prompt for information for the remote computer I am trying to add. Is this because it is the Free version and I am not seeing or able to add computers or am I missing another menu somewhere?
Take Screenshot in remote session
Hi, Great tool Zoho Assist. I think it would be a good idea to be able to take a screenshot of a remote session. I am fully aware I can just tap print screen, but this will include my browser window and anything else I have on screen - and also the remote session resolution will not be good. By having a "Take Screenshot" option, it could take a shot of the remote screen and save it as a native resolution image. In addition to this, the option to record a remote session would also be beneficial. Both
Run as service password
When trying to run as a service, the box for credentials pops up, but it will not take local admin credentials. I put in the local admin username and password and it does not elevate the session. It just says incorrect username/password. I have had this problem on both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 machines. I know the credentials are correct because when I go on site and log in, the credentials work properly.
Doubt about license
Hi, My company just bought one license of Assist. Im the one suppose to be using that license but when I log in with my user it says is still a free trial. Is there anyway I can use that license please let me know Regards
Zoho Assist Android app
Hi I know I can connect to a remote client using a web browser on my Android device, but the quality is poor. Choosing Actual size makes it readable, but I can't move the mouse pointer around, and the screen scrolls uncontrollably. Do you plan to release an Android app for Zoho Assist? Regards Preston
unattended access offline if service is started while offline
hi! I have noticed an unwanted behavior with Zoho Assist unattended mode. if a computer is started while it is not connected to the internet, Zoho Assist will not go online once the connection is on. service restart fixes the problem, but it is not a solution. I suspect this can be quickly fixed, because agent does reconnect, if it was online and the connection goes down for some time. seems that only the service startup while offline creates a problem. I hope you got my point. thanx!
Unattended session loses connection
I am experiencing a frequent issue. I utilize the unattended sessions for all of our devices. I am finding that I consistently lose connection to many machines and the only way to get it back is to either restart the unattended service or to reboot the computer. These machines have not lost Internet connectivity or gone to sleep.
Not able to type characters in VirtualBox VM while using Assist
I am connected to a machine using Zoho Assist, and I have a Windows 7 VM up in VirtualBox. Yesterday I was able to type a character into (for example) Notepad, but once I entered that first character, every other character I typed outputted that same first character. Now today I am unable to type in any characters. Everything I type does not output to the screen. I have tried rebooting the VM and also the host machine that I am connecting to.
Unattended Computers - Status
Hello, When I view my unattended computers after logging into meetinglab.zoho.com, I have noticed three different statuses, one of which (yellow) I cannot understand.
