Using Acronis Cyber Protect Connect Quick Assist for remote troubleshooting 

Introduction

In some cases, an Acronis Support representative may ask you for a remote session in order to access your computer remotely. This is done to help troubleshoot a possible issue that you may have. 

Acronis respects your privacy, and no confidential or sensitive data is viewed or gathered (See also: Acronis Privacy Statement).

In most cases, we use Zoom for remote access and troubleshooting. However, in certain cases we may ask you to conduct a remote session with Acronis Cyber Protect Connect.

Solution

  1. Download Acronis Cyber Protect Connect Quick Assist application and launch it:
  2. Launch the app. This application is a portable executable so installation is not required (you can just launch it once it is downloaded).
    • Windows: by default, the app doesn't require Admin rights. Still, an elevation to Admin is required to allow remote support agent to see and control applications that run with Admin rights (including other Acronis applications), Alt+Tab menu and to help with installing/removing programs.

       

    • macOS: you need to grant this application system permissions to capture and control your screen and relaunch the application for changes to apply.
       
  3. Once ready, provide your Acronis Support representative "Computer ID" and "Access Code":
