How much do they charge ? I have always wondered - their software is really good. I am using the free version to remote access the server of the local school ( I am the hobby IT support there).

Anydesk works very very well.
In case this is not suitable for you, there is the already included in windows "Quick assist" which is slow, but it works.
Hope this helps! ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

See discussion below starting at the leave (you see there facts are minor, points are major):The Lounge[^]
It does really to seem to correspond to the "Straw Poll" see here: Survey Results - How long have you been coding?[^] that here we have only a bunch of old furts living from their memoris, but not able to be up to date.
Expirience? Yes, maybe in some displicines.
But sorry, I see this daily in Q/A, here (at CP) one can obviously only answer the simple things (template answers, some simple cout/cin Qs and small parts of c# but one does mainly accuse members to ask bad questions, ...).
More difficult things will be redirected to SO.
The only exception from my point of view is _Richard Deeming_ who seems to be the only one, to be able to answer also the more/most difficult questions. And no, I don't know him, have no profits to mention him!
Again sorry, but hopefully @chris-maunder will see that message
[Edit]
You old furts and I'm one of them, most probably higher then the average here.
But the message I like to transfer:
Be respectfull also above all for beginners....!
Of course after 10...40 years programming a lot of questions looks very very simple, but please remember when you started....
And yes, all the homework and 'I'm late' is trash, I'm not writing about them,
I like that we give a _big_ hand to the beginners and take them serious

I just break into the game industry, now working at EA!  
At any rate, I see many younglings at EA....
Come to think of it, I see many younglings in all my previous job.. and oldlings too. Both in fact.

You imagine that the "issues" you describe are issues other people have.
They are your issues, and your lack of understanding of English may be a factor in your confusion.
Your "old furts" inference from one CP anonymized survey is absurd: out of 15+ million members, responses of the relatively few that respond may indicate only a weak trend, or nothing.
Stop complaining, and name-calling, and go where you are more comfortable.

Good response Bill.
Software Zen: delete this;

Makes this site unwelcoming.
Maybe the OP has a point, as proven by Bill?

We can be or not be whatever we are or not are...
But reading the whole thread below, he is not definitivelly better than what he claims that we are.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

And yes, all the homework
I actually like the homework questions. That is, if it is not on the last day, begging to simply hand over the answer, or having to choose for some university stud that is late to choose between the examples he found (for a test designed to verify if he could do a for-loop!)
If you want a career in this field you have to do the effort, especially with that amount of competition. And more importantly, if you skip understanding the answer and copy paste, imagine going to work, where it is assumed the knowledge of the curriculum is actually there. You could create expensive bugs. Imagine, if you will, that surgeons had SO site and skipped homework by copying answers 
As for knowing how to ask a question, one should learn that before starting to program. So, some background, expected output/results, actual output/results and the relevant part of the code where the exception occurs. Don't go to your boss and just say "there's something burning" - indicate where, what and if the fire-department should be called.
I'll make exceptions for kids ofcourse, one cannot expect them to have learned all of that yet, so one is more patient. Sometimes its homework, sometimes a hobby.
I do agree that my tone could be friendlier. Still working on that.

There's a few of those, and there a small competition each year.

I'm lucky enough to have won the competition to be "Richard Deeming" for the past 44 years. Hoping to make it 45 in a row this year.

In most(?) parts of the MS- ecosystem - stuff (e.g. Notepad) <crlf> is used to seperate lines for textual data.
To know what I mean, look at a textfile where lines are seperated by only <cr> with notepad...
Now in MS-Teams it looks like they changed their mind and followed the Unix standard and use only <cr>, try: Copy paste a text from MS-Teams and paste it to notepad.
... either way not really earth-shattering

For nitpickers like you, I mean <cr><lf>.
Btw. let me also be nitpicking... Your statement: "IDs should never be sortable. It must be a meaningless operation.", see your post The Lounge[^]
*lol*... Happy surviving with that. 'Not sortable' means also 'not able to make an index on it'. Think about it and why your DBs are that slow

No, it does not.

Ok, then please explain how to index a thing you can't enumerate. Please ...

Who says you can't enumerate it? Of course you can enumerate it.

|
|
|

Sorry, but enumerable means sortable... in case you say no to that, then I doubt your statements
[Edit] sorry, I'm not native English
but enumerable means implicitly also sortable, at least for me
[/Edit]
[Edit1]
But maybe because of my lack of English I misinterpreted your statement, mentioned above. In case that happens, sorry.
For me everyting is 'sortable' because we can introduce for everyting our 'sort rule'

Nope.
enumerable
ADJECTIVE
mathematics
able to be counted by one-to-one correspondence with the set of all positive integers.

|

|

Rather than all the arguing, how about you explain your statement that ids should not be sortable.
|
|
|
|
|
You have omitted the keyword meaningfully from the quote.
An ID is a substitute key. It should not have a meaning.
It's usually an incremented integer for practical reasons, which is sortable per definition but the order has no meaning, it could just as well be a GUID.
<edit>my bad, I see the quote has been edited
