What are the chances you would share your wrapper. I am curious about the coding of it.
We use gotoassist which has that built in.

I'd be happy to post it. It is a compiled AutoIt Script. I'll post it as an article. I think I know where I stashed the source.

For me at the moment only Teamviewer, even if is not free, but I prefer to pay and stay painless, especally in case you need it for daily asistance. vnc in all its variation is a no go for me. vnc is uncomfortable and slow and unstable.
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

Interesting, I have used it for years and find it the complete opposite; have never had any such problems with it.

Yeah, well I pay for teamviewer. And I am stuck on V12.
I support a TON of computers, and it SUCKS to upgrade. If I go to V14, I cannot share my screen with a V12. If they have someone else who is supporting them on V13, we both get hung out to dry.
THIS is my biggest beef with TeamViewer. There should be an easy way to at least have the last 2-3 versions supported (downregulate the new version when connected to an old version). Honestly... NEVER ran into this with VNC. Usually just the problem that the user does not have it.
If I could tell you the number of times I've used GoToMeeting to connect, and download TeamViewer, or finish setting up TV to get me able to connect... (Unfortunately GTM does not handle Administrative prompts at all!)
Ugghhh...

We use ScreenConnect here, corporate-wide, and it is a very capable product. In addition to the standard desktop use, you can also interact with remote machines using a phone or tablet and that is nice. We have around twenty sites and all are interconnected through leased lines on a private network and we can access all of the manufacturing sites from the corporate office. It saves us a ton of travel.

+1 for Screenconnect, been using it for at least 5 years
it can be installed for unattended use or temporary install for guest use
fast stable product and actively developed, now owned by Connectwise
lol, sounds like I work for them but just a customer

I use RealVNC which is one of the best systems around, and the cost really is peanuts. I also use TeamViewer for support work but it is rather more expensive.

Whenever anyone sees "software subscription," they should think extortion. If the software firm isn't using their subscription to extort you now, they will in the future.

used to use TeamViewer.
Now we have switched to SimpleHelp.
Still costs, but works better, with more features.

I don't use VNC myself, but a few weeks ago the Security Now podcast had a warning that there was some common library shared by just about all VNC implementations that had a bunch of vulnerabilities...so whichever one you settle on, don't get an out of date version...

On Windows, I use for years TightVNC, works just peachy fine. And has a file transfer mode...
On Linux, I use TigerVNC or RealNC. Connecting to RealVNC server on my RPi4s from TightVNC works also flawlessy...

I've had some luck with Anydesk. I used to use Teamviewer on my project PC's but it kept getting flagged as commercial use and I'd have to e-mail them every other month to get my account unflagged.
I for my headless/VMs did have some promise with SPICE[^].
If I'm stuck with VNC, I usually used TightVNC. I've found VNC slow with higher resolutions and color depths.

We use Ultra VNC and Dameware. Never had an issue with Ultra VNC, but I think they removed the ability to send and receive files. Dameware I love, especially the ability to remote install if you have the right credentials. Easy to use, fast, and works great in a corporate environment.

I usually use TigerVNC, it works OK. Also, there's Remmina, which can connect to both VNC and RDP servers, but has some minor shortcomings in terms of supported features.

Land?
But if it wasn't filled with ice it would be filled with water (Well, liquid water anyway).
How does that make it land?
|
|
|
|
|
A lake is inland, it's not part of the sea! Doh! 
|
|
|
|
|
But that's not land, right?
Or is this another nuance of the english language that I've missed?
|
|
|
|
|
Well it's still on land. But if there was a lake there it could be advertised as deepest lake on earth...
|
|
|
|
|
And of course it never rains in Antarctica - it's the driest place on Earth according to QI - so the lake could never fill up.

Fall wouldn't bother you, sudden stop at the bottom is bad.
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

I assume it's because of the shape of the earth. Also, did we just discover Earth's anus?

No, I'm pretty certain that's in Luton.

Could be the ejections there.
