Edit the registry: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa380804(v=vs.85).aspx[^]

However...if this is a company machine you are doing this to in order to prevent the company accessing your machine, then be aware that you may be committing a disciplinary offence, depending on the company. It's company equipment, you are a company employee: they do (in every jurisdiction I know of) have a right to do as they see fit with it - and if that's company policy, you are opening yourself up to a world of pain if you start messing with it. Particularly as the suspicion is that you will be doing "private stuff" in work time that you don't want them to know about...

Your call: but I'd be very, very careful if I was you...

No I'm using it for my computer.But will this registry edit prevent teamviewer like software and will not effect to another service?

What exactly are you trying to achieve?
Why do you think you need this?

I want to stop any teamviewer like software in my pc.I will on teamviewer but no one can connect to me even if I give him password.Or this type of software will not run in my pc.

OriginalGriff 19-Jun-15 6:33am

Well...don't install it!
If you install it, and hand out passwords, then yes, it'll allow people in. That's what it's there for!

I know that. Ok. Leave it.Can you tell whether I can watch if specific software running or not in c#?In that case when one trying to run teamviewer then my background watcher will block it.I'll create list of programs to be blocked.

You can watch for processes by reviewing the process list:

But...I think teamviewer et all install services, so the process is likely to be running all the time once installed.

As I said: if you don;t want it, don't install it! :laugh:

actually I work for a support company and they need it for client who can't open teamviewer and explore their pc to other.

Anything did not work.I solved it by blocking some remote access software from running by windows registry.But except those softwares user can connect to remote.
