It has the ability to make connections between systems running different operating systems. You can run it on Windows, Linux, Google Chrome OS and Mac OS. All established connections are encrypted to offer better protection against devices that want to intercept the information passed between the two connected devices. The program can be set to run as a system service allowing you connect to your remote computer and log on into your profile. The user interface is simple and clean just like on older versions of Teamviewer. Inside the main window you will find different buttons and links to do some changes to your settings. To accept incoming connections use the information displayed on the left side of the window. In order to connect to another system running Teamviewer complete the field located on the right side with the ID provided on the remote machine. Each computer who installs this program will receive a unique ID. The ID is generated based on different characteristics of the hardware. Random passwords are generated everytime but you can also set a personal password. By doing this, your Teamviewer will also start at Windows startup. The previous version, Teamviewer 10, is also posted.

There are two different types of connections that can be made to a partner ID.

The first one is Remote control which means that you get to see the remote desktop and also you will have full control over that computer. The second one is the File transfer mode where you can just transfer different files and folders between the connected computers. Inside options you can configure different fields like your display name, make the program to start as a service, set a custom password for incoming connections and so on.
