    Hello,

    Under Team and other assistance software, we can only turn off the PC but for the screen, you have to get up.

    For the keyboard, it is yours that replaces the one of the host or you can use the virtual keyboard of the latter.

    Thank you for your response.
    However, the keyboard of my PC does not work remotely (I am in Paris, and the remote PC is 100km away!) only the mouse works to control the remote PC.
    I don't know how to access the virtual keyboard?

    My idea was to create a BATCH file placed on the desktop (so it's visible via TeamViewer) that would turn off the screen. And to reactivate the remote screen, another BATCH file placed at the root of C: on the remote PC that just needs to be launched. The directory function remains available with TeamViewer even when the screen is off.
    The only hiccup: I don't know how to create the content of the batch files.

      Curious. Didn't the host prohibit you from performing certain actions on the PC?
      Normally yours becomes theirs, but I doubt that any file would have an effect on a screen, especially if it's a business one.
      It's a device distinct from the unit.

    Okay, I managed to find the virtual keyboard.
    The two PCs belong to me. The remote PC is used to control surveillance cameras. The virtual keyboard does not have the F1, F2 keys, etc., to turn off the screen.

      No, there is no button.
      If I turn off my PC, the screen stays in standby.
      Windows only acts on Windows.

      And it should be noted that even if the screen is off, it does not prevent you from seeing the desktop on your computer.

      But you have to keep the PC on because it's not Team that can start it from so far away.
