How do I make teamviewer stop asking for password when logging in?

New computer, new installation of teamviewer. teamviewer set up exactly like 2 other computers but when I try to login it says to use the password displayed on my remote computer. How do I change that so it doesn't ask for password?

    Hi @Batbytes,

    Welcome to the TeamViewer Community!

    For remote connections without password input, you may try to Connect to a remote device (unattended access). Once the settings have been set up properly, the connections will start within seconds without a manual password.

    However, regarding the password for signing in TeamViewer account, it is essentially important for the account's security authentication. TeamViewer offers the option of Keep me signed in will help to save the account address. I hope it at least helps a bit to simplify the login steps.

    Let me know if you think the information above is helpful!

    The instructions given here (Connect to a remote device (unattended access).) do not match what teamviewer looks like. I can't find any place to "Manage this device". Looks like your information etc. is outdated.

    Hi @Batbytes,

    I am so sorry if the provided information caused any confusion.

    The interface is the new view of TeamViewer, which can be downloaded from the TeamViewer download page. We encourage all the users to try out the new view and we would love to hear the feedback about your experience too!

    Anyway, If you are looking to set up Easy Access on TeamViewer Classic, look for Grant easy access and follow the prompts to finish the account assignment on TeamViewer. That is for skipping the password on remote connections with the TeamViewer account.

    Is this screenshot more familiar to you? Hope to hear your thoughts!

    I have the same problem. Same versions on two PC's, one is asking for password for every session, the other one never does. I contacted support but they were clueless.
