I manage my kids machines via TeamViewer, and they have all now started giving this message when I try to connect, meaning that I cannot connect.
Nothing has been changed, and I have checked the settings and none of them have been set to request confirmation, they all are still set to allow access.

Why has this happened and how do I fix it, rebooting does not help.

    I did change back to allow but I'm still having the same problem

  • This is strange! Happened to my machine as well. Had to change that same setting back

    I did change following options:

    Extras => Options => Advanced  => Show advanced options  =>  Advanced settings to this computer  =>  Full access.

    Afterwhile I had the same problem, then I uninstall and install the te Team Viewer and now its works

    Maybe @tlamming could try to uninstall it, too?

    I just built a new Desktop and had the exact same issue, suddenly I've been uanble to control any of the other computers I've set up under my account, and mine too was set to "confirm all" (aside from showing my cursor on their screen after clicking "show screen").  Changing that back to Full Access has restored the previous functionality of connecting and just working.
