TeamViewer still asking me for password even disabled

In TeamViewer 13, when i disable password, the password is blank meaning that i don't need to enter the password. But when i connect , it still ask me for password and i don't know why.

Please help I'm using Linux Mint

Scotty's answer appears factually wrong. As TeamViewer allows users to disable all authentication and passwords, why does Teamviewer fail to accept connections to users who have disabled the password?

This answer might be correct generally but not in all cases. Please update for those with Tensor or Corporate licenses.

Thanks for posting.

Put simply, there is no way to "disable" the password so that you can access a device with just an ID.

This would be a massive security flaw and there is no way to connect to a device with TeamViewer without some form of authentication.

If you remove the personal password, then you simply don't have a personal password and would need to connect using a random password or other authentication method.

I hope this answers your question.
