    Using Windows 7 (local pc) and Windows 10 (Remote pc)

    I have Teamviewer open, logged in, and remote PC is set for password-use. 

    I click 'Remote Control using password'.

    It tries to connect: succeeds

    Tries Authentication: succeeds

    Tries to connect: I see

    Initiating session
    Initializing display parameters

    Then after about 5 minutes, give or take... it closes, giving the 'thank you for playing fair'.

    No error, no nothing. Just the usual pop-up blurb that is associated with timeout of session.

    I keep getting "Connection blocked after timeout" followed by " Your license limits the maximum ..."

    how can I extend it also I'm using it for personal use... just to connect to my pc back at home to back up files or help my family out with simple tasks etc...

    Thank you for your information that TV will not reply even waited for 2 months. It is time to switch. Good bye TV and thanks for the time we had, it was great, until I got blocked from accessing my home computer anymore

    Sad to see my TeamViewer no longer works. I continuously get a message that I'm using the service for commercial use when I'm not.

    I've used this service to share images with friends. I see that you now automatically see any log in from Windows servers as commercial which is why I'm having issues.

    Time to look for a new service as this no longer works for me.

    Hello, 

    im just using Teamviewer to connect to my own PC or a Buddys PC.
    Now, after a session to my own PC, Teamviewer told me that my 7-day just started.
    Is there a way to get the "free" license back?

    Thanks in Advance,
    Fabian

    I previously gotten help through their e-mail, since I have been flagged multiple times, even though I am a free user.

    Same annoying issue.

    I am not using TV for work purposes, im connecting to my home computer to do private stuff, yet it keeps blocking my connection.

  • bigelow

    I constantly had a sign that the system was used for commercial purposes and I have 5 minutes. BUT !!!!
    1. the system does not even give 5 minutes, knocks out after 1 minute.
    Worked only with their home devices.

    How can I remove this restriction?

    Team viewer stopped working saying that it detected a commercial use!
    It was a teamviewer mistake.
    I need to access my computer!

    I have exactly the same issue.

    I use TV only to help friends and I get "suspicious commercial usage"

    TV support: What should I do?

    @Natascha: I have exactly the same issue.

    Please have a look at my account.

    So i filled out the form like a month ago, little over one week ago i got an email saying they sorted it. But they didn't, still got the same popups as before. So i wrote back saying it didn't work. Over a week later, no response.

    Now i filled out a new form, for the 3'th time. This is getting annoying really fast tbh.

    How i said!
    Remote connection disconnects after ± 2 minutes.
    I have the free licence, and use this only for my father his laptop to help.

    TV says this is a comercial use and stop.

    Just wanted to add my "me too". I've been using Teamviewer to help out family and friends but suddenly this is commercial use. I have submitted a ticket, so I will see what happens.

    My advice? Give TeamViewer the boot and install  A n y d e s k instead. Takes a bit of getting used to, but I now prefer it to Teamviewer. No more accusations of using software in a commercial environment. Goodbye TeamViewer.
