    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.

    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?

    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  *bleep* 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.

    You are not the only one. It seems teamviewer policies have changed and commercial detection algorithms have become more sensitive. Unlocking may work but only for a while.

    The good news is that you can look for other free solutions now. Because I used teamviewer for years (I have a commercial license too) and thought it was perfect I never looked at what new solutions appeared on the remote control market. But actually there are several other good solutions for personal and free remote desktop control available now!

    I wont post them here because it would not be fair to teamviewer. Google is your friend.

    I've just updated the Android APP, and the one star reviews caught my eye. There are countless of users complaining of the same thing, and there's the catch: TV can't edit your comments mentioning competitors. I guess that this might be the only way to make them react / change their minds / policy, lowering the global note and systematically mentioning competitors.

    I recently install TeamViewer in my new mac machine and the free version change to commercial version.

    I am connected for my personal use only, how can i reactivate free license.

    I am rarely using team viewer to connect.

    I am a student, I am using the free product. But, after installing TEAMVIEWER 14, it shows the note "your license limits the maximum session duration to a partner immediately reconnects are blocked"
    Pls, help me. Many thanks

    Hi,

    Teamviewer is telling my that i use it for commercial purposes and is messing with my connections.

    Me and my girlfriend live in different countries for the time being due to circumstances but we used to play an MMO together. Since my schedule is a bit more forgiving, i use teamviewer to log into her PC and check the status of the MMO, to verify that it is still running (a game where you sort of need to be afk 24/7 and never log out). I do that basically daily and sometimes couple times a day. While i get it that algorithms might think it's commercial use, i do not agree with it. I have nothing to gain from doing it, it's just for an personal hobby between me and my girlfriend. Nothing commercial about it.

     

    I've tried once to get it removed, the commercial use limitations but it keeps insisting i'm using it commercially. Is there anything i can do?

     

    Thanks,

    Eero

    I received a notification "commercial use is detected." It's funny when its talk to me about commercial use if I connect from my phone to my computer in another room. Moreover, I don’t use a viewer for commercial purposes at all. Your connection type definition algorithm is incorrect. My login is **Please do not post email addresses**

    Moderators - why do you keep censoring people when they recommend an alternative? If Teamviewer is stopping people using their product, surely it's reasonable for people to recommend alternatives that they may try instead?
