Hate the new interface, want to go back but no option

The new interface is horrid, initially I accepted the little popup that offered me to try it but now I want to switch back and can't find such an option.

Hi everyone,

Thank you all for all the feedback provided about the new interface of TeamViewer Remote.

We're sorry to hear you're having trouble with it. Therefore, I would like to provide some information that may help you:

With the release of TeamViewer Remote, TeamViewer's best practices for using TeamViewer have been emphasized to ensure even more security for our users.

At the moment, to be able to access TeamViewer Options on the TeamViewer Remote interface, our users are required to log in with their TeamViewer accounts.

TeamViewer Remonte is meant for devices that receive and do remote connections. If the device only receives connections, you can use TeamViewer Host (No need to log in with any account, the Options are available right after the installation, allows the configuration of Easy Access, ID and Password are easily visible for connections; licensed users can customize their Host, free users can download it from our website.)

Please know that it's possible to switch back to the TeamViewer Classic interface by clicking the button New version on the top right of TeamViewer Remote. If you don't see the button, please follow the steps below:

Open TeamViewer Remote and sign in with your account.
Click the gear icon (⚙) ➜ Go to this device's settings.
In the General tab, you will have the option Use new TeamViewer interface ➜ uncheck this option, and restart the TeamViewer services so that the TeamViewer Classic interface can load.

I hope this can help! 🍀

Please let us know if we can help any further. 🙋‍♀️

Best, Carol

Hi ggnore

Thanks for posting!

To switch back to the old interface in the official build, you can do this under Options > General uncheck "Use new interface" and restart the software.

The insider build does not have the ability to use the old interface at the moment. If you are on the insider Build, you will need to Opt out under Options > Advanced. Then uninstall and download the previous version. You can download this here > https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/windows/
