If the full TeamViewer client is not installed on the aforementioned Operating systems, a run-once version of TeamViewer is downloaded when you try to join a TeamViewer session as the supported party. On mobile (Android, iOS) the respective TeamViewer client (Quick Support or Pilot) is required. We recommend installing the TeamViewer application as this will reduce the time required to join a session. However, please note that you will need administrator access on your system to install TeamViewer.</p><p>To install the TeamViewer App, follow the below steps</p><ul><li>Download the TeamViewer installer by invoking the following URL: <a href="https://download.teamviewer.com/download/TeamViewer_Setup.exe" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">https://download.teamviewer.com/download/TeamViewer_Setup.exe</a></li><li>Run the downloaded application.
