Access PCs with pcAnywhere installed without having pcAnywhere installed on the local system.
Remote management applications are pretty popular these days and one of the options available is the pcAnywhere Remote Control application which is able to connect you to a PC running pcAnywhere.
In a nutshell, the application offers control over a PC that's running Symantec's pcAnywhere server. As a portable application, there is no requirement to install this program, making it perfect to carry around on a portable drive like a USB thumb drive or a memory card.
Though pcAnywhere Remote Control may seem like a rather basic freeware utility, you are able to add multiple hosts. You may run your remote control instance in full screen.
Even though pcAnywhere is no longer in active development, this little client application performs well with systems that still run the remote control server.
