Depending on your macOS version and MDM settings, ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Remote Access requires security permissions for remote input, screen recording and disk access. 

We request these permissions at login to ensure they're in place when a remote session is needed. This allows for immediate assistance without delays.

To resolve, end users can do one of the following:

• Grant the requested permissions 
• Select the Do not show me this message again checkbox to switch to less intrusive system notifications. See Grant Required Permissions for the Remote Assist Agent on macOS Devices to learn more.

The Remote Assist Agent installation process typically takes between 30 to 120 minutes to complete. Wait till the Remote Assist Agent installation process is complete before proceeding to launch Remote Assist.

The ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Remote Assist Agent installation can sometimes be delayed as the installation process prioritizes the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent (JCA) and the agent-app before attempting to install the Remote Assist Agent. For Windows devices, the installation process might take longer due to more complex components. 

If the Remote Assist Agent isn’t installed even after 2 hours, you can try troubleshooting manually. See Troubleshoot Remote Assist Installation, to learn more.

If the Remote Assist Service toggle under Settings > Features is enabled, then the Remote Assist app is automatically installed and updated by the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent on all compatible devices.

The Remote Assist app is an intentionally separate application from the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent; this ensures admins are able to assist/remediate customer issues even if the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent is not running. However, the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent is required to install and update the Remote Assist app. 

On Linux, Remote-Assist is supported on x86_64 and ARM architecture. See ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent Compatibility, System Requirements, and Impacts to learn more. 

Remote Assist only supports the English (Qwerty) keyboard for input. Other language keyboards may not work correctly.

To remove Remote Assist from your device, go to Settings > Features, and toggle the Remote Assist Service to Off. This will disable the service and also remove the app from all of your devices. For this toggle to be visible, the ºÚÁϺ£½Ç91Èë¿Ú Agent must be installed, and the device must be in an active state. 

The Remote Assist client is installed by default to ensure that it is available to troubleshoot and resolve issues on an end user's device when the need arises.
