4 Access your PC remotely

As long as your computer is turned on and connected to the internet, you should be able to access it from any device that has a web browser, including another Windows PC or even a tablet. Open the browser on the computer you’re using to access your PC remotely and visit www.dwservice. net. Log in using the email address and password you provided during setup, then click Agents. You’ll see your home computer listed on the dashboard, bearing the descriptive name you gave the ‘agent’. Click this.

If you want to access your files remotely, tap ‘Files and Folders’, then navigate your folders as you would if you were using File Explorer while sitting in front of the computer. To send a file to your computer from the local device, navigate to the folder in which you want to save it, then click the icon showing a cloud with an arrow inside it pointing up. Select the file on your local device, then click Upload.

To retrieve a file from your remote PC, navigate to the folder in which it resides, then select it and click the icon of a cloud with an arrow pointing down on top of it.

Dwservice also lets you interact with your computer directly – not just the files and folders on its drive. Tap the grid of nine squares at the top of the page in your browser to return to the dashboard, then tap Screen. After a few seconds, your remote Windows screen will appear, and you can interact with it directly using the keyboard and mouse attached to the local computer – or by tapping if you’re using a tablet. In the screenshot below, for example, we’re remotely connecting to our Windows computer through the Safari browser on our ipad.
