Welcome to our series about the new AnyDesk Version 6, where we will show you how you can get the perfect experience out of AnyDesk, regardless of if you’re a professional IT Admin or if you just want to collaborate with your friends. Today, we’ll focus on the features that make the life of a network administrator more convenient!

Group Policies

Version
  1. Any Desk is available as either a free or premium version. The difference between the two is primarily based on the number of users able to connect. Professional or business users will require the purchase of an annual subscription service while single accounts are useful for limited or occasional use.
  2. Download the latest version of AnyDesk for Windows. A faster remote desktop is possible. If you need to work with someone from two different computers but under.
  3. In Windows 10, you decide when and how to get the latest updates to keep your device running smoothly and securely. To manage your options and see available updates, select Check for Windows updates. Or select the Start button, and then go to Settings Update & Security Windows Update.

Within a network, you most likely want all AnyDesk clients to work in the same way. You would like them to have the same settings and be able to set up new users quickly. In larger companies especially, you likely have thousands of devices that need to be managed and you probably don’t have the time to adjust settings for each one individually. Managing all device settings from one central point is now possible with Group Policies! New users are easily set up, updates are quickly implemented and all settings are centralized.

Wake-On-LAN

All of that sounds wonderfully convenient, but one simple hurdle can complicate everything: If a device in the network is in sleep mode, making it so you can’t access it. Or can you? Of course you can ask a co-worker to turn on their device. Or, you can now go the easier route and use AnyDesk’s new Wake-On-LAN feature! The name already tells you all you need to know: You simply wake up a sleeping device.

First, you’ll need to define which devices should have permission to wake each other up. They have to be in the same network in order to be part of your Wake-On-LAN group. You can simply add the devices that AnyDesk found via Auto-Discovery. One after the other, the devices of your Wake-On-LAN group will then try to wake up the sleeping device. Surely, one of them will be able to awaken it from its slumber and you can get to work!

Address Book for Android

You’ve probably heard of our Address Book, which is available for Professional and Power licenses. It helps you keep the clients in your network conveniently organized. If you have to offer remote support on the go, you should always have your contacts with you, which is why the address book is also now displayed on Android devices! This isn’t all that AnyDesk is capable of. Keep an eye on this blog for future articles about Version 6!

Deploying AnyDesk

AnyDesk provides an [MSI Installation] version for Windows.You can also generate custom MSI files at my.anydesk.com.To automatically deploy AnyDesk with MSI file, please use the command line:

anydesk.msi

Note: The installation via command line must run as admin.

It is also possible to use the exe file for automatic deployment. AnyDesk can be instructed to install itself from script:

anydesk.exe --install <location> --start-with-win

Note:
  • <location> must be a full qualified path (e.g. 'C:Program Files (x86)AnyDesk').
  • --start-with-win is to start AnyDesk with Windows, which is necessary for remote restart, etc.

Additional command parameters (after --install --start-with-win):

ParameterDescription
--remove-firstPerform an update or replace the existing installation
--create-shortcutsCreate start menu entry
--create-desktop-iconCreate a link on the desktop for AnyDesk
--silentDo not start AnyDesk after installation and do not display error message boxes.
--update-manuallyUpdate AnyDesk manually.
--update-disabledDisable automatic update of AnyDesk.
--update-autoUpdate AnyDesk automatically (default).

Automatically Setting a Password after Installation

For security reasons, a password can not be set from the command line directly as this would enable malicious users to spy the password from the command line in Task Manager. Instead, a pipe is used to set the password. For example, to set a password for an already installed AnyDesk, use this syntax in a batch file:

echo my_password123 | anydesk.exe --set-password

Example

To install AnyDesk, set a password and register a license key from a batch file at the same time, you could use the following code:

@echo off

AnyDesk.exe --install 'C:InstallAnyDeskHere' --start-with-win --silent --create-shortcuts --create-desktop-icon

echo licence_keyABC | 'C:InstallAnyDeskHereAnyDesk.exe' --register-license

Anydesk Update Version

Anydesk update version

echo password123 | 'C:InstallAnyDeskHereAnyDesk.exe' --set-password

This will install AnyDesk and wait for the installation to finish, then it will set a password in the newly installed AnyDesk.
