One thing to note is that doing this does not prevent them from overriding any restrictions you may have in place. Once they type in the computer name, the remote tools EXE should then take over and allow them to remotely control the computer. Once you've got the shortcut created it's then just a matter of your user double-clicking on the VBS file and being presented with an input box. ObjShell.Run "C:\RemoteTools\cmrcviewer.exe ComputerName \\SITESERVER" Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )ĬomputerName = Inputbox("Enter a computer name","Input Required") Replace SITESERVER with the name of your own site server. Rather than forcing your users to remember both the computer name and know the site server I suggest creating a VBscript shortcut on their desktop that they can click on. The cmrcviewer.exe file requires two parameters the computer name to connect to and the UNC path to the SCCM site server. I suggest you create a folder called RemoteTools on the user's computer and copy these items into there.Ĭreate a shortcut on the user's desktop to easily access remote tools. Inside of this folder you'll see the following items. Once installed, by default, it will be installed to the %programfiles%\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminConsole\bin\i386 folder. Copy the remote tools files from a computer with SCCM console installed to the user's computer.įirst install the SCCM console.
