Help Desk Chat

ExpertAssist’s Help Desk Chat feature allows you to communicate with the user sitting in front of the remote computer as you would with any instant messenger software. ExpertAssist’s advanced diagnostic capabilities can be put to use while you’re remotely connected.

Figure 8: Help Desk Chat window.

  1. Type text in the lower pane of the chat window.
  2. Once typed, click Send button or hit Enter. The text typed by both yourself and the remote user appears in the upper pane of the chat window.
  3. You can distinguish the typed text of yours from that typed by your remote user by different font coloring used for the typed text.
  4. Use Ctrl+Enter key combination for entering paragraphs while you type.
  5. You can copy and paste text from and to these windows.

This functionality is implemented in a Java applet which is similar to the screen that the remote user will see.

Computer Management

The Computer Management object allows you to take advantage of a wealth of ExpertAssist administrative features including the File Manager, information on the Processes, Services and Drivers of the remote machine and even a reboot of the remote machine.

File Manager

The File Manager displays a list of all available drives, together with their capacity and available space.

Double-click on the drive names to get into the root directory of that drive, where all files and directories are also links.

Double-click on the name of a subdirectory to get into it and produce a listing.

You can select multiple consecutive files with the Shift key, or non-consecutive files with the CTRL key.

When hovering over a file or folder in the currently selected drive, a tooltip will be displayed containing the following information:

The Go field accepts a path name.

Enter a directory (for example C:\Windows\System32\Drivers) and click on the Go button. This will immediately take you to the requested location, without having to click your way there. This can be especially helpful over slow connections.

Clicking on the header fields will change the sorting order of the file list to the relevant column.
For example, to sort files by modification time rather than name, simply click on the header field for that column. To sort in descending order, click the header field of the currently active sorting field again.
