desktop sharing tool
Target:
anyone got any current recommendations for a desktop sharing tool?
looking for something simple - pretty limited use, ie desktop support for my inlaws (so potentially lots of calls, but only 1 or 2 users)
A search on DC throws a number of suggestions but most posts are quite old or have since disappeared

I've just been using Skype as of late. It works well enough for my purposes.

yeah, but that opens up other possibilities that I don't want to have to manage (and once the cats out of the bag there's no getting it back in)

If both ends have Microsoft accounts there's Quick Assist (Windows 10) or Remote Assistance (pre-10 which didn't require a Microsoft account IIRC).

Haven't tried Quick Assist but have previously used Remote Assistance and it worked fine for what I was doing.
