In [public preview](../fundamentals/public-preview.md), *remote help* is an application that works with Intune and enables your information and front-line workers to get assistance when needed over a remote connection. With this connection, your support staff can remote connect to the user's device. During the session, they can view the device's display and if permitted by the device user, take full control. Full control enables a helper to directly make configurations or take actions on the device.

> On 12/08/2021, the remote help installer was renamed from *remotehelp.exe* to *remotehelpinstaller.exe* to resolve issues with silent deployments and interactive installations. Although app functionality hasn't changed, we recommend using the same [*download link*](#download-remote-help) to download the updated version with the renamed installer. The installation command lines in this article have been updated to reflect the new installer file name.
