Dear Zoom Experts,

 

Is it possible to allow a specific user to join the host's meeting room and automatically grant them access to control the host's computer remotely without the host granting permissions?

 

I have a desktop computer with files stored exclusively on it. I am wondering if I could log in as the host and share my screen. Then, when I am outside, if my manager needs me to access certain files on this computer, I could join my Zoom meeting on my laptop computer and immediately gain access to this desktop computer.

 

Best regards,
