Teamviewer and VM

Post by duntty »

Hello there.
I am in this situation.
- I've just created a VM machine on my laptop
- I downloaded TeamViewer on the VM and gave the access to someone else
Is it possible in this case so that person can access my personal pc and desktop?
Even i have no teamviewer installed on it.

Teamviewer or other remote software can only access the OS it is installed on, unless you also install other remote software on that OS that can access other computers.

So if the VM has no other ways to remotely access other LAN computers, Teamviewer should not be able to get out of the VM.
