Quick Start Guide - Using Remote Tools with Splashtop

This Quick Start Guide explains how Remote Tools The system you use to enroll and manage devices (for example, Jamf Pro or Microsoft Intune). with Splashtop works end‑to‑end, including how the Splashtop Streamer is installed, what macOS permissions are required, and exactly what end users will see during sessions.

Remote Tools includes four features: Remote Control, Remote Command, Standalone File Transfer, and System Tools. All four share the same Splashtop Streamer and Splashtop RMM App infrastructure

For advanced configuration, troubleshooting, and UI reference, see the Automox Remote Tools with Splashtop – Full User Guide .

Overview

Remote Control allows IT administrators to securely interact with managed devices directly from the Automox console Our web-based management dashboard, available at https://console.automox.com.. Sessions are encrypted and can be used for troubleshooting, patching, maintenance, scripting, file management, or end‑user support.

Remote Tools includes:

Remote Control — Securely access and control a device's desktop in real time.
Remote Command — Run interactive shell sessions (CMD, PowerShell, Bash, Zsh) on a remote device without taking over the user's screen.
Standalone File Transfer — Move files to and from a remote device without starting a Remote Control session.
System Tools — Reach core Windows administration utilities (Task Manager, Registry Editor, Device Manager, Service Manager) in the background, without a desktop takeover. On macOS, Activity Monitor only.

Note: Features marked with "(Resolve)" are only available on plans that include Automox Resolve. Plans that include Core includes Remote Control only.

On the Device Details Per-device information page (hardware, OS, patches, software) page, all three features are launched from a unified Remote Tools button. The Remote Tools section on Device Details separates entitlement, deployment status, actions, and settings.

Automox integrates with Splashtop using two components:

Splashtop RMM App – Installed on the administrator’s computer
Splashtop Streamer – Installed on the remote device being controlled

Both components must be installed, with permissions properly configured, before a session can begin. A single Streamer install supports all Remote Tools features.

Prerequisites

Subscription & Permissions

To access Splashtop’s capabilities, your organization must be on one of the following plans.

Core – Includes Remote Control only.
Resolve – Includes Remote Control plus Remote Command, Standalone File Transfer, and premium Remote Control controls (in-session file transfer, chat, session recording, "All Monitors (One Window)" view, concurrent technician sessions, remote print).

If you are interested in a plan upgrade, please contact your Automox Account Manager, or reach out to expansion-sales@automox.com.

Role-Based Permissions

Your Automox role determines what Remote Tools actions you can perform. Each feature has its own access permission.

Session Access (initiate session)

Permission	Default Roles
Remote Control: Access	Full Administrator Account-level role with operational management permissions., Helpdesk Operator Read-only role with remote control access., Organization Operator Org-level role with full admin rights for policies, groups, and devices.
Remote Command: Access	Full Administrator, Organization Operator
File Transfer: Access	Full Administrator, Organization Operator
System Tools: Access	Full Administrator

Note: Remote Command and Standalone File Transfer exclude Helpdesk Operator by default (Full Administrator and Organization Operator only). System Tools is more restricted — Full Administrator only by default — because a single permission grants the entire suite, including the destructive Registry Editor, Service Manager, and Device Manager tools. Custom roles can be created to grant either permission to other users.

Other Remote Tools Permissions

Permission	Controls	Default Roles
Settings: Read	View Remote Tools Settings tab, device table, and the Remote Tools section on Device Details	Full Administrator, Helpdesk Operator, Organization Operator
Streamer: Manage	Install / uninstall Streamer on a single device from Device Details	Full Administrator, Helpdesk Operator, Organization Operator
Streamer Bulk: Manage	Bulk install / uninstall (org-wide, group-wide, ad hoc)	Full Administrator
Troubleshooting: Manage	Clear sessions; run Firewall Check	Full Administrator, Helpdesk Operator, Organization Operator
Remote Control Consent: Manage	Change end-user consent behavior	Full Administrator

Agent & OS Requirements

All devices with the Splashtop streamer need to be on Agent Lightweight client application, which is installed on managed devices. 2.4.33 or newer.

Administrator device (Splashtop RMM App):

Windows
macOS

Remote device (Streamer):

Windows 10–11
Windows Server 2012–2022
macOS 14 (Sonoma) or later

Linux is not currently supported for the Splashtop Streamer or any Remote Tools feature.

Network Requirements

Outbound traffic to required Splashtop services must be allowed. See Additional Recommendations for Automox Remote Tools with Splashtop.

Install the Splashtop RMM App

The Splashtop RMM App must be installed before you can start any Remote Tools session.

Navigate to the Device Details page of the remote device and select Remote Tools.
Select any feature (Remote Control, Remote Command, or File Transfer).
The first time you attempt to use Remote Tools — and on every attempt until you confirm — the console will display a prompt asking whether you have already installed the Splashtop RMM App.
- Select No to open a window with download links for Windows and macOS.
- Install the app, then return to the console.
Once the Splashtop RMM App is installed, click Remote Tools again and select Yes when prompted.
- After you click Yes, Automox records that confirmation, and you will not see the prompt again on future Remote Tools attempts from that same administrator device.

The Splashtop RMM App only needs to be installed once per administrator device and powers all Remote Tools features.

How the Splashtop Streamer Is Installed (Remote Devices)

Installation Options

Administrators can install the Streamer in two ways:

Option 1: Organization‑Wide Install

Navigate to Settings → Remote Tools
Click Install Streamer and select By Organization
A confirmation modal displays the organization name and total number of devices. Click Install to Organization to confirm.
Automox sends a silent installation command to all supported devices in the organization. On Windows, nothing is required for the end-user.

Option 2: Group‑Level Install

Navigate to Settings → Remote Tools
Click Install Streamer and select By Groups
Select one or more groups from the group picker and click Install to (N) Groups
Automox sends a silent installation command to all supported devices in the selected groups

Group-level install is a one-time action applied to devices currently in the selected groups. It does not auto-install on future devices added to those groups.

Option 3: Ad Hoc Install from Remote Tools Settings

Navigate to Settings → Remote Tools
Use filters or search to locate target devices in the device table
Select one or more devices using the row checkboxes
Click Actions and select Install Streamer

This is useful for targeted remediation, such as retrying installation on specific devices that previously failed.

Option 4: Per‑Device Install

Open the Device Details page
Expand the Remote Tools section
Select Install Splashtop Streamer

Option 5: Auto-Install for New Devices

Go to Settings → Remote Tools
Under Organization Wide Settings, turn on the New Device Installation toggle
Click Enable Auto-Install to confirm

The Streamer now installs automatically on every new device added to your organization, including devices you've re-imaged. Devices already in your organization aren't affected.

If an installation fails for a temporary reason — a network error, a download that didn't finish — Automox retries up to 5 times over about 30 minutes. If it still doesn't work, the device shows as Failed in the device table, and you can retry it yourself.

Installation Behavior

Installation is silent on Windows
On macOS, the app installs silently but user interaction is required for permissions
After install:
- The Streamer registers with the Automox–Splashtop backend
- Device status updates appear in the Remote Tools section.
Auto-install retries on its own: If the first install attempt fails because of a network problem, a download error, or something similar, Automox tries again — up to 5 times. Failures that retrying won't fix, like the wrong installer for the device's operating system, show as Failed right away.

If installation or registration fails, Automox displays a Streamer Status modal with error details and a retry option.

No hierarchy exists between organization-level, group-level, and ad hoc actions. The most recent action executed against a device determines its final state.

How Is the Splashtop Streamer Installed on Windows?

On Windows, the Splashtop Streamer is installed system-wide — not under the currently logged-in user's profile. It runs as a Windows service executed by the SYSTEM account, which means:

It is available before any user logs in, including at the Windows login screen
No per-user installation or configuration is required
The service starts automatically and persists across reboots and user account changes

Remote Tools Settings Page

The Settings → Remote Tools page provides centralized visibility and control over Remote Tools deployment across the organization.

Deployment Health Summary

The top of the page displays deployment health cards showing how many devices are in each status:

Ready — Streamer installed and registered; eligible for Remote Tools sessions
Failed — A previous install or registration attempt did not complete successfully
Not Installed — Streamer is not installed; no install attempt has been made.

Device Table

A device table lists all devices with their Streamer deployment state. Columns include Device Name, Operating System, Group, Streamer Status, Last Install Attempt, and Last Result Returned.

Admins can filter by OS, Group, and Streamer Status, and search by Device Name. The table supports sorting, column customization, pagination (default 25, up to 500 devices), and row selection for bulk actions.

Note: Data displayed in the device table may be up to 15 minutes old.

Feature Availability

The Feature Availability section controls which Remote Tools features are available to your organization:

Enable Remote Features (main toggle) — When off, all Remote Tools features are disabled for the org regardless of individual feature settings.
Individual feature checkboxes — Enable or disable Remote Control, Remote Command, and File Transfer independently.

On Core plan organizations, only Remote Control is displayed and no per-feature checkbox is shown — the Remote Control toggle is the sole control.

macOS Permissions – What’s Required and Why

For Splashtop-maintained, step-by-step macOS permission instructions (including screenshots and OS-specific variations), see How to allow remote access on macOS.

macOS enforces strict privacy controls. Even when the Streamer is installed by IT, Apple requires the end user to approve certain permissions manually.

Required Permissions (Remote Control)

The Splashtop Streamer requires the following for Remote Control sessions:

Accessibility — Allows keyboard and mouse control
Screen Recording / Remote Desktop ^*Screen Recording vs. Remote Desktop on macOS: macOS may show either Screen Recording or Remote Desktop depending on your OS version. These labels refer to the same screen-visibility permission. — Allows screen viewing

Feature‑Dependent Permissions

Full Disk Access – Required for the technician to read files from the macOS device during File Transfer (in-session or Standalone). Without it, files can be pushed to the device but not pulled from it.
Microphone – Required for audio during Remote Control sessions

Remote Command on macOS

Remote Command sessions run as root on macOS and do not require any macOS permission grants from the end user.

What IT Can Pre‑Configure

Using MDM tools (Jamf, Intune, etc.), IT can:

Pre‑approve Accessibility
Pre‑approve Full Disk Access
Configure Screen Recording to allow standard users to approve without admin rights

Apple does not allow Screen Recording or Microphone access to be granted silently.

What End Users Will See

After installation, macOS prompts the user to approve permissions:

Screen Recording prompt appears
User selects Allow
User may be directed to System Settings → Privacy & Security
User enables Splashtop for Screen Recording
A restart of the Splashtop Streamer may be required

If a prompt is dismissed, permissions can be enabled manually:

System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording / Microphone / Accessibility / Full Disk Access

Until Screen Recording and Accessibility are approved, Remote Control sessions may launch, but the Splashtop RMM App may appear blank or non-interactive. Remote Command sessions do not require these permissions.

The Remote Tools Button

All Remote Tools features are launched from a unified Remote Tools button on the Device Details page.

If you have permission to only one feature, the button is labeled with that feature and launches it directly.

If you have permission to two or more features, the button opens a dropdown listing the features you can access.

Features are shown grayed out (with tooltips) if your plan or the device's OS doesn't support them. Features are hidden entirely if you lack permission or your org has disabled them.

Starting a Remote Tools Session

Remote Control

Open the Device Details page
Click Remote Tools and select Remote Control
Session behavior (prompted or unprompted) depends on the device's effective end-user consent setting — either inherited from the organization default or set as a per-device override. See End-User Consent below.
If all requirements are met, the Splashtop RMM App launches and the session begins.

Remote Command

Open the Device Details page
Click Remote Tools and select Remote Command
The Splashtop RMM App opens an interactive shell window.

Privilege level: On Windows, sessions run in the system (SYSTEM) context. On macOS, sessions run as root.

Headless / unattended: Remote Command works on devices with no logged-in user and no active display (servers, kiosks).

Standalone File Transfer

Open the Device Details page
Click Remote Tools and select File Transfer
The Splashtop RMM App opens a two-pane file explorer (local on left, remote on right). Drag and drop to transfer files.

macOS Full Disk Access: Without Full Disk Access granted to the Splashtop Streamer, technicians can push files to the device but cannot browse or pull files from it.

System Tools

System Tools brings core Windows administration utilities into Automox as a background feature. No desktop takeover and no interruption to the end user. From a single launch point, you can reach:

Task Manager - View running processes and live CPU / memory usage, and end processes
Registry Editor - Browse and edit the Windows registry
Device Manager - View and manage hardware and drivers; enable, disable, and check device status
Service Manager - View and control Windows services; start, stop, and set startup type

On macOS, System Tools surfaces Activity Monitor only (the macOS equivalent of Task Manager). Registry Editor, Device Manager, and Service Manager are Windows-only utilities. System Tools is not available on Linux.

System Tools is a single, combined feature. When opened, a new browser tab displays the tools window, and you can navigate between the available utilities from there. The tools cannot be launched, enabled, or permissioned individually. Access to System Tools grants the entire set.

Starting a System Tools Session

Open the Device Details page
Click Remote Tools and Select System Tools
A new browser tab opens with the System Tools window. Navigate between the available utilities from within that window.

Privilege level: On Splashtop RMM App v3.8.2.2 and later, System Tools sessions do not prompt for credentials and run in the system (SYSTEM) context on the endpoint. Earlier Splashtop RMM App versions prompt for credentials.

Headless / unattended: System Tools works on devices with no logged-in user and no active display.

End-User Visibility

IT interactions with remote endpoints result in different visual indicators for the end user:

Consent Prompts — Apply only to Remote Control. Session behavior (prompted or unprompted) depends on the configured End-user consent setting.
Session Banners — Apply to Remote Command, Standalone File Transfer, and System Tools. These run in the background but are not fully silent; the logged-in user briefly sees a gray banner ("[Technician Name] has connected to this computer") and a persistent "Session in progress" indicator. No consent dialog is shown.

End-User Consent

End-user consent determines whether the logged-in user must approve a Remote Control session before it starts. Consent applies to Remote Control only — Remote Command, File Transfer, and System Tools are not affected.

Organization Default

Administrators set an organization-wide default consent mode from Settings → Remote Tools → Remote Control End-User Consent. Every device inherits this default unless individually overridden. Four consent modes are available:

Mode	Behavior
Required (attended) - default	User must approve. At login screen with no user, session starts automatically.
Not required (unattended)	Session starts immediately. No prompt is shown.
Required — deny on timeout	User has 30 seconds to approve; otherwise session fails. No user → denied.
Required — allow on timeout	User has 30 seconds to approve; otherwise session starts automatically.

End-User Consent Behavior

End-user consent controls whether a user must approve a session — and what happens if the user does not respond.

Consent applies to Remote Control only. Remote Command, Standalone File Transfer, and System Tools run in the background and are not affected by this setting.

End-user consent is configured per device in the Settings area of the Remote Tools section on Device Details. Only full administrators or custom roles with the Remote Control Consent: Manage permission can modify consent behavior.

Change Consent Behavior

Open Device Details
Open the Remote Tools section
In Settings, select the desired End-user consent option
Click Save to apply the change

Changes are not applied until Save is clicked.

Bulk updates are available via Devices → Actions → Configure Remote Control.

Device Overrides

You can override the organization default on specific devices from Device Details → Remote Tools → Settings, or in bulk from Devices → Actions → Configure Remote Control or the Remote Tools Settings device table.

An override stays pinned even when the organization default changes — unless cleared or reset by the daily enforcement toggle.

Enforce Organization Default Daily

When enabled in Settings → Remote Tools, the Enforce Organization Default Daily toggle resets all per-device overrides to the organization default once per day (5:00 PM Pacific). This ensures a consistent consent posture across the fleet while still allowing same-day temporary overrides for support sessions.

Permissions

Permission	Controls	Default Roles
Remote Control Consent: Manage	Change the org default, set per-device overrides, clear overrides, toggle daily enforcement	Full Administrator
Settings: Read	View the org default and per-device consent values (read-only)	Full Administrator, Helpdesk Operator, Organization Operator

If your session doesn't connect

If the Splashtop Streamer is installed and registered but the session fails to start, use Check Firewall from the Remote Control section on the Device Details page.

Check firewall verifies that the device can reach required Splashtop and Automox services and is the fastest way to identify firewall or network-related issues.

Understanding the Remote Tools Section

The Remote Tools section on the Device Details page is organized into four areas to make it easier to understand readiness, available actions, and configuration.

Tier – Indicates which Remote Tools tier is enabled for the device (Core or Automox Resolve powered by Splashtop).
Status – Shows whether the Splashtop Streamer is installed and registered.
Actions – One-time operations such as installing or uninstalling the Streamer, ending active sessions (across all features), running a firewall check, or viewing the Splashtop RMM App links.
Settings – Persistent configuration options that control Remote Tools behavior, including end-user consent.

Screen Recording Controls

Screen Recording Controls give organizations governance over whether and how Remote Control sessions are recorded. Recording applies to Remote Control only. Remote Command, File Transfer, and System Tools run in the background with no screen and produce no recordings.

By default, recording is manual: the technician starts and stops it from the recording control in the Splashtop RMM App. Screen Recording Controls add two org-level options, configured on the Settings → Remote Tools tab:

Auto-record (technician may stop): Recording starts automatically at the beginning of every Remote Control session; the technician can stop the recording.
Auto-record, locked (technician cannot stop): Recording starts automatically at session start and the technician cannot stop the recording for the session duration.

These settings are strictly org-level (no per-user, per-role, or per-session override) and only one recording mode is active at a time. The default is manual recording. All recording preferences are governed by the existing Organization: Manage permission; no new permission is required. Recordings are saved locally to the technician’s device, org-level configuration of storage location is not currently available.

Using the Remote Session in the Splashtop RMM App

When the session begins, the Splashtop RMM App displays the remote desktop and a navigation bar with session controls.

Splashtop Session Controls (Quick Reference)

Note: You can hover over the icons to identify the control.

Control	Description
Disconnect	Ends the remote session and returns you to the Automox console.
RDP Switch Session (Resolve)	Displays when multiple remote desktop sessions are active on the remote machine. Allows you to toggle between active Windows sessions (for example, different logged-in users).
Switch Monitor	Switch between individual monitors on the remote device. Available on both Core and Resolve. Resolve users can also use "All Monitors (One Window)" to view all monitors simultaneously in a single combined view.
View Settings	Adjusts display options including scaling, quality, and cursor visibility.
Full Screen	Expands the view to fill the administrator's display. Press Escape to exit.
Ctrl+Alt+Del	Sends the Ctrl+Alt+Delete command to the remote Windows device.
Record Session (Resolve)	Records the current remote session.
In-Session File Transfer (Resolve)	Transfers files securely between devices during an active Remote Control session.
Chat (Resolve)	Opens a text chat window for communication with the remote user.
Actions	Screen and input controls.

A complete description of all session controls appears in Automox Remote Tools with Splashtop – Full User Guide .

End a Session

You can end a Remote Control or File Transfer session in either of the following ways:

Select Disconnect in the Splashtop RMM App (Splashtop RMM App).
Close the session window.

For Remote Command sessions, close the shell window or use the Disconnect action.

Concurrent Sessions

Each open Remote Tool uses one connection to a device. The number of simultaneous connections a single device can have depends on your plan: Core allows 1 connection per device; Resolve allows up to 3, shared across Remote Control, Remote Command, and File Transfer (each open session uses one connection). For example, a device running 1 Remote Control and 1 Remote Command session has 2 of 3 slots occupied. System Tools sessions do not count as a connection and are additive, they do not consume a slot.

How connections are counted:

Connections are counted per device across all technicians — it makes no difference whether one technician or several open them.
Connections to different devices are unlimited on both plans. The limit applies only to simultaneous connections to the same device.
When a device reaches its limit, the next connection to that device is blocked until an active one ends.
System Tools do not count toward the per-device limit.

Clear Session / Disconnect All ends all active Remote Tools sessions on the device (across all features), not just one.

Session tracking caps: To prevent stuck or hung sessions from blocking new ones, Automox automatically removes sessions from its tracking system after fixed caps:

Session Type	Tracking cap
Failed or hanging connection attempts	30 seconds
Successful File Transfer sessions	1 hour
Successful Remote Control and Remote Command sessions	4 hours

These caps apply to Automox's session tracking only — they free up the session slot for new connections and do not forcibly terminate the live Splashtop session.

Managing Updates and Uninstalls

Updates

The Splashtop Streamer and Splashtop RMM App are listed in the Automox Third-Party Software Catalog
Both can be updated using standard Automox patch policies Policy type automating OS and third-party patching, or a Canopy configuration that defines which devices get which macOS update, and when.

Uninstall Options

Administrators can uninstall the Splashtop Streamer using any of the following supported methods:

Option 1: Organization-Wide Uninstall

Navigate to Settings → Remote Tools
Select Uninstall Splashtop Streamer
In the confirmation modal, select Organization and confirm
Automox sends a silent uninstallation command to all supported devices in the organization

Option 2: Group-Level Uninstall

Navigate to Settings → Remote Tools
Click Uninstall
In the confirmation modal, select Groups, choose one or more groups, and confirm
Automox sends a silent uninstallation command to all supported devices in the selected groups

Option 3: Ad Hoc Uninstall from Remote Tools Settings
