What each lesson covers
The tutorial, lesson by lesson.
Prepare the PC
Install Oppermind Desktop, authorize This computer, keep the app running in the tray.
Remote access starts on the PC: the app must be installed, This computer authorized, and the agent running. Keep running when the window closes leaves the agent in the system tray, which is what makes the PC reachable when nobody is sitting at it. Launch at sign-in makes that survive a restart.
Practice. On the PC: Desktop settings → Authorize this computer → Start agent. Turn on Keep running when the window closes and Launch at sign-in.
Desktop settings → Computer control → Authorize this computer → Start agent.
Link from the phone
Choose Desktop co-pilot, get a pairing code, and pair the PC by name.
On the phone, the mode chip offers Desktop co-pilot. Link a PC gives a pairing code; authorizing This computer on the PC completes the link to the same account. Rename this PC so a second machine is easy to tell apart later.
Practice. Mode chip → Desktop co-pilot → Link a PC → Get a pairing code, then finish on the PC. Rename the PC.
Link a PC → Get a pairing code → on the PC, Authorize this computer.
Watch the live screen
Start the stream and choose who is driving.
Live Screen is the PC as it is right now. Start stream begins it; the switch decides control: Manual is a remote desktop where a click gives you the keyboard and the agent is suspended; Lato driving hands the PC to the agent for a task while you watch. Stop stream ends the picture without ending the link.
Practice. Open Live Screen, Start stream, switch to Manual and open a folder on the PC by hand. Switch back to Lato driving.
Live Screen → Start stream → Manual → click into the screen.
Give a reversible task and approve by risk
Ask for something you could undo, and answer the permission requests.
The first task should be reversible: export a report, organise a folder, read a screen. The agent narrates in Activity and stops before consequential actions with Permission requested, the action and its risk. Approve what the task needs; Deny anything it did not need, and the agent adapts. Cost shows what the session has used.
Practice. Ask for an export or a file tidy-up. Approve the file_write permission; deny anything else and see what the agent does instead.
Open our accounting desktop app, go to Reports, and export the August aged debtors report to my desktop.
Read the audit log, then pause or stop
Every action is recorded; control stays on the PC.
Audit log lists what the agent did and what you allowed, in order. Read it after the first task. On the PC, Pause control keeps the link but stops the agent acting; Stop agent ends remote access. Existing agent permissions govern what Lato can do; widen them only after the log shows the agent doing what you expected.
Practice. Open Audit log on the phone and read the run. On the PC, Pause control, then confirm the phone shows Control paused.
Audit log → read today's entries. Desktop settings → Pause control.
