Remmina als Linux-Alternative zu Quick Assist
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
Remmina is a solid replacement for Quick Assist for Linux users who need remote desktop support. It covers the core tasks—viewing and controlling another PC over RDP or VNC, encrypted via SSH tunneling, and sharing sessions through a link or code. It works well for small teams or individual support sessions, especially when the remote machine runs Windows or Linux. However, it lacks the one‑click, Windows‑only Quick Assist integration and the native Windows‑to‑Linux link generation, so users must set up connection profiles manually.

Was gleich funktioniert
- Both use RDP for Windows remote control
- Both provide remote screen viewing and mouse/keyboard input
- Both support encrypted connections (RDP encryption or SSH tunneling)
- Both allow session sharing via a link or code
Was anders ist
- Remmina requires manual profile creation; Quick Assist auto‑generates a link
- Quick Assist is Windows‑only client/server; Remmina is cross‑platform client only
- Quick Assist uses a single‑click pairing; Remmina needs credentials or SSH keys
- Quick Assist is free with Windows; Remmina is open source but may need extra packages
- Quick Assist has a built‑in support chat; Remmina does not
Ihre Quick Assist-Dateien öffnen
Quick Assist does not produce portable files; it only generates a session link or code that is used once. Therefore there is no file format to import into Remmina. Users must manually create a new RDP/VNC profile in Remmina with the target IP, port, and credentials.
Von Quick Assist zu Remmina wechseln – Schritt für Schritt
- 1. Install Remmina via your distro’s package manager or Flathub.
- 2. Open Remmina and click the '+' button to create a new profile.
- 3. Select RDP (or VNC) as the protocol, enter the remote PC’s IP address and credentials.
- 4. Enable SSH tunneling if you want an extra encryption layer.
- 5. Save the profile and double‑click it to start the session. If you need a share link, use the 'Copy URL' button in the profile dialog.
