This error seemed to pop up in early July 2024. It happened to about a third of all Anydesk installs I'm aware of, which is several dozen at least.
Copy and run this in an Administrator Command Prompt to fix it: Copy to Clipboard
taskkill /f /im anydesk.exe
rd /s /q "C:\programData\Anydesk"
rd /s /q "%appdata%\Anydesk"
start "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Anydesk\Anydesk.exe"
Here is the manual version of the above fix. 1: Close Anydesk, if there is an icon in the System Tray (near the clock in the bottom right corner of the screen), right click on it and Quit it. 2: Delete or rename the Anydesk folder found here: C:\ProgramData\Anydesk 3: Delete or rename the Anydesk folder found here: C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Roaming\Anydesk (Change MyUsername to your username!) 4: Start Anydesk. Here is a video showing the manual fix. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vtp9bGXO0_c |
