How do I set the maximum amount of time that Windows Remote Assistance invitations can remain open?

On the computer that you want someone to connect to, use the following steps.

  1. From the Windows Vista default Start menu, right-click Computer, and then click Properties.

  2. Click Remote Settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. Click to select the Allow Remote Assistance connections to this computer check box.

  4. Click Advanced, and then under Invitations, select the time from the two lists.
