As to the remote control software suggestion, here’s a thread from last year where I asked that question and got a lot of useful feedback. > [@Recommend Remote Control Software for Windows 7/10 PCs](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/recommend-remote-control-software-for-windows-7-10-pcs/923209): > > Hi folks - I’m a former IT guy. But it’s been a few years. I run Win10 Home on all my gear. I am the tech support for my 95yo MIL. She has a PC with Win7Pro that she gets along with OK. Her fading memory / mental capacity is such that she could never adapt to a newer OS; it would simply be all new and totally unusable every day. But she can get along OK with what she’s got; emailing, buying stuff at a couple familiar websites, checking the weather, playing her games, etc. Until she does so… The consensus favored free TeamViewer and I’ve been happily using that to do elder tech support ever since. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/remote-printing-options-for-the-technologically-unsophisticated/938537)._
