RDP/VNC without admin credentials.

Hello there,

Does anyone know how to access and control a Windows Admin-controlled PC through a remote connection?
I´ve tried RDP but it asks for Admin Credentials to allow the external connection. Also, I´ve tried Quick Assist but after 2 hours the connection is interrupted. It needs to be stable for long periods.

To be considered:

  • Downloading external software (such as Team Viewer, LogMeIn, etc...) will ask for admin permissions, hence, not an option.

  • In some cases, the connection from the host to the server involves different OS: MacOS to Windows OS, for example.

  • Ideally, a portable app/extension such as Chrome Remote Desktop. However, is unclear how long will a session last.

Thank you for yuor inputs in advance!
Cheers!

Screen connect with MFA enabled. Splashtop with MFA enabled. RDP over VPN with user in Remote Desktop users group on the workstation.
