How to Transfer AnyDesk Connections Between User Profiles on Windows

Table of content

Yes, it is possible to transfer saved AnyDesk connections from one user profile to another on Windows. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

This is an advanced procedure. Proceed at your own risk.

  1. Open the File Explorer on your Windows operating system.

  2. Navigate to the following location: C:\Users<old_profile>\AppData\Roaming
    Replace <old_profile> with the name of the damaged user profile that contains the saved connections you want to transfer.

  3. In this location, you will find a folder named “AnyDesk”. This folder contains the information for all the saved connections in AnyDesk.

  4. Copy the AnyDesk folder to a safe location, such as a USB drive or a location on your hard drive.

  5. Now, log in to the new user profile you created on Windows.

  6. Navigate to the following location in the new user profile: C:\Users<new_profile>\AppData\Roaming
    Replace <new_profile> with the name of the new user profile where you want to import the saved connections.

  7. Delete the existing AnyDesk folder and paste the AnyDesk folder you previously copied into this location.

  8. Restart AnyDesk so that it detects and loads the saved connections in the new user profile.

After following these steps, you should be able to access all the saved connections in AnyDesk from the new user profile, including the stored credentials.

Please note that folder and file names may vary depending on the version of Windows you are using. If you encounter any difficulties, I suggest contacting AnyDesk technical support for more specific assistance.
