Fix AnyViewer Not Connecting: Start RCService Automatically on Windows

March 3, 2025 by AndyHuang

1. Issue

Every time I restarted the computer, I found that AnyViewer was not connected to the server. Please see the picture below:

I checked and found that the RCservice service was not started. After I turned it on, it became normal.

2. Cause

RCservice is not started. RCservice is the core component of AnyViewer. Only when AnyViewer is started can it work properly.

3. Solution

1. Set the Windows Service RCService to Start Automatically

You can use the sc config command or PowerShell to configure the Windows service RCService to start automatically.

Method 1: Using sc config

Run the following command in an elevated Command Prompt (cmd):

sc config RCService start= auto

Note: There must be a space after start=, or the command will fail.


Method 2: Using PowerShell

Run the following command in an elevated PowerShell:

Set-Service -Name "RCService" -StartupType Automatic

2. Manually Start the Windows Service RCService

You can start RCService manually using either the sc command or PowerShell.

Method 1: Using sc start

Run the following command in an elevated Command Prompt (cmd):

sc start RCService

Method 2: Using PowerShell

Run the following command in an elevated PowerShell:

Start-Service -Name "RCService"

Bonus: Check the Service Status

If you want to verify whether RCService has started successfully, use:

sc query RCService

Or:

Get-Service -Name "RCService"

With these commands, you can set RCService to start automatically and manually start it when needed! 🚀
