Remote Operation

This selection only appears in the Utility menu if your PC-Doctor supports
remote control. This entry opens the Remote Operation menu if you are not
yet online, or closes the remote connection if the system is already remotely
controlled.

When PC-Doctor is operated remotely, it is possible to perform a remote
reboot. Remote rebooting is a complicated procedure that reloads the
operating system and makes changes to CMOS RAM and configuration files.
For further information on remote operations, refer to online documentation
or help.
