Regedit Anydesk May 2026

[HKLM\SOFTWARE\AnyDesk] "ClientID"="your-company" "alias"="IT-Helpdesk-01" AnyDesk launches pre-named, ready for remote connection without manual input. 3.2 Force Password for Unattended Access (Security) Without the GUI, you can enforce a fixed password:

[HKLM\SOFTWARE\AnyDesk] "password"="SHA256_HASH_OF_PASSWORD" "salt"="RANDOM_SALT" Interesting note: AnyDesk stores a salted SHA256 of the password, not plaintext—but reversing is possible with enough compute power.
