1) Create Your Account


Creating your account is easy, simply click the button below and fill in you're details to sign up:

2) Set Up Your Host Computer

The host computer is the computer you want to access remotely. If you aren’t on that computer now, you can close your browser, move to that PC and log in from our website to carry on where you left off.

Click Connect in the main menu and then Add New Computer, follow the on-screen instructions to download and install the MyQuickCloud Host setup program. Interactive image showing the steps to add a host computer

3) Add a MyWorkspace Connection For Your User


When the setup has finished, click to Configure User Access, select your user account, and then toggle the switch next to MyWorkspace.

MyWorkspace allows multiple users to connect to the host at the same time, and prevents any disruption to anyone using the host computer in person by using a MyQuickCloud generated, Windows user account.

4) Adding More Users


To add new users that can connect to your host computer you first need to add MyQuickCloud user licenses to your subscription (you can skip this step if you're using the trial, as it comes with 5 trial user licenses you can setup for testing).

  • From the dashboard click Account, then click Subscription Details, and click Modify
  • Under the Users section, increase the number of users to the desired amount by clicking the + and - buttons
  • Click Continue to confirm the subscription update.


5) Configure your new user


Now that you have the right amount of user licenses, you can create you new user accounts and configure their e-mail address, password and how they access your host computer.


  • From the dashboard, click the Users icon, then click Add New User
  • Enter your new user's first name, last name and e-mail address
  • The users' Alias will act as their Windows username. It can be up to 9 characters long, and contain only letters and numbers (no spaces). You likely won't see it often, so a first name or job title works great here
  • Toggle the switch next to Administrator to give this new user admin access to your MyQuickCloud account (this includes giving them full permission to view and modify billing, add and configure new users, and to add new hosts)
  • Finally enter the user's password, and click Create User to finish. The password cannot contain the Alias, and must be at least 8 letters long, contain 1 captial letter, 1 lower case letter, and 1 number.

6) Publish your user’s apps 


Finally, click Configure User Access and toggle the switch next to MyWorkspace to allow your new user to connect remotely. 

Again for more information about MyWorkspace and the other connection methods we offer: https://myquickcloud.com/knowledgebase/different-ways-to-access-your-host-computer/


Your new user will now be able to connect your host computer remotely, from any computer, anywhere, by signing into their MyQuickCloud account via the website (https://myquickcloud.com/login). Or by downloading the MyQuickCloud desktop app, from here: https://myquickcloud.com/downloads/


7) Log in as your user for the first time


It can be very embarrassing handing something over, especially to a client, for them to come back and say it’s not correctly set up. So this final step lets you ensure your user’s dashboard is working and ready to go the moment you hand it over to them. First, log out of your profile using the log out button in the top right of the browser or desktop application. Next, log in as your new user. Now, click the app that you set up in the previous step
