IMPORTANT - Upgrade Notes
  • You will need to set up your Laplink Everywhere Host PC(s) after the upgrade. Your existing User Name and Password for your Laplink Everywhere account will continue to work when signing in to LLE5. However, any unique settings created in LLE4 will need to be set up again in LLE5. For example, prior to the upgrade, you should make note of:
  1. All your PC Names, and associated Laplink Everywhere PC Serial #(s)
    1. Visit https://www.LL2go.com and Login.
    2. Click the My Account tab.
    3. In the Your PCs section and below the PC Serial # column, click Unassign. Make note of the PC Name and Serial Number.  Repeat this step for each PC.  The URC Serial #(s), if present, do not need to be unassigned. This account information will automatically transfer along with your PC Serial #.
  3. Any additional Users you created to allow access to your PC(s).
  • Laplink Everywhere 5 no longer supports Windows 9x or Me on the Host PC. Laplink Secure VNC in general and Remote Control under Windows 2000 is no longer supported either.
  • The Remote Control 4 feature in Laplink Everywhere 4 (LLE4) is now Laplink Screen Sharing in Laplink Everywhere 5 (LLE5). If you use Remote Control 4, your User Name and Password for signing in to this particular service will not be valid for Laplink Screen Sharing. When signing in to Laplink Screen Sharing, just enter your Windows User Name and Password used to sign in to your remote PC.
