7. The last step is to restart the Splashtop Streamer App. If you are doing this remotely, you can open the Business App(purple icon) and click on the gear icon next to the computer to find the restart streamer computer option. If you are physically at the computer then you can exit the streamer app from the tray icon and reopen it again.
