# Custom client advanced options

Other than the regular customization options, AnyDesk offers **Advanced** options to help users fine-tune their AnyDesk clients to their exact specifications.

You can either override a setting (meaning there is no way to change it back within AnyDesk) or change the default setting which AnyDesk uses. For security-related features, we recommend using “Override settings” so that they cannot be changed from the user interface of the custom client.

> [!TIP]
> 💡 **NOTE**
> 
> Value possibilities in **bold** indicate the default setting.

### Permission Profiles (AnyDesk 7+)

> [!TIP]
> 💡 **NOTE**
> 
> Use the **Permission Profile Key-Value Pair Generator** to create key-value pairs for your custom configuration.

> [!CAUTION]
> 🚨 **IMPORTANT**
> 
> Permission profiles (introduced in AnyDesk 7) offer more flexibility than the older `ad.security` key-value pairs.
> 
> You can create up to 10 custom profiles. Each profile can have its own permissions and unattended access settings. Permissions are split between:
> 
> - The**Accept Window**
> - **Settings > Access**
> 
> **Example**
> 
> To disable audio transmission by default when `profile1` is used:
> 
> ```plaintext
> ad.security.permission_profiles.profile1.permissions.audio=0
> ```
> 
> To stop the remote user from changing this in the Accept Window:
> 
> ```plaintext
> ad.security.permission_profiles.profile1.changeable_in_accept_window.audio=0
> ```

| **Feature** | **Key-value pair** | **Value possibilities** |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Profile identifiers** | ```plaintext <profile_id> ``` | ```plaintext Default: _default _full_access _screen_sharing _unattended_access Custom: profile1 to profile10 ``` |

| **Enable session profile memory** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.enable_previous_session=1 ``` | 0: No, **1: Yes** |
| **Define profile name** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.define.<profile_id>=<name> ``` | **Example:** ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.define.profile1=myprofile ``` |
| **Disable permission in Settings** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.permissions.<permission>=0 ``` | 0: Disabled, 1: Enabled |
| **Disable permission change via Accept Window** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.changeable_in_accept_window.<permission>=0 ``` | 0: Not changeable, **1: Changeable** |
| **Allow profile switching** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.can_switch_profile=1 ``` | 0: No, **1: Yes** |
| **Show profile in Accept Window** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.show_in_accept_window=1 ``` | 0: No, **1: Yes** |
| **Set unattended access password** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.pwd=<hash> ``` ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.salt=<salt> ``` | Leave “pwd” empty to disable. Hash and salt can be generated with the Password Generator in [my.anydesk II > Builds](https://my.anydesk.com/v2/builds)> Utilities. |
| **Remove profile from custom client** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.<profile_id>.removed=1 ``` | 0: No, **1: Yes** |
| **Allow manual profile creation** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.can_create=1 ``` | 0: No, **1: Yes** |

| **Global permissions (Accept Window)** **Applies to all profiles.** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.changeable_in_accept_window.<permission>=1 ``` | 0: Not changeable, 1: Changeable |
| **Global profile switching** **Applies to all profiles.** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.can_switch_profile=1 ``` | 0: No, 1: Yes |
| **Global profile visibility in Accept Window** **Applies to all profiles.** | ```plaintext ad.security.permission_profiles.show_in_accept_window=1 ``` | 0: No, 1: Yes |

### Unattended Access settings (AnyDesk 7 and older)

> [!CAUTION]
> 🚨 **IMPORTANT**
> 
> In AnyDesk 7 and later, the key-value pairs listed here apply to the **Unattended Access** profile **only if** it has been explicitly configured in the custom client. These settings control which permissions are available during unattended access sessions.
> 
> They only take effect if the following key is set:
> 
> ```plaintext
> ad.security.enable_uaccess_permissions=true
> ```
> 
> Also, make sure custom permissions for unattended access are defined.
