If you are TCC staff or faculty and need software installed on your TCC computer while working remotely, we have ways to assist. Due to important security precautions, the ability to install software without system administrator help is not available. However, some options are described below.
Self-installations with the VPN
If you are able to connect to the college network via the VPN, and you already have the install file needed, you can request a temporary username and password to complete the installation. You must have an active VPN connection before starting the installation to allow validation of the credentials. To request temporary administrative credentials, click here.
