Go to solution Solved by Ahaber,

he just hit the setting which disables remote imput its a setting in teamviewer. If this person does not reconnect to your pc then you should be fine. I would uninstall teamviewer just to be safe.

So I was using TeamViewer with someone I don't fully trust but we needed to for reasons.  Anyway, at one point, he click something and i lost all my control over my mouse.  I binnded f7 to closed out of TeamViewer but that didn't work.  I immediately click the hard reset button on the front of my case.  Does he still have control of my screen when he wants it?

(i am running virus scans now)

No he doesn't still have control, he was connected to your computer via teamviewer, even if you open the program again he'd have to have your computer's teamviewer ID and password to be able to reconnect, so you're fine.

 

If he didn't install anything or download any files on your computer when he had control, you don't need to worry about getting a virus from it.
