Teamviewer – stuck at initializing display parameters

Recently i encounter a problem to remote access to my Windows Server using TeamViewer Software.  My TeamViewer stuck at initializing display parameters screen even i enter the correct User ID and password. For your information, i’m running latest version of TeamViewer (12.0.78517)

As per checking TeamViewer setting, i noticed that there is a server ID on Server OS besides a unique user ID for each user profile. Server ID can be found on Help-> About TeamViewer

I tried to use Server ID instead of user ID to remote my Windows Server. It work fine without any issue.

If your guys have any others solution, please share with me. 🙂
