In this short video I'll show you how to enable VNC on your Raspberry Pi or zBitx in order to remote into it and perform administrative tasks like backing up your SD Card, applying updates etc.

Read up on VNC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VNC and RealVNC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RealVNC
There are MANY different versions of VNC, and most will work together. On my Computers I run RealVNC client but generic VNC server software as an example. There are simply too many choices for me to link them here, so harness your favourite search engine to find one that matches your computer's OS.
