You can connect to the remote PC using your PIA account and access shared folders through a VPN. The aim is to run local applications and manage remote data or VMs securely. Yes, PIA supports this setup. To proceed, you’ll need to configure the necessary VPN settings in your PIA client, ensuring file shares are enabled. If you encounter issues finding the shares, check your VPN connection status or contact PIA support. For alternative VPN options, consider providers that offer similar remote access features.
