Linux instructions:

#use ifconfig to determine your wlan interface and use below to set random and burned in

sudo ifconfig wlp2s0 down
sudo apt -y install macchanger
sudo macchanger -r -b wlp2s0
sudo ifconfig wlp2s0 up
rm -rf ~/.anydesk
sudo apt autopurge anydesk -y
sudo apt -y install anydesk

#save to /sbin/resetanydesk then chmod +x /sbin/resetanydesk and run resetanydesk

This will wipe your settings and hosts, if you want to save them:
mv ~/.anydesk ~/.anydesk.old

i made it more simplier for me so all my clients remain, no need to delete user.conf in roaming/local.

@echo off
:: Check for administrative privileges
net session >nul 2>&1
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
    echo Requesting administrative privileges...
    powershell -Command "Start-Process '%~f0' -Verb RunAs"
    exit /b)

echo Killing AnyDesk process...
taskkill /f /im AnyDesk.exe >nul 2>&1

echo Deleting service* and system* files from %ProgramData%\AnyDesk...
del /f /q "%ProgramData%\AnyDesk\service*" >nul 2>&1
del /f /q "%ProgramData%\AnyDesk\system*" >nul 2>&1

echo Starting AnyDesk...
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\AnyDesk\AnyDesk.exe"

echo Done.
pause

I am not one of those.
I live in the Netherlands and occasionally help my family and friends in Croatia and Canada. Everything is according to the AnyDesk free account policy ('If you are a personal user, the usage of AnyDesk will remain free for you'), but they still sometimes mark me as a professional user.

This script i use at my job. and also i would recommend another script that work with multiple scripts and multiple clients:
The idea is to host your scripts at your server or free hosting like hostinger/infinityfree. On your client pc you place a simple script that download actual script that you want to run, that is made so you can perfect your script and it will automaticly work for all, you just change it on your web hosting.
On client:

@echo off
set URL=http://yourhost.com/latest.bat
set FILE=%TEMP%\latest.bat

echo Downloading latest.bat...
powershell -Command "Invoke-WebRequest -Uri '%URL%' -OutFile '%FILE%'"

if exist "%FILE%" (
    echo Running latest.bat...
    call "%FILE%"
) else (
    echo Failed to download latest.bat
)
pause

On server you can place your actual script, like for anydesk or another easy fix. something like just calling calculator will work:

:: Modify as you wish
calc
del %TEMP%\latest.bat

The fact that you can delete the file is greate if they fire you, so u just delete the file on the hosting and they can't use your script, heheh xD
