security permissions connection problem rights crash

Can't control Mac OS Big Sur I remotely support someone that uses a Mac and they upgraded to Big Sur. Ever since then, I am able to see the screen with AnyDesk but cannot control keyboard and mouse and we have already granted all the permissions necessary in MacOS. Hi, once i start Anydesk on Centos 7, i cannot control Other parts of GUI, i can only use WINkey+ TAB to select but all fields stop working, cant access applications, even via VNC and other access methods. Is there any problem with permissions, i allowed everything. Once i stop service via ssh console, everything goes back to normal.

Installation

Note: AnyDesk is available for macOS 10.11. or later.

MacOS 11 Big Sur and newer and Apple Silicon devices are only supported on AnyDesk 6.1.0 for macOS or newer.

Older Versions of AnyDesk that supports macOS 10.10 can be found here

There are currently two installation modes for AnyDesk for macOS, A) a full installation and B) a portable installation:

A) The full installation installs both the AnyDesk client as well as the AnyDesk Services which is required to use features such as being able to connect to the macOS AnyDesk client while the user account has been switched or logged out of. To do full installation, simply click the orange 'Install Now' tile in the main AnyDesk window and accept the Terms and Conditions.

B) On the other hand, the portable installation only installs the AnyDesk client. To do so, simply drag & drop the AnyDesk application within the .DMG file to the Applications folder on the macOS device. To convert the portable installation to a full installation, simply click AnyDesk in the top global menu bar and select Install AnyDesk Service....
