You can also open this dialog by clicking on Help –> Check system access.
By default, all permissions are set to Denied.
To allow the access, select each Full Disk Access, Accessibility and Screen Recording, and enable the toggle next to TeamViewer to grant it access. You might be prompted to enter the credentials of an administrator account to continue:
Note: If you are seeing the entry TeamViewer_Desktop in your list, make sure to enable this toggle as well.
If you are not presented with the dialog
Open the Mac menu and select System Settings…
Select the Privacy & Security option on the left side and then choose each of the following sections within the list (Full Disk Access, Accessibility, Screen Recording):
When selecting Full Disk Access, Accessibility or Screen Recording, you might be prompted to enter the credentials of an administrator account to continue.
Put a check next to TeamViewer to grant it access:
Note: If you are seeing the entry TeamViewer_Desktop in your list, make sure to check this box as well.
If TeamViewer does not appear for any of the Privacy & Security options, click the small button with the plus symbol underneath the panel. This opens a Finder window. Then navigate to your Applications folder, select TeamViewer, and click Open.
Once you have done it for every category, you can close the Security & Privacy window. The next time you want to receive an incoming connection with TeamViewer, the person connecting to your Mac will be able to see and control your device.
The permission status can be reviewed under Help -> Check system access at any time.
