Feature request: Option to save password for session only

Links used in this discussion
Support level: Free or trial
If there is a drop-out during a session, you need to re-enter your password. You could select Save Password on the login screen, but I don't want someone to be able to have access to remote systems without needing to enter the password, so I have never checked that box.
Hello Dax,

Thank you for your message.

Someone will only be able to access a remote system if they have access to your Viewer app on that specific computer. Remote Utilities keeps its address book locally, not in the cloud.

If this is an issue, you can additionally encrypt your address book with a password that only you know. Here is how: https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/docs/encrypting-address-books/

This will let you save your passwords without worrying that your address book can be accessed by someone else.
