Hello Márcio,

Thank you for the update.

Do you mean that the both remote monitors were displayed at the same time (as if the "Entire desktop" option was selected) when the Remote Monitor switch button showed the Monitor #1 option as selected or do you mean that it was the only monitor available in the list?

Could you please send us a screenshot of the issue along with with the following specifications of your local and remote machines: OS running on the machines, installed graphics cards and all of the monitor resolutions of both local and remote monitors. I will forward this issue to our development department for further examination.
You can send the screenshot and the rest of the requested details to support@remoteutilities.com, you can also blur/hide any sensitive information if such is present on the screenshot.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Márcio,

Thank you for your clarification.

We've removed the account that was created automatically when signing in via Google. You should receive only one notification email from now on.

Hope that helps.

Hello Márcio,

Thank you for your patience.

I've checked with my coworkers on the issue - you do have two accounts registered with the same email address - one of them was automatically created when you signed in using your Google account and the second one was created by you as a regular account. Please let us know which account you prefer to use and we will remove the other one.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Sam,

Thank you for your message.

This is expected behavior, as it's usually a tech connecting to the remote Host who needs to control the mouse pointer. Could you please try switching to the View only mode during the remote session and see if this works for you? You can alternate between Full Control and View Only modes without closing the window by using the toggle icon on the Toolbar or by using Alt + F12 keyboard shortcut:

Alternatively, you can connect to the remote Host in the View only connection mode as described here.

In addition, please note that the Monitor Driver is meant to be used for the Blank remote screen feature only. The Monitor Driver was discontinued since our latest version 6.12.2.0 (Beta 2) and replaced with a new blank remote screen mechanism that allows adding a custom text to the remote screen when it is blanked.
In case if you use one of the previous versions of Remote Utilities, i.e. 6.10.10.0 or an older version, we highly recommend you to update your installation to the latest 6.12.2.0 Beta 2 version as it contains lots of bug fixes and improvements, so it might help you in resolving some issues and improving overall performance.
The latest 6.12.2.0. Beta 2 version is available for the download on this page. When updating, please make sure to update both Viewer and Host/Agent to the same version as the version mismatch might lead to performance issues or some features not working.

Hope that helps.

Hello Zomar,

Thank you for your message.

My solution was connecting a monitor to the Host PC as I was trying to run it headless.

We're glad to hear you've figured out the issue and it works for you! However, please note that typically in such cases, it's enough to enable the Use legacy capture mode feature in the Host Settings and restart the Host.
Using the latest version of Remote Utilities (as of this writing it's version 6.12.2.0 Beta 2) is also highly recommended as each new version contains lots of bug fixes and improvements, i.e. using the latest version might help in resolving some issues and improving the overall performance.

The latest 6.12.2.0. Beta 2 version is available for the download on this page. When updating, please make sure to update both Viewer and Host/Agent to the same version as the version mismatch might lead to performance issues or some features not working.

Hope that helps.

Hello Márcio,

I'm glad to hear we were able to help and it works for you now!

oh just a detail.... For each reply posted here, I get TWO email notifications. Before my current account, I used to get only 1 email per reply. I think my "old" account has the same email assigned, how is that even possible? Maybe a bug?

Of course, I'll forward this to our designated department and ask them to check if there might be any issues with your account or email address.

I'll get back to you with their reply soon.

Hello Márcio,

Thank you for the upd ate.

Perhaps, your other account was se t up with another email address or, if you used the same address, there might have been a typo, so it was possible to create a new account for the correct email address.
Could you please confirm if you have updated both Viewer and Host to the latest version 6.12.2.0 (Beta 2)? Have you had a chance to restart the remote Host machine?

If the above applies, could you please send us a video of the issue reproduced when using the latest 6.12.2.0 version once again? You can send the video to support@remoteutilities.com. In addition, please provide your local and remote machines specifications, such as OS running on the machines, graphics cards and monitor resolutions of both local and remote sides.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Ondrej,

Thank you for the update.

In this case, perhaps, the issue is indeed caused by something in the proxy server's settings, since the MSI Configurator works via the regular network connection.

Unfortunately, according to out Support Policy, we cannot assist you in resolving network administration issues. In order to resolve the issue, please try referring to your network administrator as they would be able to assist you and provide more information on the proxy server's settings. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

You can simply remove your license key on your current computer. In order to do so, in the on the Viewer ribbon toolbar navigate to the Help tab and select License Key Storage.... In the opened window select the preferred key and click Remove selected key. Then proceed with adding the license key on your other Viewer as described in this registration guide. Please note that despite its name, the Endpoint license key is added on the Viewer's side as well.

Alternatively, you can simply add the license key to your new Viewer and use it there as you are not restricted to a specific workstation with any license key, especially with an Endpoint license that only limits the number of the remote Hosts. Fore more information please see this License Comparison table.

Hope that helps

Hello Vladislav,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, we couldn't reproduce the issue. The issue might have been caused by some files in the Host installation folder being somehow corrupted or deleted (perhaps, by some antivirus/firewall software activity).

Could you please try uninstalling the Host completely as described in this uninstallation tutorial and then re-installing it from scratch?
In addition, please try adding Host installation path to the antivirus/firewall software exception list as described here to avoid future issues in this regard.

Please let us know if the issue persists even after reinstalling the Host.
