Hello Aleksandr,

Thank you for the clarification.

Could you please also clarify if you are able to connect to another Host from this Viewer? If the same issue occurs when connecting to another Host, it might mean that the Viewer configuration file was somehow corrupted or deleted.

If this is the case, please, try the following:
1. Fully exit the Viewer (File -> Exit).
2. Locate the file config_4.xml in the Remote Utilities Viewer %appdata% folder.
3. Remove the config_4.xml file from that folder.
This will reset the Viewer settings/options. Your address books won't be affected by this action.

Please let me know if the issue persists.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, there is no possibility to decrease the installation files size. I am sorry if that makes the program less useful for you.

Please let me know if you have more questions.

Hello Aleksandr,

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please clarify if you mean that you get 17 MB installation files using the MSI configurator tool? If this is the case, did you consider using the Agent package instead? Its size is only about 12 MB.

Hope that helps.

Hello Paul,

I'm glad to hear this!

Please do not hesitate to post another message if you have more questions.

Hello Paul,

Thank you for your message.

But I did not find anything about installing on a portable drive.

Portable Viewer doesn't require installation. If you already downloaded the Portable Viewer to your drive, then you can start working with it right away.
Portable Viewer stores all files in a single folder that you can copy onto the portable drive.
Here is a related Documentation article that might be helpful: https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/docs/portable-viewer/

Let me know if you have more questions.

Hello Tanner,

I'm glad to hear it worked for you!

Also, I have the viewer on other machines that work on the normal viewer fine.

It means that the config_4.xml file was corrupted and it was causing the issue. I highly recommend that you add the Viewer installation folder and the %appdata%\Remote Utilities Files\ folder to antivirus software exceptions list to avoid future problems in this regard.

Let me know if you have more questions.

Hello Tanner,

Thank you for your message.

The yellow monitor displayed on the connection icon means that the remote Host is accessible, but you are not logged on it yet.

FWIW, the portable viewer does work, so I'v been using that in the mean time.

Could you please clarify if you connect to the same Hosts using the same credentials and connection types? Also, please clarify if you launch the portable Viewer on the same machine as the Viewer that the issue occurred in?
If this is the case, the issue might have occurred if the Viewer configuration file (config_4.xml) somehow was corrupted or deleted. Please, try deleting the config_4.xml file which you may find in the %appdata%\Remote Utilities Files\ folder. This will reset the Viewer settings/options. Your address books won't be affected by this action.

Let me know if the issue persists.

Hello Luc.

Unfortunately, we couldn't reproduce the issue.

Could you please clarify if you tried the set clipboard command? It's located in the additional commands menu of the toolbar, in the Full Control window. Here's a related guide that might be helpful: https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/docs/full-control-and-view/#Additional_commands

Hope that helps.

Hello Basil,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please clarify if you mean the toolbar in the Full Control mode window? If this is the case, please make sure, you have the Pin button on the toolbar deselected:

This way, the toolbar is only visible when you hover the mouse pointer over the top edge of the Full Control window.

Hope that helps.
