Hello Angus,

Thank you for your post.

You must click on the "Change password" button to enable the edit mode for these fields. By the way, in version 6.9.0.1 (currently in beta) we changed the Host settings interface and made a single and more streamlined settings window.

Hi Gururek,

I'm glad to see you managed to figure out the issue.

Was that mentioned in the installation procedure as a requirement?

This is not a firm requirement, rather a recommendation. Yes, it is mentioned in
server installation guide.

Don't hesitate to ask me if you have other questions.

Also, do you use address book sync through the server and if yes, approximately how many records does your address book have?

Thank you.

Hello Cristian,

Thank you for the update. Please, let us know if the problem persists in the future.

Hello,

The video mode feature has been discontinued and will no longer be available. As for the message banner in previous versions, it is a necessary precaution against unauthorized use of the software to breach into someone else's privacy.

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Are you restarting the server service or Host's?

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for your post. This knowledge base article can help https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/kb/invalid-registration-key-when-registering-remote-utilities/

Hello Max,

Thank you for your post.

You do not need to run the Host with a shortcut, it isn't supposed to work that way. When you install the Host with default settings its service should automatically with Windows. If it doesn't, you should figure out why , this knowledge base article can help. You can also manually start and stop the Host service by using shortcuts "Start Host" and "Stop Host" found in the Windows Start menu.

However, when you directly click on rutserv.exe file in the Program Files folder you run the Host in the Agent mode. This behavior is a side effect of the current implementation and we will fix that soon.  

Hope that helps.

Hello Cristian,

Thank you for your post.

It looks like your admin console has difficulty accessing the data folder. The address book is located here  C:\Program Files (x86)\Remote Utilities - Server\data .

Did you try restarting the computer since you installed the server?

Hello Philip

This is not only an application password, perhaps the wording in the interface is misleading a bit. This is also address book encryption passphrase.  If you forgot the passphrase, you cannot unlock or otherwise restore the address books because they remain encrypted.

You can, however, unlock the interface if you delete config_4.xml file located in the Viewer application folder (%APPDATA%\Remote Utilities Files\ ) . Note, that the Viewer won't be able to load your encrypted books (because they are encrypted on disc) and will create a new, empty default address book for you.

Hope that helps. You can learn more about how address book encryption works by following the link above.
