Hello Everyone,

Yes, unfortunately it's a bug which manifests itself on Windows XP. In a week or so we will release version update which will include a fix. For the time being, you can indeed use Viewer 7.0.2 version on that Windows XP machine.

Here is for your convenience: https://www.remoteutilities.com/test/viewer7.0.2.0.exe

Viewer Update problem

Hi Colin,

It looks like its a detection of "potentially unsafe/unwanted" programs (hence "not-a-virus") where all remote access programs naturally fall into. Usually this detection is either disabled by default (e.g. Eset) or the antivirus software explicitly asks if you want to enable detection of such programs.

If you write to Kaspersky and ask them about that they will tell you that this detection is benign and is just for your information.

Hello Matthew,

Video hook drivers are actually an outdated technology. Here is from Microsoft https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/display/mirror-drivers .

Thanks.

I have the same problem, both Opera and Chrome won't allow me to download the new 7.1.1.0 versions of the Host and Agent.
Don't seem to have had this problem before...
I'm reluctant to turn off my AV to download the files.
Please advise ASAP.
Thanks

Hello Colin,

Just checked with Chrome - downloads both Agent and Host (exe and msi) without an issue. Also we checked Google Search Console, the section 'Security issues' and 'Manual actions'. There are no issues there. That is, the site is clean in the eyes of Google.

Hello Werner,

What antivirus software do you use?

Hi Jeffrey,

If you generated your license key using the form, you should have received the key via email. Apply the key in Viewer as described on this page.

Hope that helps.

You computer has been connected in a remote session...

Hi John,

1) Yes. Actually, from any Viewer computer registered with your key. Our license is floating meaning that the actual number of Viewer copies that you can register is unlimited, so long as you work from one Viewer at a time.

2) No. Only Viewer (the user/admin module) needs to be registered. Hosts/Agents do not require registration.

3) You can remove computers from your address book in Viewer and add new ones. Whether you uninstall its coutnerpart (Host) on the remote computer or not doesn't matter.

4) If you mean this message , it will not be visible if you are connecting from a Viewer registered with a commercial license.

5) Yes, at 50% of the price. This has been our standard upgrade policy for years.

6) We have never killed the service for paid users. Paid users of version 6 can use the product and service just as they did. The today's newsletter was about the free license users only.

7) You only need a 1-tech license in this case.

Let me now if you have any other questions.

License is changed?

Hello,

Yes, in the new version the Online option of the configurator is only available for paid users. We no longer allow free and trial users to build a package signed with our digital signature.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
