Hello Scott,

Thank you for your message.

You should reset your Viewer configuration file:

1. Fully exit the Viewer (File -> Exit).  
2. Open C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Remote Utilities Files\ folder. Note that the AppData folder may be hidden by default in which case you'll need to enable "Hidden files and folders" in Windows Explorer settings.  
3. In the folder above locate the file config_4.xml and delete it.  
4. Run the Viewer and re-register it with your license key.

Also, see if you still have your address book backups in that folder. This will let you restore your address book as described here.

Hope that helps.

Hello Andy,

Are you running the latest beta on both ends? I.e. beta 4.

Thank you for your reply. I will try that. Do you know when the beta will be pushed to a stable release?

We are going to release the stable version within a month from now.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

When attempting connection do you select the Full Control and View connection mode or RDP mode?

Please, note that the RDP mode just runs the native Microsoft RDP client for you. In order to change the login settings for that mode you can use the RDP tab in connection properties:

Hello Brian,

Thank you for your message.

We can only recommend that you try the latest beta version (Viewer, Host and Server) and see if it fixes the issue. There have been a lot of improvements in this beta including fixes to connectivity issues on RU Server etc, see release notes.

You can download the beta from here https://www.remoteutilities.com/download/beta.php

Hello Victor,

If multiple authentication methods are enabled on the remote Host (e.g. Single password, AND RU Security etc.) the program still uses one of them during a connection. Which one depends on your settings on the Viewer side -> Connection properties -> Authentication tab.



If Auto is set the Viewer uses the first available authentication method according to this order:

Custom Server Security (CSS)
Windows Security
Remote Utilities Security
Single password

As you can see, since you have enabled RU Security and Single password and have your auth method set to Auto, Viewer will always force RU Security when you authenticate.

To override this behavior for specific Hosts you just need to select the desired authentication method in the drop down list and Viewer will always use that. In your example just select Single password to override the automatic sequence check.

Hope that helps.

Hi Rob,

It's the regular 443.

Could it be that you have a proxy in between the Internet and your network from where you are trying to access the configuration server?

Hi Rob,

Does it show any specific error?

Also, you should make sure that you allow *.remoteutilities.com on your perimeter firewall for Viewer app.

Hello Rob,

Thank you for your message.

I have just checked the work of MSI configurator (Viewer 6.10 stable, if that's the version that you mean). It works.

Or maybe you meant something else by the configuration server?
