Viewer corrupt / fails to open

I realized that it didn't do any good to go to 'Default connection properties' on my PC. I finally realized you have to go to the host pc and change it there.

I didn't see anything about this in the manual.

Also, if it doesn't help to change the settings on my local viewer PC, why do they even have that as an option? I tried so many changes on my pc and it never seemed to do anything.

Thanks

... or do I have to reboot my local PC every time I config the view mode? Because it seemed like no matter what settings I chose - the remote screen always looked the same - with scroll bars to see everything.

deleting config_4.xml did work.

BUT... now my view settings are gone.

I want it back to where there were bars on the sides if necessary so that I didn't have to use scroll bars. I want to see the whole remote pc screen all the time.

I've tried changing the view mode, but none of the options worked.
I tried checking and unchecking "constrain proportions" and that didn't work either.

What is the best combination of settings to fix this?

Thank you!!!

... although Viewer was working fine on the problem PC until I tried to do a remote file transfer session. That's when it went bad, and then after that I could never even open Viewer again at all.

I can't open RU anymore. I get error.

1) I tried rebooting, but that didn't work
2) I tried uninstalling and re-installing Viewer and that didn't help
3) It was working fine on latest version of RU, but then it just stopped working.

I'm thinking this might also be related to why the Simple Update fails too.

"You don't have permissions"
Anytime I try to download either the exe or msi file, it fails as it says I don't have permissions. I think it's an issue of the download not being certified with Microsoft?

I never have this problem with any other files, and I know I don't have any restrictions. I'm an IT and have tried trouble shooters, not having restrictions on the UAC of my Windows user, etc.

I've tried 3 browsers and that doesn't help.

I'm on Windows 10

It didn't help for me to add the folders you suggested for exception - it is focused on the \windows\temp\host_upgrade file and I don't want to exclude the /temp folder - that would be very risky
