Mouse not working on specific area

I got a strange problem, if i connect to my other PC I noticed I could not click on a button, I didnt understand why. Then i realized there is a specific area the mouse just wont work when connecting with Remote Utilities. Just to confirm I tested it with a different remote tool and everything worked.

Can anyone explain this? The whole area on the screenshot will be ignored by RemoteUtilities. I can move the mouse there, but clicking it wont recognize.

Mouse not working on specific area
Hello Michael,

Thank you for your message.

The issue might be caused by an antivirus or a firewall software having a self-protection feature enabled. This feature prevents the software settings to be manipulated remotely and it might be the reason that prevents mouse-clicks from working.
Please refer to the related article in our Knowledge Base: https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/kb/cannot-edit-antivirus-software-settings-remotely/

Hope that helps.
