When using Agent on the remote machine, I mark Restart after reboot.
But the Agent ius never starting again, and the remote user has to start Agent before I can connect again.
How can I make the Agent restart after reboot? When updating Windows it is necessary to restart, so yhis is really needed.

Hello Jørgen,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, we couldn't reproduce the issue - the Agent starts after the system reboot right away. Could you please double-check with the remote user if they see an UAC prompt window for the Agent after the system is rebooted? If this is the case, then the user should click "Yes"/"No" button on the UAC prompt in order to proceed, so that the Agent starts running.

Alternatively, please consider using the Host module instead as it always starts with Windows by default. For more information please see this page.

Hope that helps.
