Is it possible to get a connection mode like remote registry but with Event Viewer. Would be nice to be able to see error logs and such without interrupting users.

Thank you!

Hello Matt,

Thank you for your post.

This suggestion is on our wish list. We will certainly implement it in one of the future updates.

could you allow remote access to the compmgmt.msc which gives access to most features?

Hello Brian,

You mean direct access, a connection mode similar to Terminal or Remote Registry mode, not just running compmgmt.msc in the Full Control mode?

This would be great if event viewer could be added just like this without needing to log in & disturb the screen.

As we mentioned above, we plan to implement this feature in our future updates.

Let us know if you have more questions.

Hello Muhammad,

Thank you for your message.

We definitely plan to implement this feature in our future updates, but, unfortunately, we cannot provide any specific ETA yet.

Please let me know if you have other questions.

For those that don't know, you can access the Windows Event Log from the command line interface (Terminal).

"wevtutil qe Application /c:50 /rd:true /f:text" - List last 50 logs from Applications
"wevtutil qe System /c:50 /rd:true /f:text"        - List last 50 logs from System
