Hello Lazaro,

Thank you for your message.

Do you mean that when running Agent you see the UAC prompt? If this is the case, then please note that it's expected behavior, as for some operations admin privileges may be required, that's why running the Agent causes UAC prompt to show. The user can choose whether they want to run it with elevated privileges or not - if they click Cancel the Agent will run as a normal user.

Hope that helps.

Android Access Violation Error in RU Viewer When Caption Field Edited

Hello,

Thank your message.

Could you please double-check if you're using the latest version of mobile Viewer for Android? We've released an updated version 12.02 just a few days ago with an implemented fix for the issue with custom fields, such as the "Caption" field.
In addition, we recommend that you update your Android device to the latest version 11 as well, since in our latest updates we've implemented a few fixes for compatibility with Android 11.

Hope that helps.

Add using Code, tie it to an RU-Server

Hello Brad,

Thank you for your message.

but I can only add using the code from 1 computer because of security(I assume this) that generated the support agent.

Yes, you are absolutely right - in order to add a remote Host to your address book via the Add using code feature, you need to add it via the same Viewer that has generated the MSI installation package.  

Please note that if you use your RU Server as a relay server, you can set up an automatic import of new Hosts - this way, your Hosts will be automatically added to a designated folder in your address book once the Hosts reveal themselves to the Server (i.e. connect to the Server the first time). This feature can replace the "Send via email" feature, especially in the described scenario. For more information on setting up the Auto import feature for your RU Server please refer to this step-by-step tutorial.

Hope that helps.

Hello everyone,

Thank you for your patience.

Boris, thank you for your input on this, we really appreciate it!

Mister X, I've checked with our developers on this and they've confirmed that the Host registry key contains XML encoded as UTF-8. So in this case, Boris's advice should work perfectly.

Hope that helps.

Lost Protection Host password

Hello Bertrand,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please let me know if you've tried to completely uninstall Host as described in this full uninstallation tutorial? Namely, after uninstalling Host, please also try deleting the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Usoris\Remote Utilities Host\ and the C:\Program Files (x86)\Remote Utilities - Host\ folder - this should completely wipe out any traces of the previous installation.

In addition, if you use a custom MSI installation package to re-install Host, please make sure to create a new custom installer or try installing Host from a vanilla installer that you can download on our website, as the old installation package might include the Settings protection password.

Hope that helps.

Hello Aitch,

Thank you for your message.

The issue might be occurring if the Viewer installation folder or the address book file was somehow damaged or corrupted (perhaps, by some antivirus software).
Please try completely uninstalling Viewer as described in this full uninstallation guide.
Before uninstalling Viewer completely please copy your address book from an automatic backup as described in this guide. Automatic daily backups of your address books are enabled by default when you install Viewer and are located in this folder: C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Roaming\Remote Utilities Files\backups\.

After you've uninstalled Viewer completely, please try re-installing it once again from scratch, but this time I recommend that you also add the Viewer installation folder to your antivirus/firewall software exception list as described here.

Hope that helps.
