Hello Will,

Thank you for your patience.

I've checked on the issue with our developers - unfortunately, it seems that the issue is caused by some system administration issues. Remote Utilities launches and utilizes the standard RDP protocol and only provides a transport tunnel for the connection, therefore, all of the access and permissions issues within the RDP connections should be resolved by your system administrator as it's, unfortunately, beyond our scope of technical support.
As for the access permissions when using RDP-over-ID, each user on each remote machine has a different SID, even for users with the same usernames. Unfortunately, most of the time a user's permissions cannot be configured out of the domain and then transferred to another machine. It's only possible for standard groups and for domain users (not for local ones), located within the domain.

Unfortunately, according to our Support Policy, we cannot assist you in resolving system/network administration issues. In order to resolve such issues, please refer to your system administrator and request them to further investigate the issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hope that helps.

Hello Julius,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, you're absolutely correct. Please note additionally, that you don't need to register your mobile Viewer on Android/iOS device as it's free for use - you only need to register your Viewers running on Windows machines as described in this guide.

In addition, please note that the minimum purchase for the Endpoint license is 10 endpoints. For more information please also see our License Comparison table here.

Hope that helps.

Hello Will,

Thank you for the provided log files and additional information.

Could this issue be related to the Beta version I am running on the viewer and the host?

This is very unlikely - we couldn't reproduce the issue using the latest Beta version via RDP-over-ID connection mode and if that would be the case, our forum would be flooded with bug reports regarding the issue.

I've examined your logs and did not find anything that might be pointing to the issue's cause. I will additionally forward the log files along with the issue description and the screenshots to our developers and ask for their input on this to see if there's anything that can be done to fix the issue.

I'll get back to you soon with their reply.

Hello Will,

Thank you for the clarification.

Could you please also clarify if it's possible to connect to this remote Host machine when using Full Control and View connection mode via Internet-ID connection?
Also, could you please double-check if the RDP connection mode allowed in the Host Settings -> Modes tab and also if you have the Do not capture RDP sessions checkbox enabled on the Other tab?

In case if you're experiencing such connectivity issues using both RDP-over-ID and Internet-ID connection as well, please feel free to send us the Host log files for examination to see if it's possible to identify what might be causing the problem. You can send the logs to support@remoteutilities.com.

However, please note that the RDP mode in Remote Utilities just launches the native Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection client from within Remote Utilities and connects to a remote computer using the standard RDP protocol.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hello Michael,

Thank you for your message.

The issue might be caused by outdated security protocols (namely TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1) which are no longer supported by the configuration server.
Before we can proceed to further troubleshooting, could you please try enabling TLS 1.2 support on your Viewer machine? In order to do so, please try following this step-by-step guide on how to enable TLS 1.2 support.

Please let me know if the solution above did not help and the issue persists.

Hello Howard,

Thank you for the update.

Unfortunately, in this case only a complete reinstallation of Windows might help to resolve the issue as it's caused by some specific configurations inside the system itself being damaged.
You can additionally try using System File Checker tool. However, please note that we cannot provide further assistance with repairing/reinstalling Windows as it's beyond the scope of our technical support. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hello Kaelyn,

Thank you for your patience.

I've checked on the issue with our developers - unfortunately, this is expected behavior that cannot be fixed in the nearest future. However, we plan to improve the mapping mechanism for multi-monitor setups in our future updates - perhaps, we will be able to fix this behavior of the cursor then. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hello Kaelyn,

Thank you for your patience.

I've forwarded the issue to our developers. Meanwhile, could you please also try enabling the Use legacy capture mode feature in the Host Settings -> Other tab and see if this helps to resolve the issue? Please make sure to restart the Host after enabling the feature in order for the changes to be applied.

Please let us know if this worked for you or if the issue persists.

Hello Howard,

Thank you for your patience.

I've checked on the issue with our developers - unfortunately, this issue usually occurs if there's something wrong (i.e. was somehow damaged or corrupted) in the operating system itself.
Unfortunately, according to our Support Policy, we cannot assist in resolving system administration issues. In this case, the best solution that will most likely help to resolve the issue is to reinstall your Windows OS from scratch (or to contact your system administrator and request them to reinstall the OS). Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hope that helps.

Hello Kaelyn,

Thank you for the clarification.

I will forward the issue to our development department for further review. I'll get back to you as soon as I hear back from our developers on the issue.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
