Certain keys (Enter, CTRL, Shift etc) not working on Remote Host

Hello J,

Thank you for your contribution.

We, in turn, will try to reproduce the issue and see if it's somehow connected with the Microsoft Office "Click-to-Run Update Support" process.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have other questions.

Certain keys (Enter, CTRL, Shift etc) not working on Remote Host

Hello Alex,

Thank you for your message.

We will try to reproduce the issue to see if there's anything we can do to fix it. Could you please also check if the issue occurs on some other machine where the Windows update is not installed yet if it's possible?

In addition, please try the workaround suggested by J Mo in the message above and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

Looking forward to your reply.

failed connection until host restarted

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please clarify if the remote Host machine stays on after the Host was restarted and the connection to the machine was successfully established? Or if the remote machine is off, for example, at nights?

Also, could you please check if the Host's Startup mode is set to Auto or Manual? In order to check it, please right-click on the Host icon in the system tray and select Settings for Host, then navigate to the Service state tab:

If the Startup mode is set to Manual, please try switching it to Auto.

In addition, please double-check if the Host service is running on the remote Host machine when the issue occurs?

If the Host service is not running on the remote machine at the moment when the issue occurs, please try referring to this troubleshooting guide before we can proceed to further troubleshooting.

Please let me know if the issue persists.

RDP desktop resolution

Hello Pete,

I apologize for my somewhat misleading previous replies.

Could you please let me know if I'm right in assuming that you need to set the RDP resolution as fullscreen for all connections that are added to your address book? If this is the case, you can set default connection properties that will apply to all newly created connections.
To set the RDP resolution in the default connection properties, please do the following:
1. In the main Viewer window, select the Tools tab and click Default Connection Properties:
 - 17 Dec 2019 12:41:12
2. Navigate to the RDP tab and repeat the steps I've listed in my very first message.
This way, the screen resolution should be set as default for all connections that are created afterward. Also please let me know if the issue with the port number and computer name still persists in this case.

Looking forward to your reply.

Remote Viewer cut off Application

Hello Andrew,

Could you please clarify if I'm right in assuming that it's not possible to view the entire QuickBooks application window in the Full Control and View mode? If this is the case, could you please clarify which screen view mode do you use? In addition, please try using the Stretch view or the Fullscreen stretch view and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

If you mean something else, could you please elaborate a bit on the issue? Also, it would be helpful if you could send us a screenshot of the issue.  You can send it to support@remoteutilities.com if you don't want to share it in the Community.

Looking forward to your reply.
