bug, regression, or feature? :D
Hello Jay,
Thank you for your message.
Unfortunately, we couldn't reproduce the issue in our environment. Could you please clarify if you have both Viewer and Hosts updated to the most recent version 7.1.7.0? If some of your Hosts are not updated yet, please make sure to update them so that there's no version mismatch which might be resulting in this behavior.
In case if all of the remote Hosts have already been updated, then please let us know at least an approximate number of remote Hosts that you're trying to log off from when the issue occurs.
Looking forward to your reply.

Can’t connect to automatic server (new update)
Hello Victor,
Thank you for your message.
Could you please clarify if you've already updated all Remote Utilities modules to the latest version 7.1.7.0 (version 3.3.2.0 for the RU Server)? In addition, please let us know if you have any antivirus/firewall software installed on any side of the connection and if yes, please also let us know the name of the software.
Looking forward to your reply.

ViewerID in Ru Logs
Hello,
Thank you for your patience.
I’ve checked with developers regarding the Viewer ID found in the log files: for now it’s a randomly generated ID number assigned to a Viewer each time when Viewer is launched. However, we will definitely improve this in our future updates in order to make the Viewer ID more identifiable for techs or remote users.
Hope that helps.

Beta testing: Remote Utilities for macOS/Linux
Beta testing: Remote Utilities for macOS/Linux
Hello Yoel,
Thank you for your message.
Unfortunately, Viewer for Mac/Linux doesn't support the RDP connection mode. However, I'll forward your inquiry to our development department for a review to see if we can somehow implement this feature in our future updates (which, if doable, might take a little longer than other connection methods due to the RDP's nature).
Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hello William and Christopher,
Thank you for your messages.
Could you please let us know if you have any antivirus software installed on the remote Host machines that you can't connect to (even if it's Windows Defender)? If yes, then could you please double-check if your antivirus has detected any Remote Utilities files and/or quarantined them - in this case please add the installation folder to the exception list as described here. You can also submit the file to the antivirus vendor for a review as a part of a false positive report - this will help to make sure that the file is not detected anymore.
In addition, perhaps, this KB troubleshooting page might provide some useful information.
Please let us know if you have more questions.

Hidden Install
Hello Rob,
Do you mean that you want to update existing Hosts remotely and/or change their settings remotely? If this is the case, then you can try using the Remote Install Tool - this tool can help you to install, update or delete Hosts remotely.
If you mean something else, please let us know.
Hope that helps.

Hidden Install
Hello Rob,
Thank you for your message.
In order to use the installation package for a hidden Host install you'd need to choose the default Host EXE or the Host MSI package - these both can be used for silent installation via the standard means (e.g. /quite or /qn options). You can also choose the Host EXE package (One-click) - it also installs in the background and only displays a quick prompt in the beginning asking for user consent.
The rest of the configuration process would go as usual, i.e. after choosing your package, you can continue with preferred settings for your Host.
In addition, this guide on the MSI Configurator Tool might be useful - you can also find description for the next steps of the process by switching to the next part of the guide in the left pane.
Please let us know if you have more questions.
