Viewer corrupt / fails to open

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

I'm glad to hear we were able to help and it works for you now!

I've tried changing the view mode, but none of the options worked.
I tried checking and unchecking "constrain proportions" and that didn't work either.

Could you please try setting you View mode to Stretch mode and see if this helps to resolve the issue? This can be done in the Connection Properties window -> Mode tab - this should save your settings for a specific remote Host and apply them when you connect to this Host next time.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, the Remote Camera feature was discontinued starting the release of version 6.9 of Remote Utilities in 2018. Sorry if this makes our software less useful for you.

Please let us know if you have other questions.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

If I upgrade or buy the Pro version, this message will disappear forever from my hosts?

Yes, the notification banner is not shown when connecting to remote Hosts via Viewer registered with any commercial license (i.e. Starter, Mini, Endpoint or Pro).

In this case, using the Viewer, Can I click on the message using the Full control feature or the person who is the host clicks, only once and the message will not appear anymore?

No, the notification banner will not be displayed at all. However, you can always enable this notification banner in the Host Settings -> on the Interface tab.

Please let us know if you have more questions.

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

This issue might be occurring if the Viewer's configuration file or some other files were somehow damaged/corrupted (perhaps, by some antivirus/firewall software activity).
Could you please try the solutions listed on this Knowledge Base page and see if any of them help to resolve the issue?

Please let us know if the issue persists.

Viewer cannot conect to host if using talktalk ISP

Hello Brett,

Thank you for your message.

It seems like the TalkTalk ISP is mistakenly blocking the access to our website and our servers as well for some reason. Please consider contacting the TalkTalk ISP support team and asking them to stop blocking access to Remote Utilities as their customer, since they're more likely to assist their own customer in such scenario (since the issue would come from their own customer who's affected by this block).

Please let us know if you have more questions.

Free license: Notification near the system tray and other changes

Hello Fred,

Thank you for your message.

Ideally, the notification should have a "remove" option on each connection by the Host User, but protected fr om removal by the Remote Viewer so hidden sessions are not possible.

Unfortunately, we do not plan to add this option for this specific notification banner due to security concerns. We're sorry if this makes our software less useful for you.

Please note that in the future updates it's going to be possible to select a preferred corner of the screen wh ere a user wants to display the notification banner. Unfortunately, there's no specific ETA on this yet.

Hope that helps.

Hello Philip,

Thank you for your message.

Please note that the Internet-ID connection for version 6 of Remote Utilities registered with the free license or running in a trial mode was discontinued. For more information on these changes please see this page.

In order to resolve this issue, please upgrade your Remote Utilities installation to the latest version 7.1.2.0 as described here. After upgrading your both Host and Viewer to the latest version, you should be able to connect using Internet-ID connection.

Hope that helps.
