Just an Update Info

Hello John,

Thank you for your message.

Seems like the Windows update affects Remote Utilities somehow - perhaps, by deleting some files or registry keys. Actually, one more user have also reported that updating their Windows affected their RU installation.
I'll forward this to our developers as well - perhaps, we will be able to reproduce the issue and find out what exactly this update does is that we can fix it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'll get back to you with an update on this shortly.

Hello Patrick,

Thank you for the clarification.

In this case, the comment field's content might be disappearing since your address book syncs with the address book on the RU Server that doesn't have these changes yet. Could you please try signing in to your RU Server first and then adding the text to the comments field afterwards? This way, both address books will sync automatically and the comments should be added to the Server's address book as well, so the next time you run Viewer or sign in to your Server, the comment field should stay intact.

Please let us know if this works or if the issue persists.

Hello Patrick,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please clarify if you mean the comments for the connections in the AD tree that are displayed in the Viewer's navigation pane as described here or do you mean that you have the AD integration set up via RU Server as described here?

Looking forward to your reply.

Unable to direct connect

Hello Chris,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please try uninstalling your Host completely as described by following this tutorial, then re-installing it from scratch and connecting to the Host once again to see if the issue persist?
If the issue persists after re-installing as well, please also try referring to this troubleshooting guide and see if the solutions listed there help to resolve the issue.

Finally, if the solutions above didn't help, please feel free to send us the latest Host logs for examination. You can locate the Host logs in the following folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Remote Utilities - Host\Logs\. You can send the log files to support@remoteutilities.com.

Hope that helps.

Digital world map hogs desktop

Hello Basil,

Thank you for your message.

This was a known issue that was fixed in the most recent updates. Please make sure that you have both Host and Viewer updated to the latest version 7.1.2.0 and there's no version mismatch which can lead to performance issues or some features not working.
You can upgrade your Remote Utilities installation to the latest version by following this guide.

If your Host and Viewer are already updated to the latest version, please try enabling the Use legacy capture mode feature in the Host Settings -> Other tab and see if this helps to resolve the issue. After enabling the feature, please restart Host in order for the changes to be applied.

Hope that helps.

Starting connection from URL

Hello Emir,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, we cannot assist you with setting up the Myrtille URL. However, please consider enabling the Sign in automatically feature in the Sign in window in the main Viewer window. In addition, please try using our URI Generator to run Viewer with some certain parameters.

Hope that helps.
