Hello,

Thank you for your message.

You probably have an outdated version of Remote Utilities. This issue used to be up until version 6.5, whereas the current version is 6.8.0.1. So it is recommend that you update your Hosts (and Viewer for that matter).

Hope that helps.

Hello Donovan,

Thank you for the suggestion! Actually, the mobile version will be seriously revamped very soon and a full-fledged address book (compatible with the desktop book) will be added.

Don't hesitate to ask me if you have other questions.

Hello Donovan,

Do you receive any error message?

Hello Alan,

Does this imply that the Viewer will be out this year (2017). Not long left of this year if that's the case so you must have a date pencilled in for its release?

That is most likely. At least this is something we are currently working on most of the time. I.e. it is no longer just "planned", it's already in the works.

Thanks.

Hi Lou,

Thank you for your message.

Yes, this is a known problem. A fix requires some extensive revamp of the File Transfer mode and we have this on our roadmap. We will do our best to implement this as fast as we can, perhaps even this year.

Hello Ron,

I also recommend that you add the Host installation path to Bitdefender exceptions, just in case. Even if BD falsely detects RU in the future your Host files will be safe from deletion.

Thanks.

Hi Ron,

The connection problem might not be necessarily caused by antivirus software. Perhaps this is something else. Only the Host log can tell.  

Is there any chance you can get this log?

Hello Ron,

Thank you for your post.

It's weeks from now, but not too many. Initially, we planned to release version 6.9 much earlier. In fact it would have already been available at the moment. Then we decided to add quite a few important fixes and features - namely two-factor authentication. So it will take a while.

I had a total of about 8 machines that Windows Defender and Security Essentials had quarantined.

That might be the case, although Microsoft was very fast to fix the issue. We haven't been reported issues with Windows Defender since then.

We continue to send reports and communicate with a/v software vendors regarding false positive classifications. The problem is that nowadays almost all a/v software vendors heavily rely on machine learning algorithms which are very inaccurate. Alas, they don't care much about their customers who have to restore their lost data or installations after another erroneous detection.

Hello Marv,

The issue seems to have been resolved. Please, check this thread .

Update on this detection: Windows Defender seems to no longer detect rfusclient.exe as a threat. Please, update your Windows Defender threat definitions.



To restore the deleted rfusclient.exe file from Windows Defender quarantine:

1. Open Windows Defender, click Virus & Threat Protection.

2. Click Scan History.

3. In the quarantined files section locate the file and click Restore.

Please, confirm that the issue has been resolved.

Thanks.
