Hello Frank,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, a full-fledged address book hasn't been available in the mobile version yet. However, we are planning to implement it very soon.

So far in the mobile version you can only have your address book as a simple list of entries.

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

Hello Chad,

Thank you for your suggestion. Yes, we will add an "Open console" item to the menu soon.

Hello Marv,

Thank you for your post.

And the "Update outdated hosts" selection in the viewer seems to be hit or miss - sometimes it works, sometimes not, sometimes if I run it three or four consecutive times for a given host it will finally work.

The Simple update feature works for version 6.6.0.3 onwards. If you attempt to update earlier Hosts, it won't work on them because older Hosts simply don't have the code that would process the update (make it happen).

Here is more about update and Simple update https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/docs/updating-remote-utilities/

These irritations have been pretty consistent throughout the last few versions (just updated to 6.8.0.1 tonight).

There were indeed some issues with MSI, update and Host not starting in the several recent versions and we fixed them. For example, see our Release Notes for version 6.7.0.2.

What's the prognosis? I know this sounds like just a general rant rather than specific problems to solve, but I'm not imaging it and I really want to keep liking and using your software.

Try to make sure you update both sides - Viewer and Host - to version 6.8.0.1 and let us know if you find any issues.

Thank you.

You are welcome :)

Hello Mike,

Thank you for your post.

Actually, you do not need the old installer. This is an issue with MSI temporary files. You just to clear fix program uninstall. Microsoft offers a free fixing tool for that:

After you fixed the problem you can try installing the latest Viewer.

Let us know if it works for you. Thanks.

Hello Chad,

Thank you for your post.

The task manager shows that the admin console is running. It should be in the system tray, perhaps hidden by the expanding arrow. Could you please check that?

If you see the server icon (a black and yellow monitor + mouse) , single-click on it to bring up the Admin Console window.

This thread is devoted to version 6.8 and a new MSI Configurator with the option to digitally sign your custom builds. To learn more about this update please read this blog post.

Your questions as well as general feedback are welcome.

Great! I'm glad to hear you resolved the issue.

Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks!

Hi Michael,

Excellent! Let us know if you need any other assistance.

Thanks.

Hi Rod,

Also, please try enabling "Use legacy capture mode" in the Host settings. Sometimes it helps override this problem.

Thanks.
