Yes, it works now. I was able to change my password.

Website remoteutilities.com/support/customer

I want to change my password. It shows my account name and email address, and when I click "Edit profile", it takes me to the screen remoteutilities.com/support/forums/user/6384/edit/ and the page says "Access denied".

Ok, so I log out then log back in, but click the link that says "Forgot your password?" and the next screen requests my email, then when I click submit it says CAPTCHA code is incorrect, but there was no captcha code.

I sent the viewer side log file to support@remoteutilities.com. Cannot send host log file because I can't connect to it.

Thanks for looking into this problem.

Down for me too.

Yes, it is a specific action. It is when I click the red X to close the app. That is the only time I've seen it happen. But the frequency of it happening is random, it doesn't happen all the time.

Several times a week, the Viewer crashes with a run time error. There is a windows that pops up with the error code, but it goes away too fast for me to write the info down. But here are the two entries entered into Windows Event Viewer:

I'm running viewer 7.1.7.0 and it NEVER remembers which monitor the remote session was displayed on. I have the main panel on monitor #2 (to keep it out of the way), and when I connect to a host, the world map splash screen always opens on monitor #2, and then the remote session to the host opens on monitor #2. I then move it to monitor #1 which is where I want it. But the next time I start a session, it always starts on monitor #2.

That is not the only problem I've noticed with window placement. I'll attach a screen shot. If I use file transfer, the transfer window opens but is partially offscreen. In particular, the Close button, as you can see. Even though I move it to a better place so I can click the close button, it always opens partially off screen on subsequent uses.

Neither of these problems are a big deal, but are somewhat annoying.

What would be really cool is if I could draw on the host's screen. For example, to draw a red circle around a certain word or phrase to show the host user something important. Or the ability to highlight a particular area of the screen.

Regarding being able to move the banner to a different corner - will that include any of the 4 corners on a second attached monitor or only on monitor #1?

- Windows 10 and later: the notification can be made visible for the remote side only, and invisible on the Viewer side. We are still investigating this option, but most likely it is possible to implement.

- Ability to pick the corner in which the notification will be shown.

This means that if I am a support person (viewer) who connects to a client's computer (host), I will NOT see the notification banner? I will not be able see everything that is on my client's screen when I am asked to assist? If I can't see it, how will I be able to pick a corner for the notification to be shown?
