Hi:
I am connecting OK using the V7.0.2.0 Agent with Legacy Capture Mode. Today, while I was connected to a different customer than the one's I had the issue with and OK using the V7.0.2.0 Agent with Legacy Capture Mode, it seemed to drop the connection and was trying to re-connect. The re-connect didnt work so I had the customer shut down the agent and tried to connect. I got the full-screen World Map stuck on my screen. Ctl-Alt-Del and selecting Task Mgr just flashed the Task Manager then went back to World Map.
We have a problem here!
I can't keep doing hard resets on my system, losing data and running the risk of damaging my hard drive.

HI. It works fine with one of my customers. With the 2nd that I had the problem with yesterday, I upgraded them to Host 7.0.2.0 and had the same problem with it stuck on the full-screen World Map today.

I use the MSI-Configurator in the7020 Viewer to generate an Agent package with my logo.
Where can I enable the 'Use Legacy Capture' you suggest using that method to create the Host.

Thanks..
PS - I am currently using the 10 License Free but expect to be purchasing the 20 license $99 package soon.

Hi:
I am using the V 7.0.2.0 Viewer. I have had the problem twice now where after I click on one of my connections and enter the password, I get the world map full screen saying "Connecting to xxx. Please Wait." and iy stays stuck on this screen. If I do Ctl-Alt-Del, most of the time nothing happens. Maybe one time out of ten, the screen comes up where I can click Task Manager, but then Task Manager flashes and it goes back to the World Map. Alt-Tab doesnt work. Alt-F4 to exit doesnt worn and WindowsKey+X doesnt work.
Yesterday, if i waited a while, the World Map wold eventually close. Today, I waited ten minutes, it didnt go away and I had to do a hard-reset and lost a lot of work and corrupted my email program files.
I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do with your workaround. I only do Full Control sessions. I have no control over my computer to do anything else!
