When I last checked in on this, I narrowed it down to an issue with .net framework and the event log. Errors like this are prevalent in internet land, but with no real resolution. I thought I tried compiling with a newer version of .net Framework and it didn't fix it.. but I will have to double...

Seems the 1.9.1 post still works: need GenControl alternative for Windows 7

Yes same issue. Here is my output running as administrator: FeatureName ----------- WCF-TCP-PortSharing45 NetFx4-AdvSrvs NetFx3 WCF-Services45 WindowsMediaPlayer Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features NetFx4Extended-ASPNET45 MediaPlayback RSATClient-Roles-RDS-LicensingDiagUI...

The issue with the eventlog appears to be something with Windows 10 and the .net EventLog Class. I have found other reports of the issue without much insight into what could be done to remediate. Interestingly, I don't have this issue in my environment. Here is an example of one thing I found...

Thanks.. Ill probably have you test as well after I get deeper into what is going on. I really wish I could reproduce this on my end.

Thanks for the information scooter I think that's the problem. I will reach out to you directly to test a version that should log an error so we can get to the bottom of why it cant create the event source on your Windows 10 boxes. RE- Remote Registry service for whoever asked that question...

Can you try connecting to a Windows 10 computer that you have never connected to before? If you get this error, can you log into the computer you attempted to connect to and run the following powershell command as an administrator? (Get-ChildItem...

Can you provide a screenshot of what happens? Or more information? I cant seem to reproduce as with the latest version that I posted (1.9.1) I don't have any issues with going from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

I will look into it next week. I don't know why connecting to Svr2k8R2 would be different when your coming from a different operating system; unless you have outbound firewall rules that are in play. Most of the time, only inbound rules exist. Thanks for the testing. Is it at least better than...

I couldn't stop.. 1.9.1 1.) Fixed Spelling in Release notes since apparently i cant spell. 2.) Fixed issue with new RealVNC viewer prompting about "Unencrypted Connection". Virus Total: **THERE ARE FALSE POSITIVES HERE DUE TO BEING COMPILED WITH VISUAL STUDIO 2015...

Hello all, I believe the problem with my application was because of the old version of TightVNC. I updated it to the latest version (2.7.10) as well as the RealVNC viewer to the latest (5.2.3). Ive tested it in a very limited capacity and it seemed to work. Since ive been so scarce lately I...

I haven't updated anything in quite awhile so I imagine you are having the same issues as everyone else with using it to connect to Win10 machines.

Thank you for your summary. I will concentrate on issues with Windows 10 first and foremost.

Hey Guys... I'm still here I just don't check the forum that often. That and my organization decided to standardize remote access with Bomgar and not my tool any longer; which makes total sense since we are an enterprise and not SMB. Anyhow, I will make a valiant attempt to spend some time on...

What if I solved this with some sort of autocomplete? So for example there is a computer name in the list named "MyCrazyComputer" and in the Computer name text area as you start typing M+y+C it "AutoCompletes" to that computer name? Or would you rather have an actual find or search area to find...

Im so sorry guys! The thread notifications here don't appear to work very well. Anyway. I haven't updated the program in awhile because its just worked. In addition, our organization purchased Bomgar for remote support capabilities so this tool isn't used by our IT department as much as it used...

Hey guys sorry ive missed out on some of the discussions. Here are my quick thoughts. 1.) The elevated vs non-elevated issue. I would prefer to leave it in place. Reason being is that not only does UAC give it that extra run level, it also gives you the opportunity to enter credentials to...

I was only able to reproduce the problem once on that server and it hasnt come back. I was having issues with the server itself because the Remote Desktop Services role was installed. I am not sure if that contributed to the initial problem.. but its worth noting. Still doing more testing on my...

I happened to remember that I do have a Server 2008 R2 x64 system I can test on and I was able to reproduce the problem once. Looking in the Application event log, I found the following error: Windows detected your registry file is still in use by other applications or services. The file...

So there is not a log file in the %APPDATA%\RemoteControl folder? Only the tmp file? I did build in some logic to report an error if it couldn't write the files... so I would really expect it to be there. Are the servers you are connecting to also Windows Server 2008 R2? Are these x64 or x86...

This is because the non-domain joined workstation doesn't know anything about the domain credentials and how to validate them when doing a "run as different user". The difference between this and using /netonly with runas is that /netonly uses these credentials for the network activity versus...

1.8.1 Release Here are the changes: 1.8.1 1.) Fixed potential issue for conn.vnc file where it would append the file instead of overwriting it. 2.) Fixed ToDo font so it matches the other tabbed texboxes. 3.) Fixed issue with RealVNC EULA prompt coming up because of new RealVNC...

1.8.0 Release **SECURITY UPDATE** (Please update ASAP) Here are the changes: 1.8.0 1.) Refined some code for creating the VNC Server registry keys. Also created debug dump for this if there is a problem and organized alphabetically in code. 2.) Created a new module for the VNC Password...

I agree and have been thinking a lot about this lately. I know is not its in an ideal spot right now, but I do have it on my radar to change an make better in the future.

Ok I need to look into why this is happening.. Hopefully I can fix this asap. If it comes down to it, can we do some troubleshooting together remotely via a webex or similar? Thanks again for the information.

Yes we identified this back awhile ago (version 1.6.4) as a security issue and has been fixed. I would definitely recommend upgrading to the latest version (were now at 1.7.8 Pre-release).

Thanks for the report. I will fix this in the next release.

Thanks for sticking with it and pointing me in the right direction. I have implemented the change (albeit a bit different than what you posted) and it appears to work as designed in the limited testing I have done. Are you willing to try it out and test? RemoteControl 1.7.8 Pre-release...

1.7.7 Release Here are the changes: 1.7.7 1.) Now clears Host Name and Description field when finished with cleaning or error message etc. 2.) Double Clicking a computer in the list will populate the lower section and then start the connection process. 3.) Added a "ToDo" Tab on the...

' Thanks I will put this on the to do list.

Currently, the process for this application has always been to do a Shift Right Click-->Run As Different User. I don't foresee that changing that in near future. It does what it needs to do without adding even more complexity to the application.

Ok report back when you get a chance. I don't think I will have time to test that part myself anytime soon so you will probably beat me to it.

Can you as a test disable UAC and see if it makes a difference?

And this is on server 2008 R2? Is UAC enabled? Strange indeed.

It looks to me like it gets installed and runs, but wants to use the default port of 5900. When the error happens, try to telnet into the computer that you are connecting to over port 5900 and 5993. ex: "telnet <computername1> 5993" If its successful you should get the following message...

You can just send to my paypal details are linked in the following post: http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1039294290&postcount=106 Thank you!

I was thinking about this the other day. As it stands, if you single click it just fills the connection field. I may play with the idea of also adding a double click option. I am not sure if I will ever add the option to sort by name but its a nice thought. I wont ever add an export option...

Interesting that you are getting that error about connection refused. When you get the error can you check the remote computer (don't close the error window) and see if the VNC Server is running and started? Additionally can you also check to make sure that the port is open (5993)? Thanks

1.7.4 Release Here are the changes: 1.7.4 1.) Updated TightVnc to 2.7.10 2.) Verified working with Windows 8.1 VirusTotal: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/998b679cf66d7558ef3c87d433603a68d456c6b06cba0350826616e3a5d5880a/analysis/1379978664/ Download Link...

Ill keep this in the back of my head and play around with a few options.
