Viewer History

Post by icepick1337 »

Hello :D
I have been using UltraVNC version 1.1.9.6 for a while and notice there was newer versions. So I thought I would upgrade. After installing version 1.2.0.4 I have noticed that I have lost all of my viewer history :o .
I know version 1.1.9.6 use to store the viewer history in the registry located at [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ORL\VNCviewer\MRU]. I have doubled checked after installing version 1.2.0.4 do see if it wiped my old history but the old registry entries are still there. In Newer versions of UltraVNC has the history storage location changed? If yes where is the location located?

Thank you guys for all of the help. I love this Program :thumbs:

Depend:
1) Folder of vncviewer is writable ( like a usb stick or a user folder), then it's saved in the same folder.
filename = options.vnc
2) Folder if vncviewer.exe is not writable, like "program files\..." then we need to save it at an user writable spot,
C:\Users\rudi\AppData\Roaming\UltraVNC\options.vnc
or when this fail
C:\Users\rudi\AppData\Local\Temp\options.vnc

This change was done to make the viewer portable..

Sample options.vnc

Code: Select all

[connection]
index=BA
A=localhost
B=10.10.10.10
