keyboard stops working in certain windows

Post by feelie75 »

I installed uVNC on the work computers here, but i've noticed when (not always) I connect to a remote computer, and open up our POS software, the keyboard input doesn't work anymore. The keyboard input works when I log into the software. And I can open Notepad and type stuff, but when I focus on our POS software, i can't type anything. When I walk over the physical machine, it can't type anything in those specific windows either! As if those windows aren't in-Focus. But typing works fine elsewhere on the computer, just not with that software.

It makes it hard for me to remote view a computer because I'm afraid of locking the operator out by making it so they can't type in their software after I connect. I've had to log the user out and back in to fix it previously.

Anyone heard of this? Why only our Eagle POS software? This may sound vague, sorry, but it's a little baffling. I'm using version 1.1.8.8. These are all Windows 7 machines. Thanks!
