UltraVNC

tested with AUC default and one lower ( no popup) Removed and reinstalled for each setting In both cases alt-tab is working... software': windows 8 pro version no media center: language english remark: scroll lock ON (viewer pc) to send special keys remote. Thanks for trying. I appreciate it. This ...

Hi Rudi, I've only disabled/enabled UAC through the UI, i.e., I go to the Windows 8 Start screen and type "user control" which finds the "Change UAC settings" in the results under Settings. Selecting it brings up the UAC Settings UI and I use the slider to enable/disable. I've never used the ...

Hi Rudi, Yep, UAC is working fine as it does prompt me when I copy the authentication key files to, e.g., C:\Program Files\uvnc bvba\UltraVnc. So I, again, did the following: - Uninstalled and manually removed any files/folders NOT removed by the uninstall - Rebooted - Turned ON UAC at medium level ...

Strange indeed. It seems to only happen during the WLM start up and when it's checking for email. The crash happens AFTER the password is entered and the connection is attempted and in some instances after the viewer connected. http://img805.imageshack.us/img805/1486/vncviewerhasstoppedwork.png In a ...

This was tested on a windows 8 OS ( out of the box, without disabling, chaging anything). special keys require seperate exe uvnckeyboardhelper.exe ( installed via addon in th same folder as winvnc.exe) This exe use a special uiaccess=yes manifest ( UAC ON is required) If UAC was off duing install ...

Have any of you, who have experienced this problem, been able to resolve it? I'm still dead in the water and can't use Alt-Tab. There's got to be a way to get this working. Is it possible that the edition of Windows 8 can be the problem? In my case, both problematic computers are running Win 8 Pro ...

Today I discovered a new issue. I had run into this in the past, but wasn't sure what was causing it until today. The VNCViewer crashes if loaded when Windows Live Mail is running. Once I close WLM, then the viewer works fine. I'm talking about having WLM on the same computer where the viewer is ...

All was tested with the default settings of win8. The file has a UAC manifest with uiaccess=true. *A UAC manifest only works with UAC enabled. *Uiacess need to be signed by a thrusted certificat ( check if digital signature of "uvnckeyboardhelper.exe" is ok), this cert is checked during runtime ...

Yep. I just tried this and it didn't work: - uninstalled everything - turned UAC on at minimal setting - installed UVNC (as service) which caused UAC to pop up prompts so it is on - installed all addons except mirror driver - rebooted Alt-Tab and Win-X still NOT working. Very frustrating. Not sure ...

Yes, running it as a service. The tray icon tool tip shows "- service -" to verify it.

Any update on this?

All test i did were with UAC on. You could try to manual rename/remove the uvnckeyboardhelper.exe , possible the special handling of alt-tab is not needed with UAC off. The uninstaller didn't removed the addons and after reinstall the file was already there. Then it could make sense UAC off ...

w8hook -> video only, replace mirror driver In the addons is a keyboardhelper exe, this take care of the alt-tab. win8 running as service *alt-tab *winkey + x, winkey .c etc... The keys doesn't work, UAC in win8 is stricter then in win7/Vista and can only be simulated by exe that has a special ...

Another update on this. I don't have this issue with 1.1.8 installed on Windows 7. When I connect to that PC, Alt-Tab works fine. It's only when I connect to Windows 8 PCs that Alt-Tab isn't working. This does work on Windows 8 if I revert back to 1.0.9.6.2.

Anyone else having this issue?

Hi, I have Windows 8 Pro and the 1.1.8 install was working fine. I wanted to add the Addons, for the mirror driver and the extra Win8 support, so I downloaded and installed all the components. After doing so, Alt+Tab no longer works to switch between apps. The Win8 keys work fine from what I can ...

I wanted to post an update on this. The installation I had of Win8 was an upgrade from Win7. I was also experiencing a few other issues and decided to go ahead and start fresh. After installing a fresh Windows 8 Pro, everything seems to be working fine with uVNC 1.1.8 now. I'm not sure how relevant ...

Does the exe tell it's 1.1.8 ? or 1.1.7 ( winvnc.exe / vncviewer.exe) Installer use a text file to make the exe , could be that i forgot to update this text. What exe are you referring to? The 1.1.8 installation is fine and shows 1.1.8. What I'm referring to is the AddOns download. The image you ...

Hello,
I just upgraded to the 1.1.8 today from 1.0.9.6.2. I downloaded the AddOns (x64) as well, but when I run it, this is what I see. Seems to just be an older 1.1.7 installer? Am I missing something? Thank you for any clarification.

Hi, I just upgraded 3 PCs from 1.0.9.6.2 (all worked fine) to 1.1.8.0 and am having this issue only when connecting to the Windows 8 PC. It's running Win8 Pro. I can connect to my Windows 7 with 1.1.8.0 just fine. But once I connect to my Win8, I get about 2-3 seconds, if that, and then disconnects ...
