Having mousemover integrated in winvnc.exe

Post by Prisma »

As described in this discussion:
https://forum.ultravnc.net/viewtopic.php?f=72&t=35331

[...]In former times the most customers didn't had activated the screensaver.
But now, with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) nearly all customers have acivated a locking screen after a short time like e.g. 1 minute.[...]

So, we have very often the problem, that while doing remote support the screensaver blocks our work, e.g. while we are doing research or internal discussion of a problem.

At the moment there is no generally working solution within winvnc.exe. Especially without elevation.
Therefore it seems to be necessary to have an optional mousemover integrated within winvnc.exe.

We would very appreciate that.

It wil be a viewer settings.
The viewer can send an unused key like F15 or mouse jiggle if idle for x time.
This avoid any server settings/permissions app/service.
