Re: Problems using saved connection info
Looks like a file association issue.
This is normal done by the installer.
First, if you've already made the windows file type association associate for .vnc extension with the vncviewer.exe, open regedit and do a search for ".vnc" and delete all keys you find.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.vnc
Then make a little batch file containing the following:
ftype UltraVnc.Connection=C:\Program Files\uvnc bvba\UltraVnc\vncviewer.exe /config %%1
assoc .vnc=UltraVnc.Connection
Then right-click the batch file and choose "Run as Administrator".
Your .vnc files should then launch the vnc viewer correctly. Please note that you may need to change the path above to point to the location of your vncviewer.exe file if it's not installed in the same place as mine. Also note, the double percent sign in "%%1" at the end of the ftype line in the .bat file is NOT a typo. You need the double percent sign when you run a command like that inside a .bat file

Re: Problems using saved connection info
If I perform the above procedure from a Administrators type account of Windows 11 Enterprise, will this change be applied to all users?
Thanks
Bye

Re: Problems using saved connection info
This didn't work for me until I:
a) Quoted the file name
a) Quoted the file name
b) Deleted existing file association, everything matching:ftype UltraVnc.Connection=C:\Program Files\uvnc bvba\UltraVnc\vncviewer.exe /config %%1
assoc .vnc=UltraVnc.Connection
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\.vnc
