Remote elevate not possible with MS-authentication

Post by o.madsen »

Hi there
Since stepping up from v. 1.3.8.1 to 1.4.0.6 (and newer), we have lost the option to remote-elevate anything. The moment the elevation credential prompt show, the viewer screen get black with the information "UltraVNC Running as application doesn't have permissions to acces UAC protected windows....".

Reverting to v1.3.8.1 without changing settings makes it work again.

I have digged and digged, and finally found the strange option, that if I disable the VNC Tray icon on the client, I´m again able to elevate.

Are there any arguments why we cannot elevate with the icon visible anymore? - seems really strange to me.

It seems that this issue no longer persist in v1.4.2.0 - thank you.
