Prozess winvnc twice?

Post by Pac »

I installed 1.0.4. I installed it with the options:
Register as a system service.

Question beetween: For what is the option Start or restart UVNC Service. What will happen, if I not use this option. What´s the different?

After my PC is started, I see the blue Server-Icon in the tray. If I close the connection, the blue Icon disappear. But it came back after a couple of seconds. How can I close the server?

At least, the Prozess winvnc is twice in the taskmanager (processes). Is that correct? Why twice? What is wrong.

Thanks for answering and helping.

The installer install the service, but does not start it.
(reboot is needed to start service)
Start/restart option just start service without the need to reboot.

Icon disappear. But it came back: Running as service the service manage winvnc.exe, and restart it.
Stop:
stop service
stop winvnc

2X this is ok,
1X == winvnc service
1X == winvnc application

If I stop the service, the application-process will be closed automatically too, won´t it?

1st process, uvnc_service (winvnc.exe)
2nd process , winvnc as application and systray.
if you stop uvnc_service, it also auto close the winvnc application. yes. verified.
